TrentVilla Posted April 28, 2009 Moderator Posted April 28, 2009 Tuesday, 28 April 2009 UEFA Champions League Barcelona v Chelsea, SF, L1, 19:45 Wednesday, 29 April 2009 UEFA Champions League Man Utd v Arsenal, SF, L1, 19:45 Should be two cracking games personally I'm hoping for a Barca v Utd final and a Barca win although the thought of Henry scoring the winner against Arsenal is also appealing.
Jez Posted April 28, 2009 Posted April 28, 2009 I'm going for Arse to win it. Dont really care as long as Liverpool dont win it each year i'm happy. Still in shock that Stevie Me had the nerv to say a goal shouldn't have been given because it was at Anfield infront of the Kop (nothing to do with it actually being onside), i can actually believes he thinks that rubbish but to say it on national tv was the icing on the cake!
TrentVilla Posted April 28, 2009 Author Moderator Posted April 28, 2009 He didn't say it shouldn't, he just said he was suprised it was and that the lino had been brave. Its a subtle but clear difference mate.
Demitri_C Posted April 28, 2009 Posted April 28, 2009 i fancy chelsea to score tonight. 1-1 draw think they will shock barcelona tomorrows game will be tough to predict but going for 2-0 united win
LondonLax Posted April 28, 2009 Posted April 28, 2009 I want Arsenal to win it. I would feel a lot better about missing out on 4th if they won it and got the spot anyway.
Wainy316 Posted April 28, 2009 Posted April 28, 2009 Noooo, we need to maintain the fact that we have won more european cups than every london team put together.
Hanky Posted April 28, 2009 Posted April 28, 2009 Noooo, we need to maintain the fact that we have won more european cups than every london team put together. Yep. I don't want Chelsea or Arsenal anywhere near the European Cup. Any of the other two to win it.
Qwpzxjor1 Posted April 28, 2009 Posted April 28, 2009 I want Arsenal to win it. Then I'll feel less bad about us missing out on 4th like we did. Plus, out of all the teams involved I actually like Arsenal the best. Barcelona are amazing to watch but I'll always prefer an English team to win it, so long as the English team isn't Liverpool.
Wainy316 Posted April 28, 2009 Posted April 28, 2009 I'd rather Liverpool than any other English team. I prefer Chelsea and Arsenal to them but I don't want anyone else breaking into the elite 4 of european cup winners. And as for Man Utd, there is no way I could handle those arrogant, obnoxious, smug, never known what it's like to support a real football team clearings in the woods, winning it again.
Qwpzxjor1 Posted April 28, 2009 Posted April 28, 2009 I'm looking forward to seeing Henry and Messi. I hope they both start, they've been showing their goals on Sky Sports News and it's breathtating the pace and skill those 2 attack with. No wonder Eto'o has such a good scoring record... not saying he's not a good player - but jeeze, I could score 10 a season with those 2 either side of me!
BOF Posted April 28, 2009 Moderator Posted April 28, 2009 I'd say Barca's draw at the weekend (albeit against an improving Valencia side) was preparation/relaxation before an all out assault on Chel$ki tonight
Grant(aka_eddy) Posted April 28, 2009 Posted April 28, 2009 Barcelona are the best team in it and imo would be the most deserving winners.
The_Rev Posted April 28, 2009 Posted April 28, 2009 I want Arsenal to win it. I would feel a lot better about missing out on 4th if they won it and got the spot anyway. You shouldnt think in the short term my friend. The Villa are members of a very exclusive little club (ourselves, Liverpool, Manchester United and Nottingham Forest) and I quite like it that way. So a Man Utd - Barcelona final for me. Couldnt care less who wins as long as it is an entertaining game.
Mr_Dogg Posted April 28, 2009 Posted April 28, 2009 I'm looking forward to seeing Henry and Messi. I hope they both start, they've been showing their goals on Sky Sports News and it's breathtating the pace and skill those 2 attack with. No wonder Eto'o has such a good scoring record... not saying he's not a good player - but jeeze, I could score 10 a season with those 2 either side of me! No you wouldn't touch the ball. Eto'o is amazingly good but that put down always comes out about him. I really hope Barca do it, they should win based upon form. The English pundits seem to be a bit dismissive of them because they haven't played an English team yet so I hope they annihilate Chelsea.
Qwpzxjor1 Posted April 28, 2009 Posted April 28, 2009 As semi finals go, I don't think they could have paired up much better... Barcelona's free flowing attacking football against Chelsea dogged defense and ability to sneak winning goals... and similar with Arsenal vs Man Utd.. Looking forward to both games - I just hope they both live up to expectations... I doubt we'll see a game as good as we've been treated to recently though (Chelsea v Liverpool, Liverpool v Arsenal, Man Utd v Spurs...)
Qwpzxjor1 Posted April 28, 2009 Posted April 28, 2009 Chelsea vs Arsenal final please. Just to be awkward, yeknow?
Mr_Dogg Posted April 28, 2009 Posted April 28, 2009 So hands up who hasn't actually watched Barcelona yet this year?
Condimentalist Posted April 28, 2009 Posted April 28, 2009 I get £80 if Chelsea win the competition so from a selfish financial perspective I hope they win it. In many respects though I'd prefer it to be Barca.
