Not really Ross, Arsenal would have attacked more knowing that they could have scored 6/7 goals.

None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

You do know they played with a left back & midfielder in the centre of defense & Arsenal only made two touches in the barca goal area all night.

Don't forget that Barca scored 3 times and still couldn't get far clear of Arsenal, a team who didn't have a shot on target all game. A miracle of sorts.

'Made two touches in the Barca goal area all night'? That sounds like some fella called Chuck Spangelbeur on ESPNFOXTV in the States :D

Woweee, two touches in the Barca goal area all night, while the Gunner Squad could only watch as the Messimeister had two scoring marks of his own into the Arsenal Goal Net, you gatta love this soccerball.

Did anyone notice when Messi scored the opening goal with a brilliant finish the 2 English commentators on sky I think went off on a rant about Fabregas giving the ball away and never mentioned the brillilant skill of messi. I thought it was a bit ridiculous to be fair. Maybe they don't like Fabregas.

The Irish TV3 commentary pair were a jingoistic farce. On that Messi goal, (the dink, lob and volley) Lawro needed 3 looks at it before he conceded that Messi was not lucky.
For the Arsenal goal, despite the ball dropping between 3 Barca defenders, they thought an Arsenal player had got a clear header on the ball.
If a Barca player went down, he wasn't touched.

Does anyone feel AC Milan can turn it around & win at WHL tonight? some very tasty odds on them doing so.

*happy now RLL?
