Barcelona vs Arsenal thread
Think I'd have preferred Ibrahimovic up against TV and Sol, just think a forward line of Bojan,Pedro and Messi means so much f'ing movement around our back line and as OK as Sol has been, he's never been that mobile.gusher311 wrote:If Zlatan is out we have a real shot at this. If we show up i think we can beat them 2-1
Just hope that his old defensive brain is in full gear. A good early defensive smack into one of their forwards will do his nerves a world of good.
Also hope the ref doesn't keep falling for Barca players rolling around looking for free kicks.
I think we'll get a draw but sadly it will be a low scoring one so not enoguh.
Come on lads prove me wrong, give the best defensive display of your lives and nick it in the 92nd minute with a diving Sol header from a set piece.1-2

United were lacking Ferdinand and Vidic, they played johnny evans and WES BROWN at cb and still came away with a 3-1 victory at the emirates. I would like to think they are weaker without puyol and pique at the back but i just cant believe this, also i read somewhere they played the champions league final without puyol...
If we are to win, we need nasri diaby and walcott to perform. I cant see the barca defence giving bendtner any room to do anything whatsoever, and without arshavin and cesc ( our main men, frankly) i foresee us giving it a fight, but not coming out with the desired result.
I will nevertheless hope and wish for a miracle. Beating the best side in europe without our best defender, midfielder and striker ... boy that would be something.
