Bayern Munich v AC Milan
Benfica v Liverpool
PSV v Lyon
Real Madrid v Arsenal

Wednesday, 22 February 2006

Ajax v Inter Milan
Chelsea v Barcelona
Rangers v Villarreal
Werder Bremen v Juventus

So the Arsenal squad:

Jens Lehmann
Manuel Almunia

Philippe Senderos
Emmanuel Eboue
Kolo Toure
Johan Djourou

Abou Diaby
Robert Pires
Freddie Ljungberg
Jose Antonio Reyes
Alexander Hleb
Cesc Fabregas
Mathieu Flamini
Alexandre Song
Gilberto
Sebastian Larsson (will only play in defence)

Theo Walcott
Thierry Henry

So thats a strong squad, only 2 strikers (one who has only played for the AFC reserves twice(including a closed doors friendly))! and 4 fit defenders, one of which hasn't played in Europe. 3 of the Midfielders have yet to start a European game for the club, and quite frankly one of them is worse than his Uncle Rigobert if thats possible! So thats at least 7 of the first team squad out :eek:

Reckon a win is on the cards :D Gotta think positive.
 
We could have a chance if we can keep it to 1-0, or a draw. Cole, RvP, and a few others could be back for the return leg which could be a vast help imo.

RvP would have shown his true class over at Real, such a shame he isn't fit :(
 
Walcott will feature at some point. Wenger has said. I very much doubt he will start. With the team we have it will be a 4-5-1. The law of averages say we will play well with 4-5-1 eventually...

Edit, Just for Vandle here's Craig Moore :p

Flamini certainly likes a 2 footed challenge doesn't he?

And he won 100% of the ball, and made little contact with the RB, who has shown on a few occasions he likes a dive.

Good first half, need to take our chances. Referee has been poor. Played a few advantages well, but has bought several dives, and his position play is poor.
