You said 'best', which I had to call you on, since you included Arsenal.

Xavi was magnificant in the middle of the park.

It looked like Barca came there to show the world that they are the real show stoppers of world football. They took Arsenal apart. I dont think Arsenal has ever played against a team like Barca. Even the old Barca wasnt this strong.

What a come back by the Gunners.

1st half and a bit of the 2nd Barca dominated... rest was all Arsenal.

Was Messi even playing?

:D
He had one shot & then went to ground:)
The open game cleary suited Barca more than Arsenal with our leaky defence. Clichy looked a bit star struck against the Barca players in the 1st half.

What a game. Barca are an incredible team, WP to gunners for coming back. All our players were tossers except Walcott :p. Hopefully we can go the distance and the Nou camp.

That's an insult to Nasri who had an incredible first half...

Disagree,
Almunia was fantastic, with exception Ibra's first goal,

Nasri was brilliant, he was the only one making things happen in attack for the first 70 mins, and he was doing a great job getting back to defend - great contender for man of the match from an arsenal perspective, definately our best attacking player on the day, this kid has so much quality about him

Song was also great

But Walcott turned things nicely :D

Messi was playing and did his job well. Played in a different role to help Xavi out in midfield for the lack of Iniesta. What do you expect? Should Messi run through 5 players for him to be noticed?

The second leg awaits you.

Yes. From your fanboy comments here, I did expect that. When I hear "greatest ever" and "legend" and and and... should i not expect anything less?

Ahem. Lets look back a few days...

Maybe when Messi makes a fool out of your entire Arsenal's back 4, you will start to realise Messi isnt just a ''good'' footballer as you put it but a GREAT one!

He couldn't even make a fool out of the back 3 and a make shift defender (Song) playing in the back. I'm shaking.

I had just said he's average just has pace and he goes and scores :eek:

:D

Well done Arsenal. Barca committed the same mistake as Manure the night before. Thought they had won, sat back and stopped playing

Guys, hands up who is glad Puyol isn't playing next week so we don't have to see at that ugly mug of his?

*hand up*
