    Come on Arsenal, 2 goals and you're in the semis, just do what you did at the emirates. Need to knock some sense in the back four cuz they're horrendous!

    The problem with Arsenal is they always try and walk it in.

    No Fabregas, no Asharvin, no Eboue ... this is what happens. :(

    Our season is over. The sooner Arsenal fans admit it the better. We had a good run.

    I'm talking about Rafa Marquez on Barca.

    He's shutting down Arsenal in the second half.

    Pretty boring second half. Arsenal certainly had some chances but poor touches around the box have cost them.

    Arsenal's defense and mentality under the circumstance is definitely not god like.

    LOL! Exactly what I was thinking. I haven't watched too many UEFA games....but damn, that guy had some nice chip shots today...just floating it over the goalie making it look soooo easy.

    hispanic??? :confused:

    Well, good thing he proves me wrong. :eek: I thought he wasn't needed in the Mexican national team, but he's earning his spot again. We'll see him in Houston in May. Dale, Rafa. Dale.

    Gallas (Defensive starter)
    Song (Defense starter)
    Van Persie (World class starter)
    Fabregas (World class starter)
    Arshavin (World class starter)

    All missing. They had a D-League team out there with a few exceptions. That doesn't work in football. Absolute trash, but that shouldn't take away from the genius of Messi. Immense dribbling, textbook finishing, and unparalleled vision.

    More interested in seeing what Man U can do tomorrow. Barcelona vs Inter is going to be great because as high maintenance as Mourinho is... damn he's good.

    Agree, scoring 4 goals in any level of competition is a feast in itself.

    The first goal was explosive. The second goal was good touch. The last goal, he should have passed to Keita, and a little luck. That kind of selfishness is a knock on him in my book. And it's probably a counter example to vision.

    Arsenal on the other hand was abysmal today, but their defense even w/ Galla and Song ain't that good anyways. At the end of day Messi was too much for the gunner to handle.
