Yep there was barely any contact and certainly not enough to warrant the appearance of a torn ACL, a torn meniscus and a broken femur.

City have the players to turn this around, but I'm not sure if they have the manager to do it.

Biorhythms are not where they should be.

Ya Ya's back. That said, I expect Barca to score at least two, which means city, well are stuffed.

City can score two. Highly unlikely but the second half performance was good this evening.

The penalty and failed missed from 6 yards out might come back to haunt Messi and Barcelona but i doubt it. Even so i wont rule it out. Maybe if City get the first goal we might see Barca panic like city did.

City did well in the second half, they have positives from this evening to take to Spain.

Man City are well capable of turning it around, but they cant play like they are half asleep as they did yesterday for 45 minutes.

3-2 to City in the second leg is a slim possibility and nearly all refs are egotistical prancing wannabes. We're never going to get consistency out of them so the least we can hope for is common sense.

Arsenal 2 down. Left themselves wide open for the second goal.

Giroud has missed 3 sitters in this half, don't rate the guy at all.

He is an up and down player.... good enough for Arsenal to do their usual 4th place and out in the early stages of the knockouts...

Berbatov still has a great great touch.

He does a job I guess but when I watch him play he doesn't excite me in the slightest.
