A comfortable two nil win against championship high flyers Middlesbrough saw Arsenal go through to the FA Cup quarter final. The game saw Gabriel make his Arsenal debut after his move from Villarreal but the Arsenal side was near full strength, featuring the likes of Sanchez, Cazorla and Ӧzil.
Arsenal came out in control playing a good possession based football but also moving it round comfortable and with ease. This Arsenal performance made a very good Middlesbrough side look ordinary. Cazorla captained the Arsenal side today and played in a much deeper role than what we are used to however, he showed his ability often dictating the play when receiving the ball from the Arsenal centre halves.

The Gunners book their place in the fifth round of the FA Cup with a 3-2 victory over Brighton at the Amex stadium. In a weekend of massive cup upsets, Arsenal kept their cool as they had to hold on to a one goal lead for the last 15 minutes of the game despite looking so comfortable in the first half and spells in the second half to overcome the struggling Championship side.
Player ratings
Wojciech Szczesny- 5- not an awful lot of goalmouth action for Woj to contend with on his return the starting line-up and despite not keeping a clean sheet poor defending resulted in the two Brighton goals rather than poor goalkeeping.
