FUCK ADEBAYORRRRRR

what a game!

almost lost it in the end for us too, the little russian

9 times out of 10, RvPs goal would get saved too. Spurned so many great and EASIER chances, but got one of the best goals of the month.

Just about screamed my head off in the pub

RVP Maicon'd it.

Lol Milan lost

[phelan]

Wilshere looked so good Barca are going to claim he has Barcelona DNA.

Hopefully Bayern beat Inter to close out a losing round for the Itais

I watch A LOT of Barcelona matches-- probably 90%-- & have seen them lose or draw a few games, but I've never seen them lose to a team who was positive. It's always been the teams who 'park the bus.'

In the first leg of the semifinal last year, Internazionale sat back, absorbed pressure, & then hit on the break. Arsenal scored a break goal, but consistently tried to play in Barca's half of the field.

The passing stats are flat out ridiculous though. Barca doubled us up easily in the 1st half alone, it was like watching a metronome out there.

Agreed though that nobody in La Liga, even Real Madrid (who are now coached by Jose Parkthebusho), want to take it to Barca. It seems like when the Blaugrana roll into town, it's a matter of damage limitation, which I don't really like to see.

Credit where its due, Barca absolutely shat on Arsenal in terms of possession. We got lucky on RvP's goal, too, but if this doesn't instill confidence in the Gunners, I don't know what will. They should feel like the Premier League is there for the taking right now.

BTW - Szczesny is a nutjob.

Arsenal is still in trouble by allowing that goal IMO. Will be tough to pull it off at Barca.

Watching again.
