I dont think ashley cole was apart of gay orgy. Since the guy is already engaged with some girl from band Girls Aloud.

Anyhow i heard Willcock is in the squad for tonights match.
 
Real Madrid have a full complement in their attacking armoury after Raul returned from a knee injury as a substitute in the weekend win over Alaves.

He is available to partner Ronaldo in attack, although Real also have the luxury of being able to choose from Robinho, Antonio Cassano and Julio Baptista.

Zinedine Zidane, Jonathan Woodgate and Roberto Carlos are also due to return to Real's starting line-up after being left out against Alaves.

Former Everton midfielder Thomas Gravesen is also expected to be recalled as Real look to build up a commanding first leg advantage.

:shock: I can't wait for tonight! :applause:

BRING IT ON!!

I will be at the pub tonight to watch Arsenal beat Real Madrid at the Bernabeu!!

Its going to be fantastic!! Yippee!
 
With only Henry as the senior forward available,I wonder how injury-laden Arsenal will line up tonite?..hmmmmm.Wenger should use the damage limitation formation.
 
Not trying to sound too negative and as much as I hate all this galactico bollocks, Real has too much firepower just look at Gedtillo's formation...

---------------------Ronaldo--------------------
-Robinho---------------------------------Beckham
------------Guti--------------Zidane------------
------------------Gravesen----------------------
R.Carlos---------------------------------Cicinho

Subs:
Cassano
Baptista
Raul

I know you gooners are getting sick and tired of hearing this but it really is damage limitation if you can get a 0-0 than you've got every chance of qualifying at Highbury
 
This match will be full of goals. Arsenal NEED to score away because Real WILL score at Highbury.
 
Imagine if Guti and Gravesen were Makalele and Essien, and they had decent CBs. I dont think the team could lose. :lol:
 
I've got sucj mixed feelings about the game tonight!

My heart thinks if we go out there and play football which Real will let us do we could make a game of it. Then I think of the poxy 4-5-1 we will probably line up with and think this could be a long night.

I'm really looking forward to this match though as I always wondered what would happen if the teams met. Unfortunately when I first started thinking that we were the unbeatables, now we're the unwinnables!

My sorrows wont be drowning...my 'Joyous celebration' will come along in a lifeboat and save the sorrows.

Then they will package them up, put them on a plane and fly them over to Wales.

Then it will be transported to the Millenium Stadium for the Man United Supporters, just intime for 26th Feb when Man U will get beaten by Wigan in the Carling Cup Final.
 
I heard Reyes is fit for tonight. So does he play 2 up front? Or bring on Reyes in the second half for Pires and keep it 4-5-1? F*ck knows, but we NEED to step up to the plate... so to speak. COME ON ARSENAL!

Real Madrid v Arsenal preview


Arsenal welcome back Jose Antonio Reyes for the first leg of their second round UEFA Champions League clash against in-form Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Reyes has recovered from an injury sustained in the recent draw with Bolton Wanderers and takes his place in an inexperienced Gunners squad.

With several key players absent for the tie, Arsenal face an arduous task to stop a Real juggernaut which has been picking up speed in recent weeks.

Arsene Wenger has taken just 18 players to the Spanish capital, with captain Thierry Henry likely to be partnered up front by the returning Reyes or Freddie Ljungberg.

Dennis Bergkamp's flying phobia has ruled him out of the game, while Emmanuel Adebayor is ineligible and Robin van Persie injured.

Wenger continues to have problems in defence after deciding not to take a gamble on the fitness of Ashley Cole.

Lauren, Sol Campbell and Pascal Cygan are all injured, so the back four is expected to comprise Emmanuel Eboue, Philippe Senderos, Kolo Toure - who will miss the second leg if he is booked - and Mathieu Flamini.

Boyhood Real fan Robert Pires is looking for a big performance, while 16-year-old Theo Walcott will be on the bench.

In contrast to Arsenal's domestic difficulties, Real are in rampant mood having won their last six matches in La Liga.

They also have a full complement in their attacking armoury after Raul returned from a knee injury as a substitute in the weekend win over Alaves.

He is available to partner Ronaldo in attack, although Real also have the luxury of being able to choose from Robinho, Antonio Cassano and Julio Baptista.

Zinedine Zidane, Jonathan Woodgate and Roberto Carlos are also due to return to Real's starting line-up after being left out against Alaves.

Former Everton midfielder Thomas Gravesen is also expected to be recalled as Real look to build up a commanding first leg advantage.

England captain David Beckham will also be treading carefully as he will miss the second leg at Highbury if he picks up a booking.

The hosts are without Ivan Helguera, Raul Bravo, Francisco Pavon, Diego Lopez, Pablo Garcia and Oscar Minambres, but their absences pale in comparison to the players missing for Arsenal.

While Real's demanding fans will expect a top performance from their Galacticos, Arsenal are under pressure to secure a result, if they want to keep alive their hopes of winning silverware this season.

Another reason to dislike Madrid. The guy has been playing well over the last few seasons (bar injuries) and the only thing they can comment on is his weight issues :roll:

edit: OMG...Macca looks so wasted on TV!
 
WOW. Out of all those stars at Madrid, Henry was the only one looking like a Galactico.
 
Arsenal was shaky in the 1st few min.Henry dominated the whole defence.He unleash HELL on them.He should`ve score 2 easy.All in all Gunners did well,it`s not over...but DAMN it feels good\\:o/ \\:o/
 
If Real Madrid score early in the first half of the second leg then it will be quite a match I think! That fat shit Ronaldo is SO overrated - I can't stand the ugly goon. Real should play Cassano and Raul in the second leg.
 
i feel like crying, i know it isn't over but i feel so proud to be a gooner. what a performance. i'm not gonna say to much as words just don't really sum up how i feel.

Macca looked like acholic and seems to have put on some weight. You got to admit though ronaldo is a fat slob now. Tonight just showed why the fans dont believe in him. I bet he regrets saying those pre match comments.

On the match, Arsenal deserved victory. Although im not a fan of arsenal, i was glad they won purely for the fact that they were the better team and wanted it more. Real turned up thinking all they had to do was turn up, playing arrogantly as always thinking it was gonna be walk in the park. Fabregas,reyes,eboue and henry all played very well although there was abit of play acting at times. I thought it could easily been 2-0 if arsenal were more confident in front of goal. Real madrid should be ashamed of themselves with that performance at home. Players like ronaldo,zidane and the whole of defense just didnt work or play good enough.
