    Arsenal

    Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta, speaking to Sky Sports: “A really good performance over a team where the manager in every action is so committed.

    “We understood the game and what we had to do, we did this the right way.

    “They gave us some issues, they always do, but we created a lot of shots and situations without being very clinical, we adjusted a few things at half time and we were better and stronger.”

    On Ben White: “With Ben and with some others, he had a bug, so he wasn’t feeling great.

    “We had some strong individual performances. They deserved the opportunity and grabbed it. We have hunger and desire and players willing to work, we need to carry on with this run and win more matches.”

    Matt: Proud of the way Saints fought back tonight. But strange choice of penalty takers, why Walcott and Smallbone got the nod over Adam Armstrong makes no sense!

    Chet: Penalties are the cruellest of ways to determine the winner. Feel for the Saints.

    Not a lot of footballers are able to win a trophy in their careers.

    You've got to take the opportunities when they come. If you get a chance to have a run in any cup, you take it with both hands.

    It was an absolutely brilliant cup tie, and it was excellent with the penalties at the end.

    Reece James was calmness personified at the end.

    Poor, poor penalty from Smallbone. He leant back and up and over it went.
