Messi is the only player in this Champions league to have scored or assisted in every game.
Barca was just toying with Leverkusen. But a nice second half for Bayer. At least they showed some heart then and decided not just to react to Barca.
Messi is the only player in this Champions league to have scored or assisted in every game.
Only because Xavi and Iniesta are there creating space and room for him to operate in.

Creating space
P/S: Xavi didn't play and Iniesta has been out like half of the season.
lol Manchester have to wait until tomorrow

Gibbs returns for Arsenal, which means Vermaelen will play at CB (and no Djourou, thank God). Rosicky is set to start as a winger, though. I don't know about that; I'd rather have seen Oxlade-Chamberlain.
Arsenal's starting XI:
Szczesny, Sagna, Vermaelen, Koscielny, Gibbs, Song, Arteta, Ramsey, Rosicky, Walcott, Van Persie.
Getting a goal is important, a draw would be nice, a win would be great.
So I guess now we know which team you want to jinx.![]()
What a strike.
It's funny because Boateng was talking mad about Arsenal before the game, and proceeds to all over them. Still, him for quitting the national team.
Vermaelen is playing awful.
Koscielny going off, bad to worse.
lol good luck comin back down 2-0
Good thing I'm at work. Gunner better go all out for that 4th place spot in the EPL.
That goal from Boateng

Game set and match.
lol jk
Damn, the fans just left. Like it was an NBA game.
In a way, this game seems worse than the 2-8 against Utd. Then, it seemed like every shot that United attempted was going in, and at least Arsenal were able to create something going forward as well.
Today, there was nothing of the sort. They were outplayed, outhearted (I doubt that there is a word like this, but anyway) and outmuscled from the first minute up to the last. When Rosicky is one of your better and more comitted players, it speaks volumes about the team as a whole. The defence couldn't cope with Robinho, Ibrahimovic (world-class performance, by the way) and Boateng, and the attack kept running into nowhere or into brick walls of defenders.
But well, about half a year ago, there was reasonable doubt Arsenal would even make it past Udinese to the group stages. Looking back at the group stages, they took care of business, but that was about it. There was not one really good, complete game (maybe except for the home game against Dortmund). That being said, I thought that the tie against Milan was more or less a 50-50 affair, but boy, was I wrong.
, anyway, let's focus on getting a top 4 spot in the EPL, and maybe there will be something in the Europa League for us. The big stage definitely was too big for us this season.
Nobody should question my jinxing powers

Well, I'd like to think this game was a result of some jinxing powers, but I'm afraid it was just Arsenal being horribly bad.
Before I saw the match tonight I honestly thought Arsenal were going to win the tie and advance, without question. Good strike from Boateng, and that's when I think the flood gates opened, including Robinho's "debut" at AC Milan (better late than never).
LOL Bartha = ED
