Arsenal will go into the final as underdogs, with a record 9 games prior to the final without conceding a goal. I reckon Arsenal will be more confident because everybody expects Barcelona to win, so we really won't have anything to lose and should go all out to win I think Wenger will know exactly how Barcelona will come at Arsenal, and will build his team around it. I doubt he'll use the same 4-5-1 formation as usual, because it's a one off game. It's a good formation to use when there are 2 legs and you want to keep it tight, but to play defensively and counter-attack a team like Barcelona is asking for trouble. My prediction is that we will play a 4-4-2, but the support striker will come back into midfield to make it a 4-5-1 when necessary. But rather than leave Henry isolated like against Villareal, I think the midfield will support him much more and be more attack minded

My prediction: 1-0 to the Arsenal

COME ON!!!!

i think if arsenal play as bad as they did against villareal..then we could be looking at a scoreline in double figures...if arsene wenger is gonna play tactics like that again then well...he may as well just put Lehman, Toure and Gilberto on the pitch on their own.

Barcelona are a completely different team compared to VR. If Wenger wants to sit back and soak up pressure and then looking for a quick break, then they'll fail miserably, and we'll be lookin at a score line in doube figures as MCD said. They're just too good. If Arsenal also play attack-minded (Barca defo will, its the basis of their team) then I think they've got a good chance - you just never know with Henry, Toure, Fabregas and Ljunberg on your team, because they do work hard and most of the time their effort does lead to a result.

Im predicting a 2-1 win for...





































































































Arsenal... :(

Barcelona will win it, it won't be a walkover by any means but I just think that of what are two very attacking sides, they are by far the better man for man. There's no doubt in my mind that Barcelona will create chances by the barell full and although they have been guilty of wasting some glorious opportunities in the competition I feel they'll get at least two in the final. Arsenals chances will be more limited I reckon, but they seem to be a the more clinical of the two teams when it comes to gilt edge chances.

At the end of the day it may well come down to the performances of just two players, Henry and Ronaldinho. Either is capable of turning a game on it's head and lifting the players around them, although the better of the two on the day might not be crucial to the final result I think it will be crucial to the way each team plays.
