    I think people saying 'bully them' haven't seen a lot of Barcelona playing. I don't think it's actually possible. For a team of midgets they are made of stern stuff.

    Except the second biggest lad in there team in Busquets. Who won't be playing anyway.

    One point for me. I'd be happy with that to be honest. Wouldn't be happy against Spartak and Benfica obviously.

    Any Green Brigade members on here? Or anyone associated with them, know one, whatever.

    I have a suggestion for the banner. Which as I'm typing this I think it might not actually be allowed in a UEFA competition.

    If it is. After monday's 'Edinburgh agreement' and the recent marches in Catalonia I would LOVE to see some kind of banner showing (if of course the GB agree with it) support for an independent Scotland and Catalan.

    BARE IN MIND! INDEPENDENCE IS NOT ABOUT ALEX SALMOND!

    :)

    So there you go. If it's allowed it would be * superb on many levels.

    I'd love to see this as well. Might not be possible with the tifo already arranged though. I don't see why it would be against UEFA rules and even if it is, * them. :smiley-laughing002:

    So that's Pique, Busquets and Puyol missing the game against us... anyone else?

    I don't think there's been a better time to play Barcelona in recent years. They still have the best midfield and forward line in the world but I think we're stronger defensively with Pique and Puyol. We can definitely score a few goals as long as we don't sit back. If everyone gives everything they've got I can't see any reason why we should lose either game.

    I'm glad we're not playing them while they're managed by Pepe Guardiola - he had them playing the best football I've ever seen any team play. I know it's the same team of players, but as impressive as they've been this season they were still better last year and the year prior.

    There's no doubt they'll create alot of chances, cut open out defense on occassions, but no gaurantee they'll score these chances and they're vulnerable from set pieces - which we've improved on tenfold in the last year.

    With their defensive injuries there's every chance of nicking a goal. We just need to hope they're not on fire like the night they beat Bayern Leverkusen 7-1 in champions league last season.

    Who will play right back for Barca?

    I assume Mascherano, Song and Alba will be playing in defence?

    Montoya, I'd imagine. That sounds about right, yeah.
