[CL] Champions League 2012/13 (66 Viewers)

[Gheorghe Hagi]

How good is Selcuk? I hadn't even heard of him before last week, when a Galatasaray fan told me that Selcuk is their best midfielder and today I saw on uefa.com that he was the captain today.

Selcuk and Melo's performance in the midfield was phenomenal last season. Too bad Melo missed the pre-season camp in summer, where the two clubs was trying to reach an agreement for his transfer. Otherwise they could even be better this season.

Our fans like to call him Xelcuk in resemblence to Xavi. But I think he has more of master Pirlo's playing style. He scored 7-8 freekick goals last season.

Who said I'm basing this on the quality both teams have on paper? I think we're just not suited to their play style.

ok. You think we are just going to play the same way vs barca like we do vs catania

I didn't say that, bro.

 

[Salvatore]

Giroud scores.

Wow, forza Arsenal not being spineless.

 

[LiquidPLP]

Arsenal already up 1 - 0 vs Bayern. This should be now more interesting.

They need to score two more times to have any chance of progressing. Too many if you ask me but it could be interesting especially if they bag another one in the first half.

I didn't say that, bro.

but by bro do you mean always your bro, bro?

I know what you said. Technically no team's playing style suits barca. Much to jck's dismay, barca is the ultimate team. but they are not invincible

Of course, bro.

I just hope we won't get them this early.

I would be more hurt if we lost semis or god forbid final against them. Exiting in QF I can handle. But I think we might pull it off this year.

Isco has really sucked over these two legs so far.

I am totally amazed as to how football fans and pundits across the world are absolutely not considering juventus title favourites this year in CL ...

I am surprised as people from galatasary. psg, dortmund . even real and bayern say they are happy to face juventus in next round rather than bayern/madrid/barca !!

 

[Tommy]

Arsenal has worked on that defense.

Porto is too aggressiv, can see some reds in this

It suits us perfectly as it takes away the pressure.

They need to chill the F out and let the match develop in their position.

Bench, like the first game. He might come on later.

 

[Goodfella]

Selcuk hasn't got shit on Pirlo

Bayern aren't looking overly impressive at the moment.
