CL | 1/8: FC Barcelona - Arsenal 5-1 agg.

[kjk2184]

Las Palmas were more impressive than Arsenal. The potential winner of the EPL and they park the plane at home. 75th min, Busquets probably stood there 25 yards from the Arsenal goal without any pressure, what joke. And somehow La Liga is a weaker league...

What the hell is the deal with missing sitters every time we play against Arsenal away.

The last 2 times we played there, it was a 2-2 and a 2-1. This time the tie is pratically over. It could had been more, if Suarez and Neymar didn't miss their chances. Vamos!

This team is amazing!

Good away match and a great result.

They are not machines. Almighty bayern drop 2 goals lead.

This barca side has champions written all over, even if they don't play well they always manage to win.

 

[Devils]

Arsenal are such a pathetic club. Pride themselves like they are the shining light of London, then resort to Chelsea tactics to play us.

Suarez is in a 'scoring slump' - has now missed 6 sitters in a row (including Las Palmas)

Messi checkmates cech

 

[Altomonte]

But the understanding between the Barça players (all of them, not only MSN) is just wonderful to watch!

honestly we should rest him a couple of games , he is losing focus completely sometimes

 

[Trickykid]

Brilliant, brilliant result.
Even though it's somewhat pathetic for a domestic title challenger in their own den, I like the fact that they just accepted that they'd be the vastly inferior team and completely gave up on own ideals by parking the bus Mou style. Small team mentality.

A slump after scoring last game?

 

[Altomonte]

Nice to see Cech congratulating Messi ...

 

[MasChe]

what I am glad about is:
-the best 1st half in a while
-Arsenal could barely build anything at all, just a few counters and that's it
-related to previous statement, we played better sides from bottom of la liga, so that upped my confidence even more.
-Messi vs Cech

on the other hand:
-Alves was hot & cold, not a big game Dani I expected. Alba was invisible.
-Neymar still over complicating, but that doesn't worry me much, he can be clinical when needed, he is still young and playful.
