This fixture has the makings of a great game of football but do the Gunners stand any chance??

No, as much as Highwayman will protest and say Arsenal are going to the final its just a pipe dream
Barca will beat them over both legs
No. I have to admit Arsenal will get a hiding. If Newcastle can come back from 4-0 down what can barcelona do 10 men or not? Arsenal are going to need 5 clear golas to win The only way Arsenal have a chance if they defend well which they won't. And if Barca aren't as good as normal. The first game might be tight. Barca will run away with it in the second leg.

Help Keyla in her fight with cancer. Every little helps.
It could happen to any of us.

I agree Benny. One look at the remainig fixtures Arsenal and United have and you have to say that Arsenals are a lot more appealing. You could easily see where United will drop points on those difficult away games.
The league is not as cut and dry as the 4/7 price for United suggests in my opinion.

Personally I think this Barcelona team is the best club team I have ever seen in my lifetime, and I include the great AC Milan team of the 80s in that(yep, 35 and counting).
As a United fan and on a greedy note I would like to see someone beat Barca just to get them out of the way but I cant see Arsenal doing it. They will try to take Barca on in a football match and I fear just like last year they will come out second best.
Thats no disgrace to Arsenal, look at Real losing 5-0 to them and they are second favourites for the Champions league.
If you look at it, the only 2 teams to beat Barca in the past 3 years were United and Inter, and both times they adopted a defensive approach to the game, so IMO that is the only way someone will stop them as well this year.
Anyway, just my tuppence worth.
