Go Gunners!

They rock with the likes of Kolo Toure, Phillippe Senderos, Emmanuel Eboue, Francesc Fabregas, Gilberto Silva, Robert Pires, Fredrik Ljungberg, Thierry Henry, José Antonio Reyes and Mathieu Flamini.

1st place: Henry
2nd place: Shevchenko, Eto'o, Ronaldo
3rd place: RVN
4th place: Trezeguet, Rooney

These are my picks.

Arsenal can win it. It's a 50-50 chance before the finalists are decided. And whoever said anything about Barca definitely going through should knock his head on the wall. Milan isn't transparent. They have an equal chance of going through to the final as Barca, because the first leg hasn't been played. Same goes to the Arsenal-Villareal tie.

It's possible. Arsenal have the ability to win it. And I hope it's a Barca-Arsenal showdown.

Because I want an Henry-Ronaldinho showdown.

Then I can say: Put Campbell and Toure in front of Drogba, and he will be so intimidated, he'll have nightmares of them every night.

If Arsenal play Chelsea now, I doubt Chelsea can beat them. The sheer pace of Henry plus the creativity of Fabregas and the trickery of Reyes, see how Terry, Gallas, Carvalho and Paulo Ferreira is going to deal with them.

Oh, and Gilberto Silva is so underrated. He cuts off enemy attacks half-way and passes to the more attacking-minded midfielders, I doubt Lampard or Cole or even Robben could get through.

Please.

Who can receive the ball from midfield and dribble past three defenders, side-stepping two of the three defenders and score?

Who can make a free-kick hook and dip into the top corner of the net?

Thierry Henry.

Actually, you cannot compare Zizou and Ronaldinho. They were masters in their own ways.

Zidane was excellent in dribbling, had great dribbling and passing and possessed great technique and vision.

Ronaldinho is great in dribbling, has good vision, has great technique and has speed.

I have four predictions.

Arsenal 2-1 Man Utd
(Henry 28, 73) (Ruud van Nistelrooy 62)

Arsenal 0-0 Man Utd

Arsenal 1-1 Man Utd
(Henry 34) (Rooney 69)

Arsenal 3-2 Man Utd
(Henry 36, 59, 83) (Ruud van Nistelrooy 21, Saha 68)

One of them will surely come out, but the scorer might not be what I predicted.

And had Henry started as a striker and not as a winger, he would have scored much more than RVN.

Come on, man!

Look at Henry, he's the first player to score at least 20 goals in the Premier League for FIVE consecutive seasons.

Then RVN has only got 3 consecutive seasons for at least 20 goals, no more.

Plus, look at this season's stats:

RVN: 30 games, 21 goals.
Henry: 25 games 21 goals.

Henry is clearly the superior striker. And unlike RVN, contributes numerous assists. Especially 20 in the 02-03 season.

Oh, I forgot to mention that Henry can make what might look like a difficult goal look very easy. RVN only scores goals, but doesn't have the composure and anticipation needed of a striker.
