    Looking at recent years, we lost twice to Barcelona and the way they played we would have lost with 20 men behind the ball, PSV we got beat from a set piece by an average team, Milan and Utd we were clueless and had no tactics, Liverpool cheated with a Babel dive. Cant remember the other ones.

    Im not sure we've ever had the defensive players to ever do what Chelsea did

    The have. A final. One they probably should have won as well.

    A lot is made of their European record. Any side can win it, it takes a mixture of things. As it is Arsenal haven't quite found that mixture but all too often they have performed well in Europe.

    Some of the best English performances in Europe have come from Arsenal.

    We might have won it that year if we'd seen 90 mins of 11v11..

    We'll never know

    I will demand Wenger's head if the club waste their time making offers for Suarez again <devil>

    We've got more chance of signing Bergkamp

    Wilshere is an Arsenal man, he's not a **** like RVP to leave us for you.

    Not for Wilshere we don't, go get or create your own talent instead of stealing ours like RVP, now you want Wilshere too and pretend how great you are, when Arsenal made these players.

    The only positive for me 2day is that TV did well, overall our defenders did their jobs, we didn't really look shaky or leaky at the back, Rooney had one good chance in the second half, but other than that our defenders dealt with United's attacks. Now only if our attacking players did their jobs today. Giroud, Ramsey, Ozil, and Cazorla all went missing today.

    Dont want him. Just a suggestion.

    You need a striker, we need a midfielder. we have plenty of strikers, you have plenty of midfielders.

    if I was taking the piss I would have said Welbeck.

    Wilshere is one for the future, yes we want a striker, but not at the sacrifice for one of our star midfielders. We will get a striker, and keep our squad intact, strengthening us, ;-).

    And no way in hell would we trade Wilshere for Hernandez. Maybe if it was Suarez, or someone like Ibrahimovic then MAYBE we'd consider it, but Hernandez?
