25th January 2011 Arsenal 3 Ipwsich 0 (agg 3-1)
Arsenal turned on a great second half performance this evening, hitting 3 goals after the break to dismiss Ipswich Town and get into the final of the Carling Cup 2011.
In the 61st minute, Nicklas Bendtner silenced his critics with a nice Cruyff turn and curler past the Ipswich keeper. Defender Laurent Koscielny and captain Cesc Fabregas added two more as they eased into a higher gear than brave Ipswich.
Wenger's beloved Gunners haven't won any silverware for 6 seasons - they've put the big guns in for 30-40 mins to good effect in both FA Cup and Carling Cup competitions to good effect along with good performances from squad players.
Their name could well be on the 2011 Carling Cup - we shall just have to wait and see on the Premier League . . . and good luck Arsenal against Barca in the Champions League!

Let's not get carried away now.We have a final to go and perhaps more to go.
A decent result for Arsenal and a much needed final reached for them. A difference from last season though as they use more experienced players in the Carling cup instead of developing players, and they get to a final.
