The nightmare FA Cup Final for Sherwood haters
It's the FA Cup Final the Tim Sherwood haters were dreading, do they now want Arsenal to win or an Aston Villa team managed by Sherwood?
Just like at Spurs when he got Emmanuel Adebayor firing in goals he has got another out of form striker firing them in again, this time Christian Benteke. The man who downed Spurs did the same to Liverpool at Wembley in the semi-final. Personally I think it's totally wrong playing semi-finals at Wembley, it rather devalues the whole 'getting to Wembley' meaning but that's another topic.
Fifth and sixth places in the Premier League qualify for the UEFA Europa League so now that we are above Southampton beating them is vital to give us a gap. We may well need it as our goal difference is inferior. If we sink down to seventh then we would have to rely on Arsenal winning the FA Cup and we don't want to be in that position. Despite what some fans might want, players and the club want and need European football, without it Ben Davies for instance would hardly have played a game this season with Danny Rose being the first choice centre-back.
Why would another striker want to come to the club knowing they are going to be sitting on the bench? It just makes signing players that much more difficult and of course our income dictates how much wages we can pay under Financial Fair Play, as well as how much we are permitted to spend on transfers.
I will certainly be cheering on Villa, I don't want Arsenal winning a trophy.
