The fight between Valencia and Inter at the end of their game - funniest thing I've seen in ages!

Told you all it'd be a good game! Would've been better if Barca had really given it all they had for more than about 5 minutes. They definitely didn't deserve to win the game, but hey, we're through and that's all that matters. Cracking performance. The main difference between the two sides was that Barca held onto possession, knocking it around their back three and not threatening, whereas whenever the reds got the ball, we went straight for the jugular with rapid counter attacks. You'd think we were the team that needed two goals from the first half performance.
Is there a greater travesty of justice than Carra not being an automatic choice for England? This season, only Rio Ferdinand has come close to him. I suppose Terry's had an injury-hit season, but when I see games like the one tonight (and the United game, and the Nou Camp game), I struggle to think of Terry ever doing anything as impressive recently.
Hmm...imagine if all four English teams make it to the Quarters, and are kept apart in the draw for that round, and meet during the semis. They'd be 5 incredible games, no matter who played who.
You just know UEFA would rig it so it couldn't happen, though.
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
I have a great idea - if Arsenal lose tonight, UEFA should kick out Inter and Valencia, and give their place to Arsenal for the quarter-finals!
To be honest I'd much rather play terrible and labour to a 0-0 draw etc and elimination tonight, rather than win 2-1 and go out on the dreaded away goals rule. That would be too much of a kick in the teeth.

Well done lads! You've cleverly ended your football season two months early so you can spend the next two months just going through the motions.
Oh wait, I forgot there's that big battle for 3rd place still. Thrillin stuff I'm sure we'll all agree.
Well I'm sure we'll manage to go on another European run again in about 5-10 years or so.

I mean, in a month's time, we'll have four competitions to think about, and you'll only have the one. That's a pretty big disadvantage, I've got to admit.
What battle for third? Now that we've got extra CL games and they don't (not to mention their games in hand) it's as good as Arsenal's. Mind you, looking forward to the game at Anfield. This time it's PERSONAL! And also this time we should have Momo, touch wood.
This resembles hysterical laughing more than anything.
One must admit, kids in the Europe's prime tournament = Failure
...Geddit?
Kids ffs. I'm getting annoyed by this word. Can anyone think of a better reason, please?
They aren't experienced enough?
In all seriousness, Arsenal got to the final last season and you can't expect it to a constant thing. Some years you'll do well, others you won't. That's life. Barcelona are out too, does that mean they're a crap team? No, it just means Liverpool were better than them on the days they needed to be.
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
Get over it. After the January defeats to Arsenal, Benitez was called a bungler who didn't know his best team, wereas Wenger was hailed as a visionary and an investor in the future or whatever.
Rafa's tactical fiddling and Arsenal's kids are excuses no matter what result Liverpool and Arsenal get. Both of them are probably good things, considering that Liverpool and Arsenal are good teams. But when it suits the media (and consequently the general public such as yourself who mirror their views - oh yes you did, saying Liverpool's rotation was at fault for a bad patch of form at the start of the season, don't deny it!) it's suddenly their biggest weakness.
Ah, another season ended for Arsenal. In my opinion? Good. All the arrogant Arsenal fans lately are starting to drive me insane.
I'm backing Liverpool for the Champions League and obviously, Newcastle for the UEFA cup.
4-2 tonight, we should have won by more but still an advantage is always nice when we still have to play them away.
I eat those words. Eat eat eat them.I mean, in a month's time, we'll have four competitions to think about, and you'll only have the one. That's a pretty big disadvantage, I've got to admit.
That's just the thing. We outplayed PSV in the first leg and didn't take any of our chances. We should have gone to the Emirates with an away goal lead, and had it wrapped up before kick-off. To lose to inferior opposition is hugely frustrating, and unfortunately it's something we do all too often.
Doesn't mean the media/general public/Alan Hansen aren't wrong, though. I mean, how can anyone seriously suggest that having a vast squad with a huge array of tactical options, or an excellent youth team are weaknesses? These are the kind of people who think Frank Lampard is undroppable from the England squad, and thought the same about David Beckham for about five years after he became completely useless. smurf 'em.
You used to be cool.Ah, another season ended for Arsenal. In my opinion? Good. All the arrogant Arsenal fans lately are starting to drive me insane.

When we watched the Arsenal-Spurs game, did you see the way the fans in their Fabregas shirts all jumped up and started hugging each other whenever Arsenal scored? It's your bloody reserves playing in the bloody Carling Cup you ponces.That was exactly the point I was trying to make. I hate the whole idea of "undroppable" players enough as it is. Short of scoring a hat-trick of own goals against Germany before being sent off for attempting to sexually molest Lukas Podolski, I don't think anything is going to turn the media against, say, John Terry.
