If Chelsea win the FA cup, will it be because their path has been eased?

Answer 1

Yes they have had easy peasy games.

Answer 2

Chelsea if, they win, you can now say that their path has been easy... but in my opinion, no FA Cup winner really wins as a fluke.. FA Cup is really big competition and a cup tied.

I am not Chelsea supporter and I think Chelsea is disgrace in football by buying nonsense players at nonsense fees with nonsense wages. but if they win, they deserve to win the FA Cup.. it's a long way to play, and never could go wrong once in the competition, FA cup is oldest competition as well as very good cup-tied in the world.. you have to be the best to win each round (each game).

hope this helps

Answer 3

No it will be because of a lucky streak in the draw. Arsenal already deserve to win it. The only real opposition to Chelsea are the usual suspects; Liverpool, Arsenal, ManUtd, with maybe Spurs, Bolton, Newcastle able to offer a good game. As Liverpool are out and Arsenal/Man Utd mopping up the rest of the top flight clubs it seems Chelsea may be destined for Wembley.

On the other side of the coin will Man Utd or Arsenal be better prepared for Chelsea having played the harder games? I think so. Also they will feel they have earned their place and fight harder for the win.

Whatever happens I wish them all luck.

It may turn out that Chelsea have to play both Man Utd and Arsenal to win the cup, and if that's the case they will probably deserve it....

Answer 4

Ofcourse it is, they've had three lower league opositions, breezed passed macclesfield, not forrest and probably norwich or blackpool. Look at Arsenal they've played all prem league teams so far in the fa cup and the majority of games in the carling cup aswell apart from west brom. These draws are a joke.

Answer 5

There is no easy path in football but whoever wins deserves it.

Can you imagine the young Arsenal to beat Liverpool in Anfield so easily? This just means anything is possible in football there is no impossibility for any young team to knock Chelsea out of the competition.

Thanx!

Answer 6

I think you are referring to the Carling Cup and not the FA Cup.
Chelsea is lucky not to face any Premier League clubs during their run-up. However, not to take away their credits, they do have to excel against the non-Premier League team as the FA Cup is known for its giant killing experiences. Many lower League teams tend to step up their games when playing against the Premier League teams and many Premier League teams fall victims to them. In the semi-final, Chelsea were held to a draw against Wycome and they managed to beat them during the replay. So there is not easy path to any team who make it to the final.

Answer 7

Chelsea have had it easy with 3 none prem teams at home while man united have had 3 prem teams at home and arsenal have had Liverpool away and Bolton home & away then if they get past Bolton Blackburn at home. maybe its just a lucky streak in the draw but i wonder how much roman has paid for a easy cup run lol

Answer 8

For sure ther favourites to win but how can you say the path has been eased? The draw is just that - luck of the draw!

Answer 9

Yes

Answer 10

They have gotten the luck of the draw. I think they would'nt be around had they met stronger opposition. The way they have played lately against top clubs has not been impressive.

Answer 11

for arsenal and united to get to the quarter finals they will have beaten prem opposition all the way.

arsenal would have beaten liverpool and bolton away, then rovers. none of those are easy games.

arsenal-man united would be a great first final at the new wemberly
