So Barca will be without Ibra, Pique, Puyol and possibly Iniesta? Could Arsenal be more fortunate?

Yeah, Fabregas could rise again on Monday morning.

Milito, Toure, Henry and Bojan aren't bad replacements though
Henry - 3 goals Bojan - 8, one goal in Europe between them. They may not be bad replacements but I wouldn't say they were great either
Very unlikely. El classico next weekend so I doubt they will risk Iniesta- maybe a spot on the bench. Even without him Barca are well capable of putting 4 or 5 past Arsenal but are also likely to concede 3-4 well doing it!

Bad, or infact, better, Ibra just doesn't seem to "click" with Barca. Without him they are trouncing a fairly decent side.
Iniesta might be back, for me Marquez is better than Pique, and Puyol maybe, less good on his best day but Puyol is so prone to mistakes on a not good day.
Keita, Busquets, Pedro, I don't think that was anywhere near their strongest team as it was. Henry, Bojan/Ibra, Messi as the front three, Toure, Xavi and Iniesta, and the back 4 don't really matter after that
Arsenal will be missing Gallas, Arshavin, Fabregas, and maybe Clichy also. I'd take Barca's current squad situation over ours

I'd say it's rather bad luck considering our injuries at the moment, and considering should a miracle happen and we beat Barca, we'd more likely have Inter next.
No great loss there. I've always thought he was rather overrated and that Mourinho got the better end of the deal when he swapped him for Eto'o.

Some day, my comedy genius will be recognised.
I was going to ask how long Cesc had been having problems with the ladies
Sol Campbell vs Messi says yes

Sorry, nothing but infidel's on this board!

Really glad you're back in the Premiership. Had enough of teams coming up and taking points off Liverpool
