Arsene Wenger admitted that it was "a dream" to watch the F.A. Cup final when he was a kid.

"The players had their hair well combed and the managers were relaxed at that time — they joked together on the bench. It was one of the competitions you could watch in black and white on television," said Wenger.

It is tempting to say the last time Arsenal won a trophy TV was still in black and white. For Arsenal fans, the nine years seems like 90 and it is a mounting statistic Wenger, his players and supporters want to end Saturday when the Gunners play Hull City in the F.A. Cup final at Wembley.
