      100% true, the fact that Van Persie smashed it in the direction of the goal played no part in the goal whatsoever.

        God there's some bitter people about
        Messi misses a one-on-one - and the lino wrongly disallows a 2nd Barca goal. Could (and should) have been 3-0 Barca at half time. So not a 'freak' result, but a bit misleading.

        If this gives Arsenal a boost to go and win the title, good on them

          Arsenal should have been 2-0 down at half time if it wasn't for a poor mistake by the linesman. They got lucky. Facht.

            That ball doesn't go in if Valdes covers the near post.

                Arsenal were chasing shadows for much of the match but credit to them, they kept coming trying to exploit any let up in Barca's pressing game. They were still outclassed, the result is a travesty.

                  You could see when they upped it at the end of the game they could tear Arsenal apart. There's no way they won't score at home. It would be preposterous to suggest otherwise.

                    Barcelona's main strength is that they can play two of the best playmakers in the world in central midfield, Xavi and Iniesta.

                    Remove one of them and replace him with Keita and you get a much worse central midfield. The opposition can then concentrate much more on Xavi/Iniesta and let Keita do the passing bit. That started to happen straight after Pep took off Villa.

                    Pep still make some big big mistakes.

                      Is it so hard to take that the linesman ****ed up a decision and Barca should've been 2-0 up at HT?

                      Why does stating the facts equate to being bitter?

                        Copy and paste my quotes about Arsenal that suggest i support them, not the ones that say they're not **** or they're not a good side.

                        Rage at the suggestion of them being **** was tangible? nah, but maybe rage at such a stupid and false comment.

                          Possession will be key in the 2nd leg. Tonight, Arsenal pushed on with pace and bodies, when they had the ball - cant see that in the Nou Camp. If Barca limit Arsenal possession, it'll be attack v defence, with the odd Arsenal counter-attack.

                              Seems to be a general dislike and bitterness for Arsenal, they outplayed Barca in teh secodn half, all Barca's posession was for **** and Arsenal throughly deserved the win. Credit where credit is due IMO.

                              Should be a fantastic game in second league, can't wait for it.
