Stop talking rubbish.

Nope. 1-3 maybe

lol.. that's an optimistic gooner..

our performance for cl isn't always amazing.. so maybe you could possibly beat us by chance.. but 1-3 is kinda too huge.. any discount like 1-2?

lol. Yup you can have any kinda discount. But the end result should be an Arsenal win or atleast a draw and for us to win the league(hopefully)...

if we play draw.. then which of us would be the one to go through?.. lol..
i don't mind you winning the cl if you're happened to outplay us with a superb performance.. as the fifa always stress on.. play fair.. lol..

Arsenal!!!!! By means of the dreaded penalties... But seriously, i think Arsenal will win the CL if they continue to play like they did at the San Siro.

penalties! lol
mention five of your players who're good at penalties.. i've been offering 1-2 but you wanna make it tough with penalties.. try not to remember how van der sar earned us the charity shield victory early in this season anyway.. lol..

well.. you've defeated milan and their kaka.. what can i say?.. =P

Hey mate, i was just joking. Seriously, Arsenal had some not so great perfomances in the past 4 or 5 games before the Milan match and they needed that win at the San Siro to regain their faith and form and I am happy that they did it(First English club to defeat Milan at the San Siro!!! ). Also happy that Cesc played well in the game(Although i think Flamini was the MOTM IMO) considering that he had a recent slump in his form.

If Arsenal continue to play like this, then they have a huge chance of going to the finals and perhaps win the CL too. Also they can win the premier league too. Of course as a Gunner, i can dream and hope right...

Some decent posts in here.

I can't agree with specnur and the Eboué fans on the Ivorian though. For me, the guy lacks the class to field in the Arsenal First XI. I appreciate that he has a few excellent attributes, but overall he's a weak player at RW. At RB, he's a good player - his pace and long strides enable him to make good recovery tackles and we've seen him tested against the very best in that position where he's more than often come out on top. But once Eboué gets into a really advanced role and is expected to hold the ball up, play in tighter spaces and use vision & creativity - he lacks desperately. His cross can be good, but he only found a few good crosses in the latter half of last season and this season he hasn't produced it that much simply because he can't get into his stride on the RW position as he doesn't have the control, attacking mind or class really.

His attitude stinks and he is temperamental. He has let down the Club on many occasions and I can't take a liking to the guy or his football in that position. This season he has easily been our weakest player and biggest disappointment. He did very little in the Milan game except spurn glorious chances, just like the first tie.

On the game itself: - Well I think that we did truly outclass Milan on the night. I'm also glad to read somebody else's point that Milan did actually play some strong & dominant football in the early stages - they created some stupidly good chances through Inzaghi, Kaká and Pato. How Pato missed was a mystery, he should have buried and we were lucky on that occasion - at the time I thought, 'if Milan keep this up and keep creating these chances, we'll get rattled'. But we picked ourselves up pretty fast and once we got settled into the atmosphere and the grass, we took control; we dominated; we outplayed them and we outclassed them on every section of the field.

After those few early moments in the game where Milan produced some quality stuff, we stepped up and took control. From then it was all Arsenal, bar a few weak Milan counter-attacks and we thoroughly deserved a goal or three. When we failed to score from some great chances, I thought we might not do it, but as time dragged on and the fitness & fatigue became vital I just knew we'd go on to win it. Our players were breezing past the Milan players. Kaká's pace was useless and even when he did use it, there was a lack of support because we were just stronger, faster and more concentrated.

I'm extremely happy with the result. Not only did we knock out the Champions, but we did it in style. A Cesc wondergoal at the San Siro to make history is just a dream, and Cesc admitted that it was one of the best moments of his career. To dull that performance down by weighing up Milan as "bad" is ludicrous. We rattled them and they had no answer. Our technical level of football and our physicality was better.

i forgot to give the man of the match award to Flamini.He was everywhere the whole game breaking up pays and starting attacks and still with energy to burn at then end.He ha made me a believer he is thetype of player that players like robbie savage and steven *unt try to be but with more physically damaging results.
Cesc played good also and his goal was a shocker from nowhere.The team on the whole were very focused and even though they are getting a lot of respect in the italian press ,they weren't at thier best.

Misinterpret things if you will, but I'm really not sure where comments such as these have come from. Nobody has tried to discredit Arsenal's performance by "weighing up Milan as bad". I saw Milan make a lot of mistakes and when I say that I mean no disrespect to the way Arsenal performed. Take a look at my first post in this thread and you'll find it to be quite complimentary.

I don't mean to speak for Steely, but he seems to have a different interpretation of what words such as "outclassed" and "dominated" mean. There will always be variations in how different people use certain words, with the many discussions over what constitutes a "world class" player being a good example of this.

Several Arsenal fans seem to be going on the defensive and I can't quite figure out why. Things often get misconstrued on internet forums though, so I'll put it down to that.

The sun only gave Flamini a match rating of 8. What an insult.

They didn't give him star man either. That went to Fabregas with a 9.


What a joke.

Goal.com gave Flamini a 9 (MOTM), Fabregas a 8.5, and Adebayor an 8.

hey mate.. no worries.. there's no guarantee that my words would make things come true.. relax.. lol..

perhaps you're a little bit like Liverpool.. their performance's not quite consistent in the league.. but they're always superb in cl matches.. =)

if you're winning the cl cup.. would you please leave the epl cup for us?.. we've been fighting hard for a cup during this season too.. XD

Nope. Not a chance, not a chance. We will not leave it for you, but we will fight hard with you for it. This week we have a chance to go 4 points clear off you. But the CL is another matter.

when has Robbie Savage physically damaged somebody?

he elbowed Robin van persie in the face during an Arsenal vs Blackburn game at the millennium stadium. broke my heart!

that sort of thing happens. even the great Dennis Bergkamp has a history of elbowing!

i gave up ages ago mate.

nobody is prepared to sit back and actually read what i was saying, just jumping to their clubs defence even though i have not even criticised them. still, why let the facts get in the way of a good argument?
