    You might think GD is 'streets ahead', to everybody else though, it's just GD.

    Messi has never scored against Shrewsbury Town. He has 8 (yes eight) against Arsenal. That puts things into perspective.

    Even Lingard has scored against Shrewsbury Town FFS.

    Messi's record generally against English lower league teams is piss poor. He's no Jamie Cureton is he?

    Exactly. He hasn't even scored against Bournemouth FFS.

    Ronaldo has.

    And you're a very distant history with no recent history to speak of. 24 years since you won the league? It'll be another 24 until your next one, although I wouldn't hold my breath if I was you.

    Well whatever, if you want to pat yourselves on the back for *only* losing 2-0 at Home.. fair play to you.

    We beat you 2-0 on the opening day of the season. West Ham are now as good as Barca. Fact.

    There's a few Gooners with the right attitude, perhaps it's the team I support but I'd be looking so smash them up in Spain and go through.

    The only smashing that will get done at The Nou Camp will be Arsenal's back door!
    Whinger will feel like Graham Norton after a long lost weekend in Soho!..

    Oh yeah the reality is something terrible but you have to cling on to your dreams and hope they come true.

    I'm all romantic this morning, you can do it Gooners.............and if not we'll all have a good laugh so win, win.

    That's why you live with the cloud of disappointment hanging over you.

    Next year Luv.
