walcott scored after less than a few mins on the pitch, but still its a huge task for arsenal to come back to even draw 2-2.
GOAL
walcott
2-1
got hope
spoke too soon, but still i reckon the game is for barca to lose, they do look somewhat leaky at the back, i guess its time for a change soon...
it took wenger 69 min to realise that he should play speed.
when arshavin was injured, walcott should have gone it instead of eboue.
barce weakest link is leftback maxbell.
smart to put walcott at right wing.
Even 4-2 here will not bring them to next round. Barce can hit 5-0 at home. Bye bye to UCL, next year bah.

arsenal play well against teams like sunderland, burnley, newcastle lar, but against Barcelona, who is the pass master, its like master vs student. look at the type of players barcelona have, pass master xavi and iniesta and best player of the world, messi. arsenal got who, the most is fabregas, an up and coming young world class midfielder, where got enough.
henry came on for a cameo appearance really.
warm welcome for henry
barca shd throw all subs to protect the lead....henry does nothing these days..
He can help to put in some own goals.
seriously lar, Barcelona should try to buy Torres from Liverpool. if Torres does join Barcelona, they would be invincible man. RM for all their money and riches, buy ronaldo, kaka and benzema, they have a collection of galaticos, but they are not a team. Barcelona then can be called a team.
Wenger face very black, he deserve it, trust his primary school striker can make it, dream on.
penalty kick. red card for puyol. what a wierd twist of fate in the match
Fabregas scored the penalty kick. 2-2 wow. what late drama.
penalty!
game on
puyol red card
2-2
see, throw in henry for what...wasted...barca manager not too bright afterall...
Barcelona no puyol and pique for the return leg. but still Barcelona is the favourite to go through at the Nou Camp, after getting 2 crucial away goals.
10 vs 10 in the end...
oh messi is playing ah
other than one shot in the 1st half
i din know messi is playing. what happen to fifa world player of the year?

he must have thought Barcelona is cruising, so why not give henry a chance for the crowd to cheer him on.
henry is just passing the ball to arsenal players....

why dun he just score an own goal for arsenal
Xavi is such a good passer of the ball. to stop Barcelona you need to stop Xavi and Iniesta in midfield.
Fabregas is limping, not a good sight to watch. he must have aggravated his injury and might be out for 1-2 weeks.
Gunner is out, Only a win in 2nd leg become mission impossible.
