UEFA Champions League Quarter Final 1st leg - Arsenal vs FCB

[Magus]

Pep obviously knows what Arsene is doing so, whatever the line-up will be and hoping for non nonsense substitutions, we are gonna see some arse bashing. After that, Inter and we all know that we're gonna go through them like Pedobear through a kindergarten.
Si Si Si, Nos vamos a Madrid!!!

I believe Pepe saw what happened and next time will choose Bojan instead of Henry.

It's Pep! Pep is the diminutive fro Josep! Not Pepe!!!!

Busquets plays very well, but in some games he has a tendency to give away completely dumbass passes that eventually lead to opposition goals.
Same happened in Arsenal game. I do admit he is a heavy worker and at times shows great technique, but then again he can do alot of stupid mistakes when u least expect him to.

Thing about Busquets is that he can be quite good for large periods of a match then suddenly do some random nonsense that ruins all his hard work..

I have the same feeling about Busquets. He was great for long stretches of the match on Wednesday and then he will try to do something complicated and it will fail. When he plays within himself and makes the smart play, he is a real talent. I've come to like him in the squad for big matches in which we need a more offensive mindset. The return leg is better suited for Toure's ability since we are essentially protecting a lead.

Barça doesn't protect leads. We go out to score from the start. business as usual.

Claro. But we can't throw all caution to the wind with so much at stake. We'll seek to kill the tie off from the start by scoring, but my point is that Toure is the enforcer to cut out their counter attacks. That is basically the only way I see them scoring at the Camp Nou.

hmmm... I really hope Yaya plays at CB with Milito. Marquez is not in good shape, and we need Abidal in LB.

I know how it is! Here in Romania they can't pronounce english names properly. Sometimes I wonder who hires them!!! I face-palm everytime I watch a match on tv.

Is anyone else excited Ibra can't play this game?

[matfcb]

When will Pep give 18 names match squad? I hope that Iniesta, Toure and Jeffren will make the squad.

What makes you excited about it?

[bobo]

I think it's a huge loss Ibra isn't playing. Though it will allow us to be more fluid, but still..

[IndoCulé]

Is Ibra injured during Bilbao game?
