that tomorrows match hinges on a big controversial "hand ball " type incident - either for or against us ???
When Eduardo did his little party piece against Celtic, we were denied a stonewall penalty at Old Trafford 3 days later and Diaby then ensured we finished up with nowt.
Now with the Henry controvery raging all round, I can't help feel that sods law guarentees that we are heading for something similar. And yes I know Henry plays for Barca now but given the intense desire of half the media to find fault with us at any price, for the sake of their argument, he's as Arsenal as a cannon.
Something will happen on Saturday - mark my words !
Was thinking something similar earlier today. The media have definately got it in for us - mind you, what's changed much where that's concerned?
Maybe not a hand-ball exactly but you can be sure something will happen tomorrow!! Just hope none of our players - yes, I mean YOU Eboue - decides to take a dive or gives the media any reason to have another pop at us!!!
well if wenger dose his job right, eboue wont be diving, cause he wont be on the pitch. should he play (he likely will at some stage) and dive, i hope the fa, uefa, fifa all c it, and ban him for a long time. no one, and i mean no one, deserves to made a scapegoat for diving more than eboue.

Just once, try and make a post without mentioning Eboue, I know its hard but give it a go.
What happened with Henry has absolutely nothing to do with Arsenal! why would a Barcelona player handling the ball mean we are treated unfairly in our next game? what are you on about?
Yes, I've read stacks of articles and watched Sky Sports News endlessly, and at no stage has there even been a hint that the actions are to be attributed to Arsenal. Yes, it's mentioned that he's a former Arsenal player - and AW was quizzed extensively on it - but I haven't got the impression that we're being frowned upon.
