Surely there is no way Barca can come back from this in the 2nd leg..when was the last time they failed to make the final 8?

Against us I think. When we beat them the second game 4-2 at the Bridge.

PSG were tremendous there and that's me who really does not like them, or Barcelona.

Tbf I don't remember these two playing against each other in the CL recently.

Stil, it's a great accomplishment but I don't see them going through this time.

Something crazy must've happen like a red card, penalty or both very early on,

Always a pleasure seing Barcelona get humbled , no matter who the opposition is , PSG were simply amazing today, just world class and only a brain fart in the 2nd Leg will prevent them from reaching the Quarter Finals, and as great as Barca are i cant see them overturning this huge deficit, maybe if they got away goals.  PSG vs Barca clashes is miles away from reaching the heights of our clashes with Barca in the past, remember that we faced Ronaldinho, Etoo, Deco, Messi, Xavi, Iniesta, Puyol, Villa, etc... all in their prime and always gave them a great game, no matter what the outcome, our record vs Barcelona since 2000 in the Champions League is ( 4 W, 5 D, 3 L ) and during this period we went to many semi finals, won a Champions League and lost a final. PSG are a great side and are definitely on the right path but they need to win it first, i want to see what they are really made of this season, still a lot to do, still a long way to go, im backing them to win it this year considering they will knockout Barca, money and quality players will only get you so far, this apllies to City too, it requires more a lot more than that to win the Champions League, and luck plays a huge part in it, dont be mistaken, as we learned during the years. Cheers

Hopefully sit back and watch Arsenal have their arse handed to them in Munich later.

You have 2 eyes for a reason. As a species I've no doubt we only grew our 2nd eye due to a burning desire to watch 2 different games of rock-throw at once.

THE Champions League has returned after a lengthy break and nobody at Arsenal is sure whether they have gone out yet.

Arsenal staff now face a race against time to find out whether the club will be required to fly across Europe to be overwhelmed by someone like Barcelona or Bayern Munich.

Arsene Wenger said: “This is definitely the time of year when we usually go out of the Champions League.

“In fact I tend to mark it in my diary for a week or so after we surrender the title race, which would make it this week.

“But it’s also totally possible that we imploded in the group stage, lost to someone like Ludogorets and have already gone out, in which case I can make dinner plans for tonight.”

If Arsenal are unable to find a fixture list, they are expected to travel to Munich anyway and to fly back the next day presuming they have lost 3-1. 

Fan Tom Logan said: “I have vague memories of the group stage happening, but that could’ve been last year or an advert for a computer game.

“Being an Arsenal fan you tend to lose any sense of time passing. In many ways it’s like being a toddler, or a dog, you simply alternate between wild, delirious excitement and incandescent rage.”

Come on Carlo...

I thought the point of third kits was to wear them in cup competitions, yet Arsenal stick with those yellow ones. 

[Amblève. 4,995]

Koulibaly remains an overrated player for me. I have yet to see a decent game of his.

[Dahnald 256]

How many penalties do Arsenal need this season to get a result?????

Bellerin with a clear handsball. What the fuck seriously Arsenal have been so lucky this season in both the Premier League and the Champions League.
