I think a lot of people swallowed their pride and supported Arsenal on Wednesday&#33; An intriguing game, even though it wasn&#39;t the spectacle that everyone was hoping for. I really thought they would hang on and win it, and that would have been one of the most remarkable victories ever, considering the potential of the opposition; certainly the equal of Liverpool&#39;s victory last year (oohhh... controversial [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/Grin.gif[/img] )

Actually, I think Henry has done Barcelona a favour by not joining them. I could see Eto&#39;o getting unhappy about a high-profile striker joining Barca, and then him running off to Chelski.

Tut Tut Ivor for thinking that even if Arsenal had of won the final it would have matched Liverpool coming from 3-0 down at half time to beat AC Milan.......

I did say "considering the potential of the opposition" [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif[/img] Against a performing Barca, it would have been a remarkable backs-to-the-wall feat. But Barca were well below par last Wednesday so that would have diminished an Arsenal victory somewhat. Ronaldinho was particularly disappointing - I was hoping for some fireworks from him. Maybe he is over the hill? No problem, there is another Brazilian wunderkind waiting in the wings, it seems&#33; Have a look at Kerlon...

Now, if only Crouch can learn that in time for the World Cup, we&#39;re certain winners&#33;
