Going to be a huge task if we're going to do it, but it can be done. Arsenal have done it over 90 minutes this year, Inter Milan beat them last year and Utd beat them in '08.

 

The main thing is for you bitter fans of other teams:

 

At least we're going to be in the final to give it a go!! notworthy.gif:toast:

I hate to say it because id like an English club to win it...but ive got an idea Utd might get walloped...you cant always compare but Arsenal are as near to Barcelona style wise in England and look how Utd struggled the other day.Id expect Utd to try to out football Barcelona just like Arsenal tried to and lost 3 nil or whatever it was....I can see Scholes and Giggs getting outworked in midfield Barcelona just have so much speed of thought....I reckon they could go down 3 maybe 4-1....hopefully not and best of luck to them....there just up against a team head and shoulders above anyone at this moment,in my opinion anyway.

Arsenal beat Barca over 90 minutes at the Emirates Gnash. :yes: They counter attacked them at pace and got a result, ironically used the same sort of tactics that Fergie has normally used against Arsenal in recent years with good results. Fergie should have stuck to his guns in the last game there instead of trying to play 2 up front. We paid the price for his over confidence there last weekend.. :doh:

 

Barca are weak to pacey attacks, if you can beat their pressing and nullify their flair players you stand a chance, but if you try to play them at their own game... mega_shok.gif:yes::laugh::thumbs:

Dunno what game im thinking of then :blink: did they not knock Arsenal out the champions league this year....anyway....Barcelona might be weak to pacey attacks but you got to get the ball off them first.....i think it will be a great game dont get me wrong,just in my book everything Man Utd do very well....Barcelona do that much better....i think they will just move the ball too quickly for Utd,s midfield....wouldnt be surprised if its a high scoring game because Utd can and probably will score goals.....again though i just think Barcelona will score more and better.

You're right, they knocked them out over 2 legs but Arsenal won the first leg @ the Emirates 2-1. Barca beat them 3-1 back at the Bernabau.

 

I can't see Fergie sending Utd out to attack Barca if I'm honest. I reckon it will be a dire game to watch for Utd fans. I fully expect them to give Barca all the possession and look to counter them through players like Nani, Valencia, Giggs and Rooney.

 

It's a huge if which I fully expect to turn into an if only, but bigger upsets have happened. :yes: Look at the Shalke team last night. To look at them last night you wouldn't have guessed that they'd have smashed the reigning champions (Inter) out of the competition 7-3, including 5 goals scored away at the San Siro.. :thumbs:
