Interestingly, only three Arsenal players in the starting XI played in last year's drubbing at the Camp Nou.


HA!

Szczesny; Eboue, Djourou, Koscielny, Clichy; Song, Wilshere, Walcott, Fabregas, Nasri; Van Persie

VS

Valdes; Daniel Alves, Pique, Abidal, Maxwell; Busquets; Xavi, Iniesta; Pedro, Villa, Messi.

This is where we fight. . .

This is where they die. . .

Gunnerz!? AHU! AHUU!! AHUUU!!!

Can't wait to get my hands on MvC3. . .

What's beef? Beef is when you would rather start an off form Arshavin to an in form Theo Walcott in a game of this magnitude! Beef is when you would rather play a Nasri who may not be at 100percent! Wow Duduspace slowdown son you killing us with the steak barbeque you are cooking!

Theo must have bullied Duduspace in high school

Goals scored in Burnthisleaguearrrgh dont count!

10 goals in just 9 starts this season. . . got to bed

Van Persie either played wide or behind a striker. . . You no get television?

See these mugus. . . RVP's goal ratio since he started playing CF shytes on any player in the EPL.

Starboard needs a hug. . .

over 95% of you stuuupid arses have never been to see the arses play in lives beccause they will never get visa to come from africa or they can't afford to buy the £50 ticket

Muki na here you dey hide since?

^^ 1 point and no goal in 2 games. . . is Bad Moment 2 in cinemas already?

**Sarah Palin accent** How's that Torres signing workin for ya?

Lah lah lah lah, lah lah lah lah, aye aye aye. . . GOODBYE!

You're such low-life odious vermin! Scummies here are good natured folks who give and take harmless needle but you are just a bile choked cantankerous young man. Must you slide to such murk as calling people such puerile names as yu just did to make a point? From low IQ to jobless. Go and ask Sauron that started the IQ carper and u'll see itz pure jest. I'll free yu man. You're just too humourless and uptight. Breathe!

Chinekennameremebere!!!

We've been telling this Starboard/Eastbay fellow not to take everything so "serious" but the boy is hell bent on advancing his career as an internet gangster.

*Cougar*:
damn, ritchie my technique expert is here. did you manage to see berbatov's technique defying trajectory and velocity against blackpool the other night? i still reiterate berbatov has the best first touch in the solar system. how's this for someone's first touch to a ball travelling at 80mph?

https://therepublikofmancunia.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/Berbatov-touch.gif.

van persie is also excellent with his technique but 1000 robins cannot execute this first touch.

This is a case of 6 vs half a dozen. . . on Monday i might say Berbatov but on Tuesday I'd probably say RVP

Let's not forget Ibrahimovic as well.

^^ Dudu has been consuming too much of that good stuff

Thats exactly why I won't start him and look to bring him on later when Barca is flagging. I believe in not showing your hand too quickly. If we can match them or at the least come close in passing and pressing till about the 60th minute, then bring Theo on.
He is still a better impact player than Arshavin IMO.

Heehe, you want Theo to come on when we are 4 goals down abi?

You dont really need and "impact player" unless you are chasing the game(maybe that's what you want)

Whether they are flagging or kiting, Theo would murder whoever Barca play at left back for pace, especially with their high line.

It's a no-brainer, Theo must start.

Last season at the Nou Camp - without Fab4 or Song, we got murdered in midfield so Theo couldn't possibly have a comparable effect.

Even at that he still got an assist and could have had another if Diaby released him(i'm sure A-40 can shed more light on this particular incident)

I will also prefer we start Arshavin and Nasri (if fit) as wide forwards with the option to bring Theo on later. The rest of the team picks itself.

You must be kidding. . . Walcott should be the first name on the team sheet!

Against any other team, maybe(though on current form i still wont start Arshavin), but against Barca, Theo is our most important player.

You want to play Arshavin ahead of Theo to pass Barca to death or what?

If you are wondering what our best chance of beating Barca is, look no further than the second goal against Wolves.

This must be a revolutionary payment model for BT - ‘If Utd win, you get 2 hours of internet till the next game*’

*renewable every game week.

^^ How long will it take Wellington to get a permit? The window of opportunity for Arsenal to sign Hazard is closing fast. . . I fear it might have closed sef if, say Madrid are planning to offer the boy bigger bucks than Arsenal.

Miyaichi is doing well but not Arsenal quality yet.

Anyone with half a brain should know RVP is the best choice for captain this week. . . apparently lalaboiy has less than half a brain

I'm liking this Miyaichi boy, he scored and assisted for Feyenoord today after last week's MOM debut stormer, abeg make Japan cap the boy quick so we can bring him over in the summer, we might not even need Hazard anymore at the rate this boy is developing. For someone who has only played high school football prior to joining us, he has adapted to professional football so quickly.

If na play stop am!!!

Shoe get size

Liverpool's midfield clearly created more than Chelsea's midfield. However considering the way each side lined up(4-1-2-1-2 vs 5-4-1), it doesn't really make sense comparing their offensive input as they were under differing tactical obligations.

Shey na Eldee be Iyana Ipaja Rangers?

Too bad he's up against me when i'm in wild mode

Cech
Bran-Luiz-Terry-Cole
Hazard-Essien-Lampard
Sanchez-Torres-Adam Johnson

Hazard in RCM? You think say na FPL?

Apparently Diaby was given two yellows, one for each push so he'll only miss one game. Can anyone confirm this?

Hehehe, nateevs sef dey drop punshlynez. . . World go soon end!

Stop yarning out ya backside. Lamps, Essien and Anelka were the best players today.

Of course they were the best players but everyone was shyte. . . it's safe to say they were the cream of the crop SHITT!!!

4-0 to 4-4. Even as a Chelsea fan, I find it alarming.

I thunk Bolton were inches away from achieving the same feat at The Bridge against 11-man Chelsea not so long ago.

Latest scores:

Inglorious Basztadsz 91 - 8 Davidylan FC

Chelsea could turn out to be the biggest winners this weekend. . .
