The cup has produced some fantastic (and hilarious) snaps over the last couple of days - here are the very best of them
These guys all feature
Considering how much high drama we've seen this weekend, we don't imagine many fans have been left feeling underwhelmed by the FA Cup Fourth Round. Louis van Gaal negotiated a potentially ruinous tie against Derby County , Fabian Delph made an acrimonious return to Aston Villa and cup holders Arsenal were run mightily close by Burnley . Those were but a few highlights from an action-packed set of fixtures.
Unsurprisingly, those games have thrown up some ruddy excellent snaps - and seen some very funny moments captured on camera.
If you've already seen Ed Woodward's incredibly grumpy face, or Delph being taunted with a fake snake, then you have a (rough) idea of what's about to come.
If not, all the better. Without further ado, here are the best pictures of the round...
Derby County make Manchester United feel welcome at Pride Park
As a side note, imagine if Derby were to sign Loic Remy. The puns would be out of this world.
United fans mutiny in the stands
We think it's fair to say that Louis van Gaal's popularity rating was at an all-time low prior to the Derby match.United went on to win 3-1, of course. This lot might have felt slightly sheepish at full time.
Ed Woodward is the grumpiest man alive
United's season is clearly taking it's toll on poor Ed.Look into his eyes. Feel the pure, unbridled rage. Now run. Run for your life.
Derby fans provide the obligatory tinfoil cup
Van Gaal ALMOST cracks a smile
After incessant reverses for his side over the last couple of months, we haven't seen Louis crack a smile on the sidelines for a long, long time.
He almost managed it after the Derby victory. Almost.
Spurs fans enjoy their opener against Colchester
Though we all enjoy a "David versus Goliath" story in the cup, sometimes - just sometimes - it's fun to see the minnows get a bit of a battering.
That's exactly what Tottenham served up to Colchester in their clash at the Weston Homes Community Stadium. The Essex side had their dreams of cup glory brutally crushed and, as you can see above, Spurs fans loved every second of it.
Delph gets a warm welcome at Villa Park
Will Aston Villa fans ever forgive their ex-captain for abandoning them? No, no they will not.
*sssssss*
Leandro Bacuna gets angry - you won't like Bacuna when he's angry
Manchester City's visit to Villa got pretty heated at times - and not just because of Delph.Bacuna allowed his rage to get the better of him at this point. We do not condone such behaviour.
One Villa fan gets a little bit carried away
By getting your belly out, of course!
Arsenal stars have a great big cuddle
There were heartwarming snuggles at The Emirates after Calum Chambers' opener against Burnley.
Just look at Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain's face. He's never been so happy.
Shrewsbury keep the art of giantkilling alive
Giantkilling! Plucky underdogs! Anything can happen! Thanks for single-handedly keeping FA Cup cliches alive, Shrewsbury.
Young Jack Grimmer looked positively overjoyed as he celebrated his last-minute winner against Sheffield
Wednesday with the fans. This is what the cup's all about.
*sheds a happy tear*
Back at The Emirates, Joey Barton goes full Joey Barton
There's nothing funny about barging Alexis Sanchez over an advertising hoarding for no apparent reason.As for Barton's attempt to style it out immediately afterward - now that IS funny.
Sanchez entertains the fans with his response
And, finally, Tom Heaton sums up the pain of defeat
The cup is an emotional rollercoaster. You've just got to ride it.So there we have it - those are the best snaps of the Fa Cup Fourth Round so far.
