I'd Back alves to deal with that, but who would back clichy to deal with, alves alone, much less Messi+alves Vs clichy, but i see your point.
i really hope abidal is back for this one, pep said last year season, that he would have liked to avoid arsenal in the CL, because they play most similarly to us, and thus will know how to get at our weak points, and i see his point.

My pride, will have no effect on the game, as long as the player remain humble, they we should be good, but i can't remain humble, at the sight of cesc.

arsenal are barca lite though.
cesc and arseshaving are the only two arse players who [i think] would get in the barca team.
cant see it happening arsenal fans, not at all.

Almunia is Arsenal weak link. If only we had a decent goalie.
Also a shame Gallas is missing the first leg. Campbell is gonna get raped.

Agree with Lrd - Barca are obviously very good but never play a side like Arsenal.
They will play excellent footballing sides but never footballing sides with Arsenal's pace.

Don't worry about that. Our full-backs don't need a second invitation to get forward.

We're fucked. Its finally sank in.
The only way we can do this is if Henry gets confused and thinks he's still playing for Arsenal. Barca with 9 men I can handle.

Nothin better to do.
Only in Messiah's world is Busqutes, a player that all Barcelona fans moan when he starts, is as good as one of our best performers this season.
I may have forgotten Arshavin. Is Pedro better than Arshavin Messiah?
I like how my self-consciously baised player to player comparison is still probably more realistic than Messiahs.
Song may be one of your best performers, but that doesn't make him world class or anyything, he is no better than busquets, we would probably be complain about him too if he were at barca, i put busquets in there to give arsenal someone to compete against in midfield, you do know i still have YAYA MONSTOR in my pocket right, don't make me use him.
No pedro isn't better that arshavin, but i didn't remember that other two guys name (the whoevers)
Your arrogance is astounding. This Barcelona team is fucking good but its not the be all and end all. Last week you were all doom and gloom, this week, after beating a mediocre Stutgart team 4-0, you're the undisputed champions of the world again.
Gallas, Vermaelon, Arshavin, RVP and Cesc could all enter your starting line up and it would be just as strong.
Please tell me how Busquets is as good as Song?
Positioning? No
Tackling? No
Passing? No.
I'm genuinely curious.
Barcelona also defend well and, whether picking Sergio Busquets or Yaya
Touré, have a holding midfielder of a calibre still lacking at the
Emirate

Since Pep's has changed to a 4-2-3-1. Henry's been playing quite well.

Should be two interesting ties because both team play a similar attacking way. Messi is the poison number 1, hope he's in a bad day when the two teams meet.

It's better to go out in the quarters against the recent champions than to go out to some unknown Frenchie, Russian or German team of course...

Re: The Arsenal v FC Barcelona
very true. Defence isn't our strong point anyway. So we've to attack and defend forwards if we lose the ball. Also would like our players to take on their opponents, i.e. try to go past them, make them foul us. Maybe this time they'll have somebody send off.Ricardo Wetzel wrote:arsenal must take initiative to have a chance...

Took me a while to crack it. Lrd is a clever boy.
I was tempted to go for 4-1 because of Bender = Ibrahimovic but decided against it at the last minute.
