Hes done well recently. At the start of the season he was poor.

Cesc may miss the Barca game.

i think that Cesc will miss the Barca game coz Wenger even said that i'm not gonna gamble on his fitness

 

[lyrical start]

At least Gallas us back

I was more worried about Gallas than Fabregas tbh. Although Cesc will be missed Im confident Nasri will fill his role perfectly..

is Xavi back?

 

[lyrical start]

i dont see what Neville has done wrong this season when he has played. Has he been shown up in matches? certainly wasnt against Liverpool anyway.

The guy is too slow and well past it. How can he possibly deal with Robbens or Riberys trickery & pace?

Btw it would have been a different story had Babel started.

is Xavi back?

Yep...

through good positioning and experience which Neville has. i hope you are right though. id love to see him getting raped by Ribery and being hauled off after 60 minutes with the score Bayern 3 Man Utd 0

 

[Bobby Sands]

Yep...

that makes a big difference for me. cant see Arsenal winning.

 

[lyrical start]

Barcelonas defence isn't tight so we will make alot if chances but the problem is our defence isn't great either plus we have the worst keeper in the league... Oh shit

 

[Bobby Sands]

^^the way i see it, Barcelona need to keep possession and ensure that Arsenal dont have too much of the ball. Xavi in the midfield will ensure that that happens although tbh they do it well without him lol. If Arsenal did have a lot of the ball, i reckon they could cause some problems.

If Barcelona have a defence of Alves, Pique, Puyol and Abidal. then they are pretty solid imo. Milito is decent as well. I really dont buy into this Barcelona have a suspect defence crap.

 

[lyrical start]

I disagree, we can keep hold of the ball just as well as Barca. We both play possession football which is what makes this a mouthwatering tie.

Abidal isn't playing and Dani Alves attacks more than he defends so I expect our forward players to exploit that space.

 

[Bobby Sands]

Alves has improved alot as a defender imo.

 

[2Pax]

I agree, when fit they have one of the best back fours in the world.

Neville has never been pacey though, he's always relied on his positional sense over pace. He may be a bit of a smug cunt but as a right back he's one of the best in the past 15 yeats.

 

[lyrical start]

Robben failed to make the squad.

Gomez and Klose are on the bench. Neville starts for Utd....

 

[tHuG $TyLe]

Why is Pranjic in the midfield over Tymoshuck..or whatever his name is

 

[Bobby Sands]

^^is he not on the right in place of Robben?

 

[Bobby Sands]

Klose on the bench? wtf?

[tHuG $TyLe]

Klose on the bench? wtf?

Hes scored 1 goal in the league this season. 4 goals in total.
