Was that that Campaign, seems like longer ago. I cried when Barca beat us in 06. 10 men, 1-nil up with 15 minutes to go.
Yep: http://www.uefa.com/uefachampionsle...5279/match=302809/postmatch/report/index.html Barca has 65% possession and 18 shots on goal. Chelsea had 3 shots on goal and conceded 20 fouls. At least when we parked the bus at Barca we won (and Ronaldo missed ) a penalty...
They had over 700 completed passes compared to our just under 400, apparently in the premier league about 300 is the adverage pass for the whole game
oh they had done 400 passes by 60mins into the game more than a premier league average passing for the game.
Yet we had more shots on goal and on target, more corners. So they can pass it about the middle of the park all they want. We took our chances.
How Ironic coming from an Arsenal fan. Every time you lot out pass someone but get beaten you blame the referee while talking about how superior you were.
Barca were not bombarding us with attacks though like last season. They spent the majority of the game passing the ball about the midfield area and had a few attacks. We just made ours count by scoring more.
True, Barcelona didn't create as much as last season but they did miss chances that normally they would bury with ease. I'd be surprised if they are so wasteful come the return leg.
I cant predict the future so we'll have to wait and see. Barca will score at the Camp, just a matter of if we will as well. When you beat Barca a few seasons back you were outclassed, but at the end of the day, the only thing that mattered was that you won.
I agree that's what counts it's just that when you put that to a lot of Arsenal fans they dismiss it.
were only half way there. Need to bring another a* game. First leg last time we shone in second half and again this time. Next game it needs to be both halfs. Play short balls and over the def as they do and exploit us
You said Arsenal would lose last night, they didn't. Now you're trying to make out you meant over two legs, which you clearly didn't. No one is fooled by you, you are the fool. With every post you make you look like even more of an idiot. 99% of Arsenal fans agree that Barca are still the favorites to win over 2 legs, you are the only moron on this forum that has the opinion that Arsenal fans think they have got this tie in the bag. YES THAT'S RIGHT, THERE IS A SECOND LEG TO PLAY YET, WOW NO ONE ELSE KNEW THAT.... do you feel smart? There is nothing wrong with Arsenal fans being over the moon with beating Barca last night, yes that's right THEY BEAT BARCA LAST NIGHT 2-1, I know that little fact makes you feel sick. You can't read either, as proved by the fact that you think I'm an Arsenal fan. You clearly don't get the concept of cheering on other English teams in the CL. Wenger's tactical nous led to his team defeating the best team in the world last night. Why should he change his tactics? He is building up another great team that could still win the league this year, you're only 4 points ahead of Arsenal, you're risking even more egg on your omelette skin face. Wenger does an amazing job when you consider he is not allowed to spend stupid amounts of money on players like Man United have in the past.
Berbnanidez i know you are still soothing over Arsenal winning, So i wont kick a wounded animal while hes down.
You're joking right? You must be, if you're not I'd be worried for you! "You were always going to lose when you have a manager who has no knowledge of tactics and just tells his side to attack. It results in you getting ripped apart whenever you meet decent opposition" Now carry on with your 2 leg BS, it's amusing!
Yes because one match changes that. Lets forget all the times they have been ripped apart because they won the 1st leg of a tie they will probably lose.
