I think they will mate.

I hope its an all english final once more

Fiddy · 19-03-2010, 10:53 PM

They can do it, but they need to take there chances, like bendtner the other week, absolutely criminal the amount of chances he missed. arsenal in general make a lot of chances, but they dont have a deadly finisher like the henry days, thats what there missing.

Mr Brannen · 19-03-2010, 10:59 PM

Arsenal are as good going forward as Barca ON THERE DAY, they will have to be on it but at the end of the day if they wanna win it they will have to play Manu U and Barca sometime so why not now.
Barca were brilliant on wednesday but I cant help but think theyre still beatable against a physically strong team, I would love to know why Guardiola swapped Eto for Ibrahimovich as well ,

james kiely · 19-03-2010, 11:02 PM

eto looked good the other night ,im with you on that ,ibrahimovich is a tosser imho

p.cressie · 19-03-2010, 11:30 PM

Be interesting to see Wengers line up. Fergie packs the midfield and Plays 4-5-1 against the likes of Barca. Do you Gooner fans think wenger will take the game to Barca and play the normal arsenal way, or try and contain Barca? On paper united should beat Munich as they are not the team they used to be, but we've never played well against them

skeg · 20-03-2010, 05:25 AM

Awesome draw and really looking forward to some of the ties. I mean it couldn't really have gone much better for us with Arsenal, Barcelona, Inter/Mourinho and his media circus on the opposite side of the draw. Anyone can beat anyone on the day and Bordeax under Blanc probably look the team of the competition but you have to be happy with that, great chance.

I hope Arsenal win, badly, but don't reckon they will because they play pretty football at times but not often against the big teams. Barce have the game/team as well as the individual stars, Arsenal don't really IMO. They could do with a Fletcher.

KSA-Cossie · 20-03-2010, 11:26 AM

I think the arse might do barcelona

Coldo · 20-03-2010, 11:52 AM

I very much doubt Arse will beat Barca.

Arsenal can play the passing/fast counter attack game against the likes of wigan and portsmouth and wanky PL teams, i don't think they will be able to play like that against Barca.

JayZetecS · 20-03-2010, 12:16 PM

If wenger played a more physical team with the likes of viera in the middle they could try and stop the likes of Xavi.

Barcelona have a VERY dodgy defence,thats why they defend from the front.

I think Eto'o for Zlatan is a good move tbh,Messi and Henry/Bojan can do the running etc

Zlatan is 6'5,thats a hell of a target man,he has excellent feet and his positioning on the field is only bettered by Villa!

My question is WHY did Ferggie bin Gerard Pique and keep Darren Gibson!?!?!? thats stupidity!

Barca will win the CL again imho

scortpower · 20-03-2010, 01:00 PM

as a arsenal fan i dont think wenger will just try and contain barca. arsenal will take the game to them its not arsenals style to sit back.
I really hope we do them

Gibson plays in centre midfield, Pique centre defence so why was it stupid?!?! Pique wasn't playing week in week out and wanted to go back to Barca

And Viera plays for City now

Gibson is a midfierlder, Pique is a centre back and Viera doesn't even play for Arsenal anymore!

I also dont think you can call Danny Alves, Puyol, Pique or Marquez or Abidal, or even Militio a "very dodgy defence"! Probably one of the best in the competition, imo!

Ryan_3 · 20-03-2010, 01:20 PM

inter will win it

about fuckin time we do..

Barca are the only team who play better football than us but yeah we can beat them on our day, not over 2 legs though...hate to say it.

How we get this route to the final

You think they're beatable by physical teams then wonder they swapped Eto'o for Ibrahimovic lol? he won't get as many goals, but twice the assists and opens up the final 3rd for all their attack, look at people like Pedro etc. maturing as a result.

Gerard Pique was originally a defensive midfielder

Barcelona cant defend corners and thats FACT!
Danny Alves is shit in the air and plays to high up the field.

I was ment to say someone Viera esque,an i fully agree Arsenal NEED a proper striker.

I disagree that Barca's defence is the best,they've been proven to be vunerable for the last 2-3seasons.

You have to agree that Ibrahimovic is a good signing though?a totally different dynamic added up front

Man United did it over 2 games against Barcelona in the semi finals when they won it in 2008 and despite possession kept their chances to hardly anything, Chelsea also over two games last year shut them out, were unlucky.

Football is about tactics, there is no right or wrong game. I reckon Tony Pullis should take charge of Arsenal for this game.

Johnny Evans that's why, Fergie ain't stupid. Gibson is a midfielder and totally different player. Evans already has lots of big games under his belt despite two of the best CB's in the world at United.

Rio Ferdinand was a striker, Schmeichel played outfield etc.

focusrrx87 · 20-03-2010, 03:39 PM

Barca Aint that good away in Europe and k agree there're defence isn't the best aswel, stuttgard got round the back many times on Wednesday and beat barca 1-0 in the first leg. Arsenal have a gd chance against them the way they pass and move can rip barca apart only concern is against the top level of man u and chelsea they got battered this year! But i think 1-0 at home and 0-0 at the nou camp arsenal go through. Hope so coz as a man u fan id rather play arsenal if we both make the final. Lol
