Looking forward to seeing Barca and AC play though on Wed night.

This should be fun! :)

I don't think it's going to be as bad as people think, we have a very good record at home in Europe. It's the leg at the Allianz that we have to be worried about, fully expect us to look silly over there.

Meh didnt even notice until a few mins ago, silly auto correct on my tablet :/

Yes it will be quite a debacle to watch, but nothing like the debacle of the CL holders being dumped out at the group stages:p.

We have it in our trophy cabinet unlike some who will just keep on dreaming of having any piece of silver. :p
 
Hoping we can go through. They were poor but they seemed to be playing for a draw. Should be interesting none the less!

I hope Wenger has bought a lot of lube because the team are going to need it tomorrow.

Saying that I am very worried would be an understatement

LOL tbh im not that worried, i know we will get shafted pretty hard unless by some major miracle we end up getting a result but the 2nd leg will be a massacre regardless:p.

At least us being out of the CL means we can concentrate on getting 4th this yr as our trophy:p

Never heard of that title before but I guess that have nots even dream of that. :p:D

Of course you havent :p, that title never existed until you lot got dumped out;):p

Anyhow back to the issue at hand, ill be praying for a miracle come tommorrow night...a miracle that we dont get too badly shafted scoreline wise. I just hope Bayern take it easy on us and dont make us look too bad:p
 
I think this is once again that, I hope we get utterly humiliated, some of the players need it. Walcott has since his 100k contract, been in the press again calling on the lesser players to step up and perform... he has for 5 years had the attitude of "I don't need to improve, I never get dropped, I'm the best, and I don't even need to try", that is the culture that is killing Arsenal.

Anyway, some of the players need it, and my god the board and manager need it. I can't see Wenger being fired, or being shamed into leaving without some utterly humiliating defeat. At least against Utd he had this "i've just sold all my best players" excuse, and a serious injury crisis(his own doing of course but he ignores that). We lose by 4+ goals at home and I think he won't be manager next season... maybe not the day afterwards.

Even by getting humiliated, nothing will change. Nothing has changed the past 5 seasons and during each of those seasons there have many times where we've been humiliated. Even if we get thumped tomorrow and lose 10-0 away to Spurs with Wenger assaulting the ref, Wenger will still not be sacked. Wenger will only leave on his own accord and he's too stubborn to walk out. You'll just have to wait :p
 
In not looking forward to this at all, if Ribery is playing I don't fancy him running at Sagna/Jenkinson repeatedly. Not sure our defence will be able to cope with the likes of Mandzukic either but I guess we'll just have to wait and see, anything can happen.
 
I don't think we'll beat Spurs record for heaviest defeat over 2 legs suffered by an English side, but we have about as much chance of beating Bayern as we do winning the league.

I dont think Arsenal will get hammered like some people are making it out to be, i think they will draw at the Emirates and it's all up in the air in Munich.

Probably what will happen is that we manage to draw with Bayern tomo night but in 2nd leg at Bayern, we will be smashed into orbit.

Similar to when we beat Barca in the first leg a few yrs back when Fabregas was playing for us, only for us to go to Barca and get our backsides well and truly hammered:p.
