Fabregas and RVP shouldn't have started - that was a gamble from wenger and it backfired, at least for Fabregas who was absolutely awful and looked fucked from the first minute. RVP was always going to struggle against 4 defenders and the ref was off his head for the red. Wilshere was excellent again, and Nasri never gave up - arsenal need more players of not only that standard but that mentality. And Almunia kept them in it for most the game. I think arsenal are better than they were a year ago, but barca were also less clinical than usual, and actually quite sloppy by their standards. what VI said about their fitness regime seems to make sense based on these 2 showings.

 

If Wenger wants to challenge for this trophy he needs to buy a few players. as usual.

Barca did to Arsenal what Arsenal do to "99%" of Premier League teams according to Jamie Redknapp. 

 

Literally 99% of Prem teams? :D

Oh triffic...trffic yeah...99.99% of teams get that literally.

If Souness was half as good a manager as he is a pundit he'd have been a great here.

 

His ego gets in the way unfortunately.

 

You think? I think he's brilliant in the studio.

 

as a manager. Decent pundit.

At a guess, Xavi and Iniesta had comfortably more passes that game than Arsenal did?

Easily.

Some comments on Arsenal..

 

Wilshere is a horrible little cunt.

 

Feel sorry for Koscielny, always seems to play well but then makes 1 mistake that always seem to prove costly.

 

What is the point of Tomas Rosicky?

 

Bendtner.  :mackems:

Souness is a great pundit. It's a shame ape man has gone, Souness used to put him in his place when he started his arse-licking hero worship bullshit.

Arsene fighting with the ref in the tunnel apparently :lol:

 

Disgraceful if true.

 

Arsene was bound to have a breakdown eventually. He's had to hold his petulant tongue a lot lately.

 

Two soft penalties against us, sunderland game, now this...

Him & Gullit are the best studio combo about when they do Sky's coverage. Compare that with ITV's Southgate/Townsend, and BBC's Hanson/Lawro/Shearer and Sky piss on the competition.

Arsenal are infuriating. It's a Wenger cliche that they have mental strength... they really don't.

 

Taking no credit away from Barcelona's pressing only Wilshere, Diaby and Nasri had any confidence on the ball - the rest of them just looked petrified. Absolutely petrified. Really let themselves down.

RvP obviously knew it was an offside.  Why would he hit a half hearted shot with his right when he could've put it on his left?  :undecided:

 

Rules are rules, if they aren't going to be enforced they shouldn't be there.

 

Wonder if Wenger will pick up on the Messi 'pen' in his post-match interview as well...
