can't we get denilson to do this, then petition for him to be banned for life?

sounds good to me, maybe get him and squilaci to do a leg each?

Just seen this on twitter...

Hercules coach Esteban Vigo has made a five-point guide to winning against Barcelona.

1. PRESSURE THEM BUT DON'T LOSE SHAPE - "We played two banks of four and tried to leave little space between the two lines."

2. DON'T CHANGE YOUR STYLE - "We were positive and we created three chances in the first 15 minutes, scoring a goal from one of them."

3. DON'T MAN-MARK MESSI - "There's no point. Man-mark him and you have to man-mark Xavi, Villa, Iniesta and Pedro... and then Alves scores."

4. MAKE THE PITCH SMALLER - "We tried to force them inside at every opportunity. The bigger they make the pitch, the more you suffer"

5. AND MAKE SURE YOU SCORE! - "You have to because you know they will, as they've already scored 36 goals in 10 La Liga away games."

Anyone know Arsene's email address so we can forward it on?!

I really fear for wednesday. Just seen that Barcelona to win by more than 2 goals is 9/2. Think i'll stick a fiver on it.

At least it'll pay for my post match depression beers.

Im so up for this.

If we play the team on saturday or even better if nasri's back then we've got a real chance. Maxwell will hopefully play left back, he was scared shitless by theo. Puyol is more important than a lot of people realise it seems too.

Sagna suspended so eboue has to come in so other 10 players same un less nasri back i reckon he could b eon bench.

I'm just looking forward to booing that snivelling little hijo de puta Xavi and the rest of his Barca DNA.

rigsby · Post by **rigsby** » Mon Feb 14, 2011 10:28 am

We'll win the 2 nil.

We're the best team they will face this year, the boys will be up for it, we'll have the Big guns out.

I'm looking to get highly intoxicated for 2 reasons;

1.) Its my Birthday on Saturday and am not going to the game on Sunday.

and

2.) I do not want to be sober or fully aware of the rape that I will witness at 7.45pm.

1-4 or1-5 to Barca. The Wenger philsophy exposed as flawed before a huge audience.
It won't however be his or any of his sub standard players fault.

Yes it'll be Wenger's philosophy if we get beaten.

Really not sure why you think it'll be that big a score, they don't beat every spanish team like that. They're not unbeatable mate.
