    I can say it, because most people know that if you go gung-ho against Barca, then you'll get picked off. Hindsight is great and saying 'well you lost so you should have gone for it' is a non-argument. If we'd gone gung-ho and lost 5-0 then people would be saying we were naive and should have played to try and stop Barca.

    Well they clearly didn't try hard enough <laugh>

    Barca were there for the taking - they didn't even need to get out of 1st gear!

    We can agree to disagree <ok> It was a decent effort from Arsenal. It's frustrating because it was our own mistakes that cost us in the end. Overall we contained Barca pretty well, but they are the best in the world at making you pay for any mistake.

    HIAG, you couldn't be more wrong. I like to think mine is of Barca's stature, whereas you're merely sporting an 'Arsenal'.
