I was at University in Sheffield Went to the replay (chauffeured by one Amy Lawrence). Merse did indeed score a great goal in the first game. Wrighty got the winner in the replay passed Lukic (the lob –*actually a chip - IUFG may be thinking of was another game much later, with Dennis and Merse also scoring). Travelling back to Sheffield was fun as we had to go a different way to most of the other Arsenal fans. The long string of replays was a couple of years earlier
Merson was 25th Jan 93 then.... I missed the game as a) was my birthday b) was house hunting that evening

you're right, of course, the goal I was thinking of was this won
“Other clubs never came into my thoughts once I knew Arsenal wanted to sign me.”

That finish was a thing of beauty, i. Got the luck of the bounce for it to run into his path (sure that was how Dennis meant it to work out) but Johnnie had no chance with the finish

it was. the bounce off his face, the little half twist all followed up by an exquiste finish.
we forget how lucky we were to have him.
