Arsenal cruised to a 5 - 0 win over Leyton Orient, who had taken the Gunners to a replay and won themselves a trip to Las Vegas as reward from their chairman.
Nicklas Bendtner grabbed a rare but classy hat trick, while Chamakh scored his first since November, as Clichy finished the game off with his first for Arsenal. The convincing win sets up a quarter final tie with Manchester United - always a mouth watering encounter, especially considering this seasons title race.
Arsenal predictably enjoyed the majority of possession - 65% to Orient's 35%, while Arsenal gathered a total of 9 shots on target to the away sides disappointing solitary one.
Arsenal play Sunderland on Saturday, which Cesc Fabregas, their injured captain announced he may play a part in as the Barcelona second leg approaches. The daunting schedule has taken its tole on Arsenal and has claimed a number of injuries, including absenties Theo Walcott and Robin van Persie who will both miss the trip to the Nou Camp.
Hopefully for Arsene Wenger however, the goal scoring form that his strikers showed tonight with a combined four goals can continue into the coming weeks to help them through this difficult period.
