It's very important that we win this game to give ourselves an advantage for the second leg at 'the nou camp'. If we don't concede an away goal i will be very happy.

However I do think they will be too strong up front and too much for our defence to put up with, so i will predict 1-1 for the first leg.

iniesta has been officialy ruled out
i am only worried about messi because ibrahimovic makes bendtner look like an 80 million pound striker. some of his misses are shocking
but xavi is fit
glad that tommy is back
but al...he makes me want to

I dont think iv ever been pessimistic on this website before, but ....i really cant see us grabbing anything from either leg. Barcelona beat UNITED who had RONALDO in the team....with their strike force of ibra messi and henry how in the world are we gonna have any chance with CLICHY + SOL?. (dont get me wrong, they are good but do you have faith in them to keep them strikers quiet?)

I think we're gonna come out all guns blazing, ready to erase yesterdays result only to concede via a corner free kick etc,...and from there on....God knows.

We could not put more than 1 past a birmingham side who just had 3 days to prepare for the game,whereas we had 6.

My prediction 3-1 to them.

We are looking at a 6 or 7 goal defecit over the 2 legs. If you think otherwise ? then I will leave you to deal with that tues next.

It's no wonder people think you're a wind-up merchant sidney!!

6 or 7 goal difference?

Feck me, I know you're a pessimist but that's 'string yourself up' territory!!!

I really hope Henry starts for them. A legend and guaranteed a brilliant reception but I think the occasion might get to him a bit. As for us, please no Denilson!!!

2-0 at home

then 1-1 draw away with cesc to score.

easy days

We will surprise a few people on Wednesday (the doubters). I'm very confident we won't lose, in fact i think it's a certainty we won't lose.

It doesnt really matter that Iniesta is out as they have the quality to replace him but I'm very confident about this one.

COME ON YOU GUNNERS!!!

JUST THINK OF THE WAY THAT UGLY puyol c*** DIVED ROUND THE PLACE IN PARIS OR THAT SMUG BELLETTI - REVENGE!!!
