As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.
Be good to keep away from the other english sides because they are all very strong defensively compared to us and the rest of the teams left in the comp and we are more likely to play barca off the park than liverpool for example because Rafa will set the scousers up to stop us from playing whereas barca are more likely to go for it which will suit our style more

C d G - The draw will be fixed so the English teams will be drawn against each other..... A forgone conclusion....
Someone said that Villareal,Porto and Munich (the german ones) would be bad draws. Completely agree, we'd be too complacent. 2006, we beat Madrid and Juve famously, then nearly cocked up to lowly Villareal. We've always done better in Europe against the bigger teams (Parma were a massive side, beat them, but lost to lowly Zaragosa and Gala).
Bring on Barca, they're by far the best draw Arsenal could hope for.
I've got this vile feeling we are going to draw the Mancs.
Really want Mancs v Scoucers and Chavs v Barca on one half of the draw. Us v Villa Real and Bayern v Porto in the other half. Now that really would have me celeberating
