venue : Emirates Stadium - London Referee: R. Madley Time : 6:30pm [size=20pt]MATCH PREVIEW[/size] Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has said he is determined to enjoy another successful year in the FA Cup and has set his sights on defending the trophy the club won last May. The Gunners came back from two goals down against Sunday's opponent in last year's final, with Aaron Ramsey scoring an injury-time winner to end Arsenal's nine-year wait for silverware. "We want another cup run and we want to, if possible, keep the trophy. We have won it five times in my period in charge, so that means we know the importance that it has," said the Frenchman. "It is a great memory, but we have a big job to do on Sunday and after [more games in] the Premier League, then we have the Champions League. "What is for sure is that we have room for improvement and we have to manage to do that quickly." The Arsenal boss insisted he would not have left the club had they not beaten Hull at Wembley last year. "Walk away? No. I have just won my 600th game out of 1,000 - that means I have won 60% of the games and after 18 years, you would not be serious to walk away for losing one game," added the Frenchman. "I do my job as well as I can and I respect my contract. It [the suggestion he would leave] was because we didn't win a trophy for years and people want that." Hull boss Steve Bruce says he will "count up the numbers" before selecting his team. "There were a lot of tired bodies after the Everton game and it was our physical work-rate that was the difference in that game. We had energy about us that Everton struggled with," "Let's not forget that the FA Cup was magical for us last season. We couldn't have picked a much more difficult tie to start with this time - especially after playing three games in six days - and I will freshen the side up. "We'll see what we can do and hopefully we'll go there and give them a good game." team news England forward Theo Walcott is expected to start for Arsenal in their third round FA Cup tie against Hull. Goalkeeper David Ospina is set to replace Wojciech Szczesny in Sunday's clash at the Emirates, while Mesut Ozil is close to full fitness after injury. Hull boss Steve Bruce is likely to make changes with Tom Huddlestone and Stephen Quinn back after suspension. Andrew Robertson, Liam Rosenior and Gaston Ramirez will not feature after suffering injuries against Everton. |
