Was someone slagging him off? Or was that a separate thought that I 100% agree with.

No 2 thoughts. At 4.30am it gets a bit muddled

Tremendous credit to Arteta. He's turned us from a raggedy arse shambles to an organised resilient unit.
Ceballos has really impressed today, and Aubameyang - what can you say. Credit to the whole team.
Absolutely buzzing.

Never thought I’d say this, after the shirt throwing incident.

But effin’ fantastic Granit Xhaka.

Agony. Even longer than the Parma final.

Yes. We will always remember this season. For the good and bad. No matter what you say its great to win a trophy

Wow. Given the strength of the quarter final line up (probably the strongest ever) that is a heck of an achievement.

Arteta, Aubameyang, Ceballos, the whole squad

I never doubted us.

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees.
A fantastic end to an ‘interesting’ season.
Onwards and upwards.

Arteta knows.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS BABY!!!!!!
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

I *%^@*** love this club!!!!!!

Maitland miles
Your future is here!!!!
Faith has been shown in you!!!!

Incredible end to the season. Worst season for 30 years in the league but we end up with a trophy!

Rub of the green on the chelsea injuries and the red card but Chelsea didn’t look like scoring at all after the 10th minute.

Totally deserved. Fantastic performance and huge character to come back from the goal down.

Oh Martinez
Bless him!!!
He is in tears
Making me nearly cry

Martinez emotional at the end interviewer asking him about his family. Love this guy.

It’s a shame these players can’t lift that cup in front of the fans.

Fantastic.

Well done.

After that season, and considering the teams involved in the semis, that is a fantastic achievement. Not to be underestimated.

Stupid cup trying to get Aubameyang sent off

I actually enjoyed the fact that all the squad plus helpers got into the trophy photo

3 bad injuries and a soft sending off.

Oh dear. What a pity. How sad.

Only 3 shots on target all game from both teams. Chelsea had all their 3 inside the opening 10 mins. They will moan about injuries and the red card but quite simply Chelsea did not do enough to win that game.

Congratulations Arsenal!
Well done Arteta!
Fantastic job, Captain Aubameyang !
Salute you all in the team!

This was a first rate team effort.

This is such a boost for the rebuild.
FA Cup prize money
Quarter-Final winners - £720,000
Semi-Final winners - £1,800,000
Final winners - £3,600,000

All helps along with the win, Europa which could be a help attracting players along with the money from that. This is what it is, we've got a long way to go, but this is such a bonus.

Holy *%^@. How this horrible, seven year long nightmare of a season ended with a trophy I'll never understand.

Huge credit to Arteta and the team. I guess all that's left is to just take whatever transfer funds we have and give it all to Aubameyang. What a player.

FA Cup winners again. *%^@*** brilliant!

What a gutsy performance.

Everyone gets a 10 for effort.

As has been the case more recently, we look like an organised team.

Great win. Now need to somehow go back to sleep.

If you want the cherry on top of the FA Cup final cake, our win demotes Spurs from automatically starting the europa league in the groups stages and makes them have to play a few europa league qualifiers - no doubt in some far flung land - all due to start in about 6 weeks time for them.

Luiz bossed Giroud today. Didn’t let him get in to he game at all.

First half Arteta’s tactics were spot on. Balls over the top again. It is a tactic a lot of Arsenal fans have been crying out for for a few years with our quick strikers or simply a way to avoid a high press.

This is the start of the rebuild. I have the faith in Arteta and his ideas, detail, innovation, enthusiasm and his ‘non negotiables’. Start the squad churn now, Arteta will have learnt so much about his players in t TG he last half a season. Let’s see what he can do with players he wants rather than ones he had to take.

Hi socrates. You’re right, but risking the pedantry of John for using everyday language I would give Ceballos 11 out of 10 today. For creativity he may not be a match for Brady, Bergkamp, Hudson or Pires. But for work rate he’s magnificent and we need that as well as his decent level of creativity. I hope we keep him.

Danny Murphy does get some things right. Even after Aubameyang was declared the official man of the match, he said Ceballos was the best player on the pitch today.

How awful for them!!!
Bloody chavs
Last year europa final they pummeled us so this is extra sweet.
Pulisic proper enjoyed that goal and I felt sick and listless but boy did we come back.
It was beautiful to watch.
We really needed this trophy

Well done to Mikel and the lads. That is one of the most satisfying FA Cup wins of my life. Alright they had injuries and a red but no mistake we deserved to win today. Apart from the first ten minutes we were much the better team. Incidentally I wish Pépé’s strike would’ve counted...beautiful finish.We should keep Holding and just play him in Cup Finals!!
Fourteenth FA Cup, we get in Europe and bump Spurs to the qualifiers....a highly agreeable Saturday here in Philadelphia.
Sorry for the fans who couldn’t witness this tremendous victory live.
Well done Arsenal. Love you to bits.
By the way Bernard is this the first AFC final you’ve missed? Sorry if it is but still a great day for all Gooners
Bit early here but I think its beer o clock!!

Brilliant news Rich.

Lets hope they get Sporting Mongolia

Just read their first game is in 19 days...that right? If so Jose will be pleased!

Eddie Howe has left Bournemouth by mutual consent.

In other news, Gunners win FAC 14 times. Wonderful win for ex Arsenal player and now Arsenal manager, Mikel Arteta right out of the gate. Congrats and may there be more trophies. So stuff it Stan.

Agreed, he's also our best goal celebrator, every time we score he looks like he's just won the World Cup. That, and the effort he puts into every game under Arteta, shows he really loves playing for Arsenal. We need those kind of players going forward.
