man arsenal are playing extremely defensive. The're trying to tie here, but realistically speaking, barca is dominating except for the few nasri runs on the left side. To be honest, the messi claim for penalty was hard to give because clichy's knee hit the inner part of his leg which is so hard to spot.

Also, I'm sure bendtner missed on purpose when he was offside

.Seriously though, the marking on messi is fine but it opened up room for ibra xavi and pedro.

Summary: I love almunia he's a hero, let's hope arsenal regroups and we can score one

Well those who still doubted who the best team in the world is had those doubts put to rest. I've never seen Arsenal outclassed so much and lose the possession battle that badly. Also I dont want to point out the people but you know who you are claiming Barca and Messi face weak competition in La Liga they rofl stomping Arsenal and im sure the Blackburn Rovers would have a better chance. It seems every chance Barca creates goes through Messi the guy is sick I keep watching and laughing as Diaby tries to wrap him up and fails every time, id rather have us face a team with 5 Rooney's then one Messi. Anyways as an Arsenal fan theres no need to make excuses Barca is the best team in the world and they are showing it. I dunno how to react to the score line being 0-0, obviously its a huge boost going in to halftime but in the back of my head im just almost ashamed at how dominated we were.

I don't want to be presumptuous but you seem resigned to losing already lol. Hearten up man, it's never over till GG. Or when the final whistle blows. At least we have some momentum going for us in spite of injuries and cards. We just need to be passing more fluently and scoring opportunities will present themselves. Barca not scoring despite being so dominant is a reason for optimism. Football karma will bite their arse hard for not taking their chances.

Im a realist not an optimist. Unlike some I can admit to when we are outclassed dominated and destined to lose. Unlike the games vs. Man U that some people here refer to as us getting owned, in those games we actually dominated posession had equal chances and just lost on the score sheet. So ya anyways I just like to call it as I see it, as painful as it is, its over. Barca is going to bring a shit storm ten times worse when we go to the Nou and we wont have people like Fabregas and possible Arshavin and Gallas, GG.

Anyone watching Inter Moscow, at all?

Ooh there was a credible penalty appeal for Messi. Not given.

And Arshavin is off. Eboue is on. Arsenal needs to regroup?

Bendter wastes an opportunity. - oh that was offsides haha

i am watching both games at the same time. hahahahah. But barcelona vs arsenal is N times more exciting than inter vs ..the russia team.
