Thing is, I want a FANTASTIC Arsenal performance. I'd happily draw 0-0 and go out on away goals if we play our hearts out.

Make us proud Arsenal.

Is Pinto or Valdes in goal for Barca?

i'm so excited/nervous! worst thing is i can't even watch the match for another 8 hours or so due to school and work. :banghead:

i'm worried that wenger will start an unfit cesc and rvp and we'll see them not play up to par. if that's the case we could be in trouble. hope you know what you're doing wenger! come on Arsenal! will be a historic night. can't wait!

Im not sure why Arshavin isn't starting, maybe hes worried about the defensive side. :?

honestly, i don't mind arshavin coming off the bench. i think rosicky works a bit harder and that's why wenger has gone with him to start. arshavin can give us a spark off the bench especially if we're desperate for a goal. not the worst starting lineup considering our injuries! im just hoping rvp and cesc are really fit!

it could be worse! denilson could be starting :shock:
