IT WAS great to hear Ole Gunnar Solskjaer,
Chris Hughton and Frank Lampard — managers who won the FA Cup as players — talking up the competition. All three had positive results on Saturday and that is no coincidence. After you have lifted the trophy, you always believe it is possible to do so again. When I was a young player at Arsenal, Don Howe told me you had 10 chances to win the FA Cup. I saw it as 10 green bottles — every time you got knocked out, one fell off the wall. Those bosses who have tasted glory are more eager to keep the dream alive for their players.
