BeloEmre Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 van Persie starting... Arsenal Szczesny; Sagna, Djourou, Koscielny, Clichy; Diaby, Wilshere; Nasri, Fabregas, Rosicky; Van Persie Barcelona: Valdes; Dani Alves, Busquets, Abidal, Adriano; Mascherano; Xavi, Iniesta; Pedro, David Villa, Messi. Barca are potentially shooting themselves in the foot playing Biscuits in defence. He's no worse than Milito. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd swap him and the Argie wanker if he was set on not playing Milito. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 If everything goes to plan, Arsenal will mostly be nowhere near the defence. All giggly with excitement now!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gash Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 If Rosicky does well against Alves we have every chance of taking this game, he was a problem last leg. That's ignoring the obvious threats, i am full of confidence (not a good sign) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's ignoring the obvious threats, i am full of confidence (not a good sign) Shame Rosicky hasn't had a good game in about 3 years. If I was Arsenal fan I'd be annoyed he is anywhere near this game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnypd Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Barca should win, yes the defensive 5 aren't the best, and there's players out of position, but individually they're all good players. better than arsenal's back 5, for instance. mascherano's not a patch on busquets but i'm sure most would have him ahead of diaby, though the latter very occasionally plays a blinder. for me barcelona really struggled with the power/pace of bendtner and arshavin in the last leg, so im surprised neither have started. i suppose the plan is to still be in the game with half an hour left and to bring those two against tired legs, as in the first leg.

Guest ObiChrisKenobi Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Bendtner will score the winning goal, and his celebration will be so immense, that his ego will implode due to the mass it beholds. Thus, the beginning of the end will begin. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cronky Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Incredibly difficult for Arsenal to get at the Barca back four. In fact, they're struggling to get the ball out of their half. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
