Arsenal ended Sutton United’s FA Cup adventure last night after a 2-0 victory at Gander Green.
Theo Walcott and Lucas Perez scored for the Gunners to set up another non-league clash in the quarter-final with Lincoln City.
But Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger did leave Sutton with one injury concern over forward Alex Iwobi.
Iwobi came off in the second half after Sutton defender Jamie Collins clattered him.

And the 20-year-old posted a a picture of his right foot wrapped in a bandage on his Snapchat account.
Iwobi could be a doubt for Arsenal’s next game, their Premier League trip to Anfield to face Liverpool next Saturday.
Arsenal are not in action this weekend as their match with Southampton has been postponed because they are facing Manchester United in the EFL Cup final.
Arsene Wenger’s men have nearly two weeks to prepare for the Reds, which helps explain why he chose to replace Iwobi with star man Alexis Sanchez last night.
“He is a guy who has a strong body,” Wenger said on Sanchez.
“I think on this pitch it is the guy who does not have good co-ordination, who is heavy on his feet, who is in trouble.
“Alexis is more a guy who has very good co-ordination, he is light on his feet. I don't think it was a risk.”
