I feel that he has done enough to start vs barca. With Campbell, ozil and sanchez behind.

Early pressure and pace coupled with an early goal and game on.

I hope so, looks like the only one who can score for us at the moment.
 
Welbeck up front,

Sanchez-Ozil-Campbell behind, and Elneny Coq behind those 3. Team pretty much picks itself, not like there's a billion options.
 
I don't want us to try and contain, if we're going out, we might as well go out in style. I want to see an entertaining match full of speed, attack and flair.


Which we haven't done for how many months now? Long gone are those days, we are just average now in our play.

The players don't seem to be playing with real fluidity at times, maybe it's the pressure getting to them. But against Barca there are no real expectations and I hope they go out there and play without fear. I want to at least be treated to an entertaining game, this is after all what it's all about.

Totally agree. We might as well go for it, even if we end up losing the game 3-0 . There's no point going to Barca and trying to sit back when you're already 2-0 down. If we can nick an early goal, then it's game on.
 
I reckon it could be a 4/5/6 to 2/1 goal fest if Arsenal were to open up but I think Barca will be at it from the start and Arsenal will probably get pushed further and further back and it will end up the 2/3-0/1 most expect.

With the season falling apart, Wenger may go conservative to avoid a humping and the psychological damage that might do.

Yep, as much as I'd like to see us go for it, I think Wenger will set up to contain them for the first 25 mins and then try and nick a goal, because if we score first then it's game on.

If we do go all out and concede first, then it's basically game over.

Your screwed either way.

A. No way are you good enough to stop Barca scoring at home.

B. And if you got out all guns blazing, you could concede a hat full.

It's basically a choice of:

A. Go out in routine fashion. Some fans will bleat but most and the media knew it as soon as the draw was made.

B. Go out in a blaze of glory with some people saying "what a great game and Arse contributed etc" whilst others moan youv'e shipped a shedload.

Its a "rock and hard place" situation.

All day every day. Rather watch an entertaining game, than a close and inevitable death.
