What's the difference between Arsenal and Hitler?
- Hitler did win in Europe one summer.

That red card was too harsh and stupid, Barca doesn't need such help...congrats to them anyway as for tonight Forza Milan but a miracle is needed

Can't believe the Arsenal vs Barcelona game was allowed to stand. As the Gunners started to make some sort of impression on the game, Van Persie is sent off for a stupid reason and the ref decided the fate of the game with that pathetic decision. Ref's should be held accountable for poor decisions, just as players are.

There you go Barca, a game on a platter. You were bloody good, I'll give you that, but it was 12 vs 10 in the end

So Tottenham go into the Q/F after a 0-0 draw with Milan.

It is hard to see who can beat Barcelona this year in the Champions League. The only team that can pass the ball like they do is Arsenal

they play extremely pretty footie, but so long as they only score 10% of the fantastic chances they create, there can be an upset. Heck even Arse came close and they hardly even got a sniff of the ball.

The thing about Arsenal is that they can score on the counter attack better than most teams. Their second goal in the first leg was very impressive. Four passes from box to box, GOAL!

Man Utd beat Arsenal 2-0 in the F.A. Cup Q/F. Man U started with 7 defenders

[Rollo]

Man Utd's midfield would have been maybe their third or fourth choice? Anyway, Sir Alex probably did his homework and watched how Barca did it; then copied.

The problem was that Arsenal went to the Nou Camp wanting a draw, they set up too defensive and got punished for it.

I was actually in Barcelona this last week and went to see Barca last Saturday for their game against Zaragoza. Even though the game wasn't actually that exciting it was great to see such a good team at work. The passing is so accurate and so cutting, it's almost like watching a different sport being played, and the foot speed of Messi he seems to touch the ball when you don't even think it's possible to get to.
