Although that picture seems very misleading, Fabregas annoyed me a bit tonight, he seemed far to cosy.

He was at home.
Aren't you cosy when you're at home?

Expected it tbh. He's made no effort in hiding his attachment to Barca and Spain in general. Don't care if he;s cosy, I care if he does stupid mindless mistakes like he did tonight.

Arsenal didn't really sit back as such. They played a semi-high line, for me, they were too cautious and they never had a get out ball, the transitional changes in play they were fuckin' woeful. They never kept the ball well enough and there was no snap in their attack. So in the end, the ball just ended up coming back and coming back, they were always second to the second ball. It was a masterclass from Barcelona, they were for me, flawless tonight.

Fabregas has told Spanish TV he was injured after 15 minutes. Why didn't he ask to go off then? Fool.

Maybe they would've....but they could've scored and still had to go to extra time.

Based on the two legs Barca deserved to win.
1st leg Barca weren't better though....they did nothing 2nd half until Arsenal scored. 1st half Barca just edged it but 2nd half Arsenal were all over Barca.
Maybe Barca deserved it but in a reality where correct decisions are given you never know.

sitting back was all we could do, camping outside their box couldnt happen, they were just too good Barcelona ripped ust to shreds but if it wasnt that the Barcelona players didnt do 1 million barrell rolls between them and the ref wasnt a cunt we would have had a chance because after the OG we had them on the ropes, the ref gave the red card 1 second after the incident.

Wanting to play against the club he loves could cost Arsenal in up coming games if the injury wasn't treated straight away

I noticed that in the replay though, he definitely wasn't smiling.

He was just non existent from start to finish. Insane selection from Wenger. Then when RVP was sent off I expected Arsh or Bendy to come on to offer atleast some threat, but nothing. Blows your mind.

Pep, well said. '' We were awesome 11v11, we were awesome 11v10. Arsenal are a great passing team but they never made 3 passes in a row tonight, we were the best team over 2 legs and deserved to win. ''

Van Persie seen the flag anyway tbh. Might not have heard the whistle and it was harsh but ultimately he only has himself to blame.

You will never be able to know, but what we do know is that Barca deserved to win in these circumstances.

I thought Nasri was quality tonight by the way, he was the only Arsenal player to bring the ball up the pitch and his ball retention was better than the rest of the side.

Not really. He turned around after he shot and grimaced as if he didn't know he was offside.
Ultimately he has only the ref/crowd to blame. I couldn't hear the whistle half the time....who's to say Van Persie with a stadium packed full of noisy fans could either?
They say play till you hear the whistle...he didn't hear it so he kept going..it was quite obvious tbh. Even if he did shoot knowing it was offside (which he didn't) the delay between whistle and shot was too short.

You think a player of Van Persie's quality shoots with his weak foot when he had plenty of time to take it onto his left? Come off it.

Didn't Messi hear the whistle in the same circumstances yet managed to stop and not kick the ball away Just putting it out there.

Which is why they weren't better (and because they were shit 2nd half). Over the 90 minutes Arsenal were better....Barcelona had more possession but I thought Arsenal deserved the win.
When it comes to poor finishing....Van Persie before he scored had quite a few good chances and didn't do anything with them.....and just now Bendtner should've done better.

Plan D + probably 10+ people. Most people are failing to recognise that Arsenal had a chance.
