Wenger staying positive despite second cup exit in a week

Bolton 1 Arsenal 0

The Reebok Stadium has proved a graveyard for Arsenal in recent times and not even their proud cup record could survive another trip to the ground where the club has triumphed just three times since 1961.

Wenger will be sick of the sight of Stelios, who has a habit of scoring against the Gunners and did so once again five minutes from time to book Bolton’s place in the fifth round, drifting in behind Sol Campbell to meet Ricardo Gardner’s accurate cross and power an unstoppable header past Manuel Almunia.
