For me Barcelona are still prone at the back Puyol is class but the others, well not sure about to be honest, think Milan however could be in the final.

I'm just so chuffed to see Arsenal go through, Hleb's best game so far I think. Eboue also class tonight

The only thing that still concerns me as a gooner is that we still aren't shooting enough, it's all the tip tap play around the box but no end product, this has and must change. We've never had a problem getting the ball in the danger zone but there is always one too many passed imo.....

That was the view from the East Stand as well mate, we had plenty of chances to take a shot, but still seem content to walk the ball into the net, very, very frustrating.

No mention of Messi, or Dinho they are great players also Barcelona for me their defense has improved their a much stronger team this year. I watch Spanish football week in week out so i know how strong Barcelona can be. :)

Your right their though about Eboue great game for him i just dont understand why Arsenal have done crud in the premiership but great against Madrid. :/

Three words: Robin van Persie. ;)

I thought he complemented the team perfectly when he paired with Thierry earlier in the season, because he's not afraid to just whack it at goal every now and then, which is definitely something we lack on occasions. Hleb is the worst at it for me too. He makes excellent darting runs through players, get into an excellent space with maybe a half-chance of a shot and..... rolls it back to someone behind him. :/

Arsenal struggle against teams like Bolton , Blackburn and Everton because they don't like it up em! These teams knock them out of their stride and don't give them any time to play their football.

Arsenal are at their best when they come up against likeminded teams that choose to play good football against them. ie Madrid.

I think you are correct though in what you said.

Are we allowed to post video of goals as i found Fred goal from tonight on another forum 59 second clip would like to post but dont think we are allowed on here. ?

Edit: I have seen videos posted on here of goal compilations etc so not sure

Dunno.
We've seen Barca vs Milan last season. 2 good games. But i'd like to play someone we havnt before. Like Lyon. Or Arsenal.
Either way though, i'd be fairly confident against whoever we play. :)

I want Barca to play Juve. :p

Fantastic results all round, what more can you ask for!
Main one being Liverpool being knocked out, take that you Sky bigots! How could you possibly say this was going to be an easy game for Liverpool (or lines to those effect), all those pundits look red faced now.
What a couple of cracking goals from Simoa and Miccolli, Miccolli had been out of favour in Italy, was the fresh face of Italian football at one stage, hope he can come back like a storm he once was.

Now that was a display Milan can be proud of! That is how you play from now on! :D Sublime goal from Kaka.

Hopefully after next Tuesday there will be 3 Italians into the Quarters, take that Italian critics ;) :p

Lyon are going to be tough to beat...

Great night, great atmosphere, great result. Hleb, Eboue, Mad Jens, and Kolo were great.

Wasn't impressed with the referee, but I don't care.

Was with you guys all the way, well done. Hleb was fantastic.
 
Thoroughly enjoyed the game as a neutral. Arsenal deserved the win over two legs, was some exciting football played.

Last few minutes was kinda hoping Real would score though, only so I could maybe get another 30mins of action packed footy :D
 
Great match tonight. We really should have made it safe in the first leg and again tonight rather than leave it so close but we were by far the better team in both legs.

Thought Flamini and Eboue were excellent, Real didn't get behind them all game. Hleb had a good game but I'm starting to wonder if he has the power to kick the ball in the air or further than 10 yards ;) Shame it wasn't him instead of Pires when the keeper went up, would have been interesting. He probably would have stopped and passed the ball backwards though :D

As I've just see the Lehman save from Raul I'd better give him a mention. I wasn't sure at the time if he had got a touch but it was brilliant. I hope his detractors are realising that take away his antics with the opposition and he is a very good keeper, albeit a bit mental :p
