Champions League knockout phase

[Rudo]

Arsenal 1-2 Barca

Villa and Pedro for Barca. Walcott for Arsenal.

Arsenal's defence is ****e, if Barca are on it, they COULD rip them.

[Rudo]

Of course they could and man for man they're the better team but you could also say if Fabregas, Nasri, Walcott and RVP are on their game they'll cause the Barca defence problems too.

I'll go out on a limb and say 1-4 Barca, Messi hat trick.

It's a plastic flag frenzy!

[Craig_H]

Arsenal fans have got their plastic flags out

Fabregas, Nasri, Walcott and RVP dont batter teams for 4 or 5 on an almost weekly basis.

And the whole point of WHY Barca are so amazing is that there's hardly any 'if' involved - they are 'on their game' practically every week - that's the whole point.

What is it with southern teams and plastic flags. Can they not make up their own banners.

[DeanoUK]

Barca's away kit is shocking

Quality Barca banner. Hi London, we'll be back May 28th.

As i say, Barca are the better team but the point i'm trying to make is, if them 4 Arsenal players are on form they can cause problems, which is just stating the obvious really.

Just as you're stating the obvious by saying if Barca are on form, they'll rip Arsenal apart. You used the word 'if' yourself btw.

That Song boy is one rare looking cunt.

Well yes, but if you took those four Arsenal players and compared them to say, Messi, Pedro, Iniesta and Xavi (not to mention Villa), people would laugh at the comparison.

Obviously they're not at that level but i don't think Walcott, RVP, Nasri and Fabregas are lacking in ability themselves

All 4 would walk into the Liverpool team(and many others).

Messi...so close.
