English League & European Football [2nd Apr - 8th Apr 2010] **spoilers**

idd he chases down everyone like the rest of the team works his ass off constantly like everyone else.

He could have probably squared it on his fourth but why not go for goal?
 
And that's the thing, I've always said that Wenger was trying to emulate Barca without having anywhere near their budget. Our squad was too thin at the beginning of the season and then of course all the injuries.

Our squad is always thin. And we lose every season in the important sections because of it.

I dont care what anyone says about Arsenal I knew we would not go through but they have given me 180minutes of great and entertaining football.

Well done Arsenal!

At least we have....erm next year? :D
 
Arsenal don't seem to have made much of an attempt to minimize Xavi's time on the ball, just someone sitting tight on him all game would have made it a bit more of a challenge.

LOL ermmm its kinda hard when Barca can rip teams apart with their deft and precise passing....they have dominated us pure and simple...they dont let us relax with the ball...all ive seen is Arsenal rush passes and thats due to their quality midfield....Arsene did say earlier today that the battle will be the midfield and Barca have definitely won that battle today.

Putting pressure on Xavi wouldnt have made a difference...he would have just passed it to someone else who would have ripped us to pieces.
 
Arsenal are an embarrassment. Bloody disgrace!! I know Barca are a quality team but Arsenal should never get hammered like that especially by the one player. What a joke.
 
Barca did play well but didn't create much, luckily for them the chances they did get fell to the weird little freak which is Messi. On tonight's form I think he'd have scored against any team in the world, especially one which includes Silvestre, marking him.

Well at least we can concentrate on the EPL now..although thats looking a bit slim at the moment with our injuries lol.

But yeh at least we have next yr...can only hope Wenger buys some quality players this summer because i think we really do need it...and FFS get rid of that french malteaser lookalike Silvestre...you know when he starts things are not looking good:p.

Obviously it's going to be difficult but take Messi and Xavi out of that lineup and it's average at best. Arsenal just seemed to start like they weren't even going to try to stop their main threats.
 
I know Messi gets a lot of love, but am I the only who thinks Guardiola is massively, massively underrated?

He's not under rated, most people think he's one of the best in the world, which I think is over rating him, purely on the grounds that he's been given one of the best teams in history to play with, makes things a bit easier
