It's my honest opinion that ARSENAL FC of London are swimming in DEEP WATERS, having been drawn against the GREATEST FOOTBALL/SOCCER CLUB IN THE WORLD in the Quarter-Final draws of the lucrative UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE.
A lot of claims have been made stating its a 50-50 game; that Barca and Arsenal play the same pattern of football; that the Arsenal players, who were before now regarded as inexperienced, have finally come of age.
Well all these claims are RUBBISH. Which leads me to make a player-player ranking.
* Valdes - Almunia: Victor is better than Calamitous Almunia anytime any day. The current call up to the Spanish national side serving as added morale boost for the Barca no.1.
* Xavi - Fabregas: Fabregas is a gifted player who someday might become THE WORLD BEST PLAYMAKER, but that definitely will be after XAVI and INIESTA'S RETIREMENT.
* Alex Song is no comparison to Yaya Touré, He(Alex) commits so many fouls and it will be in Arsenals demerit if He is to be the one to watch out for MESSI. He might see RED.
* Barca's backline cannot in anyway be as poor and as weak as Arsenal's. Alves cannot be in the same class as Sagna, Puyol in same as Gallas or Vermelin or Pique be in same with PENSIONER Campbell.
* Messi is the BEST PLAYER IN THE WORLD!!! and not in the class of Arshavyne of Samir Nasir. Even Pedro, an upcoming WORLD FOOTBALLER, is a player above their class. So many wonder, which combination of Arsenals defense line-up can stop the MERCURIAL MESSI??? WHO??? Is it Clichy, Sol, Vermalin or even Song???
It's my strongest belief that Arsenal's undoing will be from trying to stop Messi from being himself thereby allowing space for someone else, like Pedro of even Ibrahimovich.
* Ibrahim, even being at his worse state is FAR BETTER THAN N. Bentdner.
So therefore, I know that Barca will deal heavy blows to Arsenal at both legs, at the EMIRATE and at CAMP NOU.
P.S: A good news coming from the Nou Camp, is that XAVI and PIQUE has started training with the rest of the squad to attain FULL fitness.
