Arsenal set up a clash against Manchester United in the last eight of the FA Cup with a 5-0 thrashing of Leyton Orient.
The Gunners showed no sign of a hangover from the shock of losing to Birmingham at Wembley on Sunday as the npower League One side were brushed aside in clinical fashion.Marouane Chamakh set Arsene Wenger's men on their way in the seventh minute with his first goal since the end of November, before Nicklas Bendtner's well-taken double put the result beyond doubt ahead of the interval.
The Denmark striker completed his treble to boost his hopes of playing against Barcelona in the Nou Camp this time next week from the penalty spot, with full-back Gael Clichy netting a rare effort with 15 minutes left.
Only Tomas Rosicky, who would later become another untimely Arsenal injury casualty as he limped off, remained from the starting XI left crestfallen at Wembley. Teenage defender Ignasi Miquel made his first home appearance and 19-year-old winger Connor Henderson a senior debut.
