Please, please and please. Play our football. If we're going to watch them pass around then we might as well just give up right now.

If we take an early lead then sit back and defend we will get raped.

Since when do we get early leads anyway :lol:

I might start Eboue on the right depending on Rosicky's fitness. Would tire out their LB as well for Theo to dominate the spotlight again.

No chance of us keeping a clean sheet so we are going to need to pull out something for the ages to get through this one. Just give us a performance to be proud of boys.

Theo left eboue right

Rosicky and nasri behind bentdner.

They are mobile and can press better than diaby and denilson.

Never gonna happen. Even if they start, Eboue would probably be on the left.

Only one out of Rosicky or Nasri. Denilson's required for having one player who won't be dragged up field.

Most important thing we can do, regardless of selection is to press the ball when we dont have it. Force mistakes and take it to there backline quickly. We got behind them a fair bit 1st leg, we can do it. I believe!

Before this game Wenger prob would have started Theo in the Camp Nou, but I think he will have second thoughts after his performance today. A better option as an impact player.

All I know is that the best preparation for this game was the last minute goal, had that not occured we would have lost against Barca before a ball was kicked. What happened the last time Bendtner scored a last min goal before we played the current European champions in their back yard?

For a moment I feared that this game might have cost us three points against Wolves, but luckily the lads turned it around again.

We need to be clinical and resilient in defending if we are to stand a chance against them, that's for sure.

I rewatched the Milan tie yesterday and the contrast between our home performance against them and Barcelona was astonishing. We completely controlled that first leg and Milan were pretty much non-existent going forward. Although, Barcelona 2008-2010 is miles better than the Milan side of that season.

We need to go for it at Camp Nou , sitting back and trying to nick a goal and then hold on wont work for us. I hope Wenger tells our boys to go out there and totally disprespect Barca on their own pitch

We're playing the best team in the world. Win this and we go through to the semis of the Champions League. The motivation is there for the players.

We can do it.
