    Milner has been outstanding this season. He's played better than, Pogba.

    Barca have served it up on a plate for Spurs. I think Spurs will beat them.

    I can't see Liverpool beating Napoli, tonight. Gut feeling is 2 - 2. If Liverpool go out the Champions league tonight, I'll probably lob money on them winning the league, they're still 5/2.

    I really hope Rose and Winks have good games. Poch has a tendency to make some ****ing weird selections in big games and these are two of them. Dier and Davies should be in there. Rose been dreadful when he’s played since his long term injury last year and Winks only knows how to pass the ball backwards.

  4. Arsenal's biggest nightmare is that 'Pool bottle it tonight and wind up in the Europey League.

    I have placed the cock clinic on high alert, just in case.

  5. Poch may be wanting to deter Barça from pressing us, for fear of our pace.

  6. It's going to be a tough match for us against Barça.

    They're so confident about trouncing us that they've left Messi out.

    Rose is an experienced player and very mobile. Guess Poch fears the pace of Barca a bit. Winks isn’t Eric Dier. Both selections make sense to me.

    Barca at home are a tough ask for any team. We just have to go for it, but that’ll obviously leave us open at the back.

    Rose was mobile two years ago and has never been better at actual defending than Davies. His main attribute was his pace and he don’t even have that any more.

    Dier’s twice the player Winks is. Thrice in fact.

    Disagree with this, mate. You can keep it tight for at least an hour, you only need to nick it. I can't see it being wave of attacks, by Spurs.

    With that team Barcelona have put out, you must be confident?

    Their starting eleven evens things up a bit, but if we get ahead I’d expect to see the big guns coming on.

    Not many come away from the Nou Camp with a win.

    That record has to end sometime. That's the way I look at them, they're due a defeat and the last time they were beat at home in the group stages, was against an English side <ok>

    Wow that barca line up. If the spuds dont beat them that hold true to them spursy selves. They say a team is as good as its weak link and i havent heard of half of them and the other half hardly leaves anything to be desired.
