Now That Arsenal are out of The Cup

bendtner.....I wonder if they will free him up to play for us (if required) in subsequent round(s)? They have nothing to lose now, surely, and it places him in "the shop window"
I know there's plenty who won't care but i think he brings something to the squad that others don't and i would rather trust MON's judgement over theirs.

Very good question - hopefully the clause stated something like - as long as both sides are in the competition...........

He isn't cup-tied, if that's what you mean, he's been with us all season. Obviously he wouldn't play against Arsenal even if he was fit.
