    Don't bother with your own opinion though.



    Just as the ball was played through there I was thinking "Barcelona seem to have had the ball uninterrupted for a while now."
    Arsenal players mostly slow getting back.

    This truly is the battle of the masters of attack. I can see at least another 3 goals. Arsenal will have to dig deep now. I'm not gonna write them off just yet.

    Changes nothing. Arsenal needed to score anyway.

    Are you saying it was a foul then?


    Denilson cleanly takes the ball imo. After that sure he goes into Messi but it annoys me how the art of tackling (and it is an artform) is being removed from the game

    I like tough tackles. Always have.

    I thought it was pretty much the same as craig Gardeners tackle on fabergas both perfectly legal imo anyway.

    They have to use every trick in the book and scrap for every ball, sort of like Bolton when they play at the Emirates. The sort of team Wenger gives out about. Arsenal are the bitches now. :D

    Arsenal are a shambles at the back. The massive pitch is doing them no favours.

    It's a brutal bit of management by Wenger. He has his team defending with far too high a line. It's making it almost easy for barca with space to run into.

    Got it badly wrong.

    Only hope for Arsenal is that Barca do a repeat of the first leg and take the foot off the gas.
