The footy !!

First 20 mins were jaw droppingly good. Best passage of play I've seen us play in years.

I'me very annoyed at the 2-2, but in the cold light of day, it's a decent result.

Agree with Olly, wasn't a penalty in the 2nd half and it was probably less of a penalty than Messi's in the first half. But wont make excuses about the refs, will leave that to Chelsea fans.. ;)

The fact Messi was our worst player says a lot about us. A great team performance. A massive shout to Busquets.. I know he's not Grego's favourite player :lol:, but he was outstanding.

All in all a fantastic game.. looks like all the quarter finals are close.

post-match thoughts

Barça bossed the first 50minutes (horses against tanks) (at times it was embarrassing)
Walcott made a massive difference
the penalty was non-existent
the sending off was even more non-existent than the penalty
Barça should still do it, despite being without 2 key centre backs
edgar davids looks odd without those bono shades
I feel depressed
goodnight

Puyol came from the back to impeach Fabregas to shoot. It is a penalty.
I think Puyol broke Fabregas' leg, in the course.
The send off is correct; Puyol was the ultimate defender apart from the goal keeper. Fifa rules are clear about it.

or

Puyol made no direct move to Fabregas
fabregas pulled his leg back and touched Puyol behind him
Fabregas then fell down
 
Stone cold penalty, but Barca should had one too. Fabregas booking annoyed me most of all decisions. Perfect tackle, not even a hint of a foul. Not that it matters for him now.

I expect Barca to win big at home, though I hope for a miracle!

Not to mention Van Persie :!: Lets hope Arshavin and Walcott can stand upto the plate, it'd be a shame for the title not to go to the wire after the season weve had.

If you could transport Arsenal to the Spanish League I think they would do better, as their attractive style of football is similar to the Spanish game.

They were never going to threathen in the Premeriship this year. It was only default from Chelsea and Man Utd that allowed them a fighting chance. But kudos to them for chipping away at it.

Van Persie is due back in 2 weeks.

I think it will be a select ammount of places as most dont have the technology yet, i'd have thought the sky site will have a list of where its available as it is the 1st transmission.

I cant imagine the glasses staying on for too long if its a corker with people jumping up and down :lol:
