Arsenal Match

I'm sorry, but I don't understand how you can hero worship a company that actually doesn't care about you at all.

To be fair, Man U has that mantle. The rest of the premiership looks quite altruistic in comparison.

Look, get out of this negative mindset. We weren't gonna beat real, we weren't gonna beat juventus, and now we not gonna beat barcelona.

Well, i put my money where my mouth is during the real tie, and my 100 quid is looking to pay me 1500 if we win...

Sometimes i cannot believe how much english fans talk themselves down over supposedly more illustrious opposition.

Arsenal will beat barcelona, and quite likely will make it 11 clean sheets on the trot. We have a magical defence, and a brilliant attack.

It's why we're in the final, no...
I hear you, sorry it's a bit consitutional with me. I've put a little bet on The Arsenal (£10 only) winning the CL without letting a goal in....40/1 :eek:

sensibly I agree with you, but....

Football runs deeper than a brand or company, fans know that the money men dont give a shit abuot them but its not all about that, its about feeling part of something and its doesnt come from the clubs... it comes from other fans supporting one team as one... its a distraction, its a common interest, a talking point, its like a love affair or marriage and its not logical.

My my, a bit aggresive for a newbee arent you??? :rolleyes:

On the above...what do you expect us to do??? Give up on a life time of supporting a team that has regional and family links to it, just because it's run by a bunch of non English?

Dont know about you and what team you support, but us Gooners are not that fickle.

(Welcome to Urban btw. Have a Hob Nob. :D )

err no you dont, you have a potentially good currently average but somewhat lucky defence and you have Henry.

In the CL you've done well but you've been found out 11 times this season in the EPL and you were lucky that VR didnt find you out to your cost this week.....

I think he was refering to the CL only...which is magical and recordbreaking. You cant argue with that Cheif'

no denying that.....

Barcelona aren't exactly brimming with Catalonians are they?

You fuck off busterspunkbubble.

Valdes (Llobregata)
Puyol (Lleida)
Oleguer (Sabadell)
Xavi (Terrassa)
Iniesta (Albacete)
Gabri (Sallent)

All Barca academy players. 6 out of the best 11 ain't bad - obviously, Xavi is injured right now. Add in Ezquerro and we've got over half the team being Spaniards.

Indeed 5 of those 6 youth players are Catalan. So we're certainly more 'spanish' and indeed Catalan than Arsenal is English.

Just thought i'd point that out for argument's sake :D Oh, and you beign totally wrong :p

Well I thought that Real M and Juve would, so who'd bet against them?

Your nervous! Think of what we are going through...lol

It will be a fantastic moment in Arsenals history whatever happens and I get the feeling the game will be very watchable.
 
Flashman said:
Spaniards don't count :p

Fair enough though and I'm quite surprised by that. Sorry spunkbubble.

I never said they were our best players though :D Obviosuly we've got a couple of handy south americans and some cameroonian who is suppoesed to be alright...

Barcelona haven't conceded a goal in their last four CL games , Arsenal have kept clean sheets for 10 - in 4 semi final games they scored one goal each (a rate of 0.5 goals per game).

How about a prediction of 0-0 - would you bet against it ?

A possible outcome, but I've a tenner on The Arsenal not conceding....bring it on!
