Champions League Midweek Games 2

[JackBuddy]

well this game hasn't been a let down!

barca with their two CBs out in the second leg, also iniesta is probably out too, no fabregas for arsenal, going to be an amazing second leg

I'm sure gooners will also wish that Abidal is still injured so they have to play Maxwell.

Good game of football. Is it me or did Diaby have a poor game?

Credit to Nasri, getting at Barcelona from the start when his team look life-less (and dare I say it, star struck?)

i wrote arsenal off, like many people do, not just in the CL but in the PL. They have the will-power to improve and counter on opportunities. Barca will miss their two key centre backs next week with Pique and Puyol both suspended. Arsenal need to play Walcott a lot more because for me he changed that game. Quite frankly I thought he might've come on in the 23rd minute when Arshavin came off injured, we might well have seen a different result. Good result in the end. All to play for. Barca have a huge advantage though!

You all say that but if Walcott came on earlier then Maxwell wouldn't have been tired. Walcott was as effective as he was because the full back was shattered and Walcott could run rings around him. Gallas, Fabregas and Arshavin all out.

Almunia
Sagna - Campbell/Song - Vermaelen - Clichy
Nasri - Song/Denilson - Diaby
Eboue/Walcott - Bendtner - Rosicky

Still have a decent side but obviously we're missing our two most effective players but who knows.

With both there cb's out you still have a very good chance in my opinion, and if wallcot plays like he did today id bet money on him scoring.

The people at Spurs kept moaning when the press kept saying that Modric broke his leg and they were quick to correct them.

Anyway, if this is true he's gonna be out for about 3 months so that's his season over. The question is... has he played his last game in an Arsenal shirt?!?

[Titch]

bbc saying its a broken leg to and most of papers, is a real shame tbh!

[Arron]

he knew the risks he was taking into the match and he decided to kick that ball ever so hard.

he broke it before kicking ball

[Arron]

he inflicted more pain though by kicking the ball. as you could see he was running pretty fine then straight after the penalty he was limping bad.
