If Arsene Wenger and the Arsenal players were slipping into any kind of a complacent frame of mind ahead of the fifth round FA cup tie against the lowest ranked team still in the famous ould cup competition, then the shock result o9f Lincoln City today should knock it out of them.
It had already been an amazing run for the Imps from Lincoln who have already got past Premier League chasing Brighton and an another Championship side in Ipswich Town, but they really hit the headlines today after beating EPL club Burnley to become the first non-league club to ever reach the last eight.
It would be an even bigger upset for Sutton United if they beat the Gunners as we are higher in the league and they are only 17th in the National League while Lincoln are top. But I think the fact that Burnley were at home today where they have been very strong and successful all season is a massive wake up call and should serve to remind everyone at Arsenal that odd things can happen in the FA cup.
Will this giant killing make sure that Arsenal are ready to ensure it does not happen to us?
