After a humiliating 5-1 defeat to local rivals Tottenham Hotspur, Arsenal is now going to face Newcastle United at the Emirates Stadium on 26 January, Saturday in the fourth round FA Cup match. With that defeat, Arsenal lost their chance to play in the Carling Cup final this season. Added to that, Arsenal has made the headlines following the on field disagreement between two of their strikers Emmanuel Adebayor and Nicklas Bendtner. So, Arsenal has suffered double blow at

Arsenal stands second in the premier league table in goal difference with Manchester United, as both the clubs achieved 54 points each.
Newcastle United has not been a great season it the premier league with only 27 points from 23 matches. They are placed in the 12th position in the point table. So, fans are also disappointed with their performance. Star forward Michael Owen has not yet lived up to the expectation since his move from Real Madrid. What is more, the club is now missing some of their key players Obafemi Martins, Geremi and Abdoulaye Faye who are away on international duty with their nations in African Nations Cup 2008 tournament.

Arsenal is also missing Kolo Touré, Alexandre Song and Emmanuel Eboué for the African Nations Cup. To tell the truth, these three players had a big part behind Arsenal’s impressive run in this season. Aside from the fact they surrendered like a helpless side to Tottenham Hotspur, the Gunners were impressive throughout the season.

Goal.com reported:
Gallas said: "The whole club is upset, but we have to accept what happened and forget it.
"I know it is hard for our fans to lose 5-1 to Tottenham, especially as we had not lost to them for such a long time.
"In the warm-up before the game I told the players to be careful. But we conceded an early goal, lost our calm - and after that everything was no good for us.
"All the young boys wanted to go to Wembley and play in a cup final and now we are all sad because that's not going to happen.
Regarding his on field clash with Nicklas Bendtner, Arsenal’s Togolese striker Emmanuel Adebayor has apologized for what happened during Carling Cup match against Tottenham Hotspur.
Telegraph reported:
Adebayor said: "We are both passionate about this club and sometimes that can be projected in the wrong way. It was a mistake. We want to focus on the games ahead and rely on our squad's great togetherness to achieve a fantastic season. We are a strong unit and what happened against Spurs will strengthen our determination to compete for other targets.
"Overall, I think that we should have been more calm during the game and I am sorry for the disagreement with my team-mate Nicklas."
However, both the players are likely face punishment for the confrontation from Football Association. Arsenal authority may also come down hard on the matter. While Arsenal is facing series of problems, Newcastle United is hoping to revive their performance under the newly appointed manager Kevin Keegan.
