Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeah!
Get in there!
We were shite, but who cares?! Yes it would have been nice to go through by playing well and scoring but in all honesty it doesn't matter. They couldn't score over 180 minutes even with the help of the referee so they only have themselves to blame. Not too sure why they are saying we deserved to go through and god was on their side.. That is bollocks.
If you play 180 mins without scoring then you can't win. More to the point you DON'T deserve to either. So shut up!
Lehmann is a sex god, I had a funny feeling he was going to save it, but you naturally fear the worst, although the look on Riquelme's face before he took the pen wasn't exactly extreme confidence!
The boys didn't play well, they were too scared to play, too scared to be fluent as they knew if they lost a goal it would be so crucial. We have never played such an important game and you could tell how much it meant.
I think the heat and general fatigue took it's toll as we looked pretty sloppy in possession and our work rate wasn't as high as it might have been. A lot of shouting at the tv was had by all I expect! Clichy came back and did ok after some initial positional problems, Campbell stood pretty firm, Hleb was ok, Ljungberg likewise, Gilberto had a decent game. Henry and Reyes looked tired as did Fabregas, but at the end of the day.. WHO CARES?!
Now we have time to re-charge the batteries and I expect to see Walcott given a run out in the next few games so that'll be something to look forward too. Not that we need it!
We are going to Paris! Not to sure if it's sunk in yet, AC Milan and Barca will fight it out tonight to face us, the mighty Arsenal in the final!

Yipppppppiehhhhhhhhhhhh
Totally agree who give a shit how we got there, cos we are in the final because of the way we played last two rounds not this one. We didn’t need to play well to go through, with them being such a poor side going forward.
Any other team would have been 3-4 goals up with the possession they had on Tuesday night.
But we now have to pick ourselves up for the biggest game in Arsenal’s history.

finnally we are there, no less than we deserve personally im pleased with barca in the final they suit us more. the final will be close they have some great players most notably ronaldinho, deco, eto'o and puyol. but if your talkin bout great players theres only one that matters in this match he is the best player in the world and can spark magic from nothing his name is thierry henry and with him on our side we can achieve anything. statistically we have the best defense europe has ever seen we have conceded just one goal and if we keep a clean sheet against barca it will be awesome. one thing is sure it will be a fanatastic final most of the 22 players first in europe and we will see the two most aesthetically pleasing sides in the world against each other the fight for henry begins because you have to feel whoever wins will get him.
Bring on Barca, Lehmann to be knighted!
