cool huh vieira and arsenal stand between each other and 1of the 2 is gowing treu and it will be the first time for arsenal ore Vieira and i am sure Vieira is gowing to rock againts his old team mate's
FORZA JUVENTUS!!
Is this groundhog day with a twist?
Last season Liverpool who also wear red beat Juve and went on to meet Chelsea who wear blue and they went on to win the cup. Liverpool were poor in the league especially their away form and were short of strikers. Their talisman went to Real cos he wanted to win the Cl which ironically Liverpool managed to do. After winning the Cl they came 5th and there was controversy as to whether the defending champs would allow back to defend. Who came fourth, none other than their great rivals Everton
Arsenal who play in red, are to meet Juve, they are struggling in the league especailly their away form, their talisman has left to join Juve because he wants to win Cl. If they get past Juve , they are more than likely to meet a team in blue which most likely to be Inter. If they get to win cl and come 5th , guess who are currently fourth, none other than their great rivals Tottenham
Now if the pope or anyother prominent person dies between now and our tie with Arsenal it will be time to start humming the tune to X-FILES

Arsenal v Juventus
Tuesday 28 March & Wednesday 5 April
Form: Arsenal are struggling at home but going well in Europe, while for Juve it is a bit of a role reversal. The Italians are running away with Serie A but squeaked through the last round of the Champions League with a lucky win over Werder Bremen.
Last match: Arsenal 0-0 Real Madrid (agg 1-0)
Last match: Juventus 2-1 W Bremen (agg 4-4)
Odds: Arsenal - 11/1; Juventus - 7/2.
Strengths: In a young side, Gunners skipper Thierry Henry will have to be at his talismanic best. The Frenchman is returning to a former side, but all the pre-match focus will be on a man making a return in the opposite direction, Patrick Vieira. His midfield partnership with Emerson clicked from the off and another of Henry's old mates, David Trezeguet, will be a potent attacking presence in partnership with Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
Weaknesses: The rivals are from opposite ends of the experience spectrum which could play in to Juve's hands. But then again, Arsenal could outrun their exalted opponents. The Italians have an ageing defence and will be without Pavel Nedved for the first leg.
Your verdict:
Juventus will go through, the fact that the first game is at Highbury may have an important effect because if Juventus get an away goal they will build from there back in Italy.
Ben James, England
Patrick Vieira left Highbury in search of Champions League glory. I can bet he'll wish he had stayed on because the Gunners' firing power will blaze past Juve and with the seemingly favourable route to the final, he will be watching as Henry leads Arsenal to glory.

Vieira says Highbury return was his destiny
ROME, March 10 (Reuters) - Former Arsenal captain Patrick Vieira says he will be thinking only about winning when he returns to his old club with Juventus in the Champions League.
The draw for the quarter-finals paired the Italian league leaders with Arsenal, taking the 29-year-old Frenchman back to Highbury for the first time since he left last year for Turin.
"At times destiny serves up some surprises," Vieira, who joined Arsenal in 1996 from AC Milan, told the Juve website.
"Obviously for me it will be a special match, seeing that I'll be returning to Highbury as part of the opposing team.
"But beyond that I'll be thinking only of winning."
World Cup winner Vieira won three Premier League titles and four FA Cups while at Arsenal. The Highbury first leg takes place on March 28 with the return leg on April 5.
