Back when Arsenal last played at the Madejski Stadium, in a Capital One Cup tie on 30 October, Arsene Wenger must have left the stadium an extremely satisfied man. After all, his team had been 4-0 down against Reading, but recovered to win a thrilling match 7-5 after extra-time. And the Gunners, thanks to a show of character, determination and no little skill, were still in the competition and in with a chance of winning a trophy. Things were looking up. And with lowly Bradford awaiting in the quarter-final and the two Manchester clubs already eliminated, glory seemed within touching distance.
