Champions League quarter-finals

[Neil Young]

Earlier today Sky Sports were breaking the Earth-shattering news that Alex Song is out. Oh lawks, that's a blow.

Bendtner will score a dozen just to prove Arsenal don't need Fabregas.

And Carl Henry is right - Arsenal do moan about being tackled and do get special protection from referees. Fortunately that won't save them from Barca.

I think Yaya Toure will partner Milito at CB. Busquets holding in midfield, behind Xavi and Keita, with Bojan, Messi and Henry or Pedro up top.

Agree with that. Still good enough to win.

Let me just say I actually feel really sorry for Wenger in this situation. At the start of last week you could have said Arsenal had a great chance to win the league and the champions league. Yet he's lost Van Persie for a long period and now Fabregas, Gallas, Song and Arshavin. Thats the whole spine of his team, if he had them available they may well have won the league. At the end of the season they will finish with no trophies and he will get a ton of stick again and I don't think thats fair. At the most crucial part of the season his job has been made impossible now

Know where you're coming from but for two seasons we've been without Torres as much as he's been available. We've been decimated by injuries and haven't had a fully-fit squad for what seems like an eternity, yet everyone tells us to man the **** up and injuries are just a part of the game.

So with that in mind...

Yeah I know we've been unlucky but no-one can expect Arsenal to win anything without those 5 players in the final month of the season. Those 5 are the equivalent to our Torres, Gerrard, Carra, Masherano and ......... Im not sure we have an Arshavin lol

[Shaggy]

It is undeniably very unlucky but I reserve my right to have no sympathy whatsoever.

[Liverpool]

6/1 for Arsenal to qualify is value.

[Shaggy]

Inter 1 up away at CSKA and 2-0 on aggregate.

[Leyton388]

Iniesta just got off the team bus.

[Jayesh87]

Iniesta, Toure, Henry all on bench for Barca

[-V-]

Shame Campbell isn't playing that would have been funny.
Barca's movement will be too much for Arsenal though, looking forward to it......
