Barca have been vunerable at the back for some time if you ask me, as Bestie says you could see the Berties having a field day up front, no joke. Why couldnt they be vulnerable at the back in Rome 4 years ago? or at Wembley 2 years ago? Nope on top form then, but City stumble into the knockout stages and Messi is touch and go and the defense is wank. Then again I suppose its the same luck that has an Arab Billionaire adopt your shitty little blue mess and turn it into Aguero and David Silva. |

They were vulnerable at the back in both finals.
In 2009 they had Toure at centre half, and a 35 year old Sylvinho at left back. We just couldn't do anything about it because we had Anderson, Giggs and Park against Iniesta, Xavi and Busquets in midfield.
In 2011 they had Mascherano at centre half, and a guy who needed a bloody liver transplant at left back. But again, we had Giggs and Park up against the best midfielders in the world.

Yeah I suppose they could of had 4 small disabled pensioners at the back and it wouldn't of made a difference, in both of those games they were solid even if they were makeshift defenses, I just hope they press City as well as they did us.

www.express.co.uk/sport/football/449336/Olympiacos-forced-to-play-Manchester-United-in-partially-closed-stadiumThe Greek club have been forced to close part of their stadium due to the racist conduct of their supporters during a group game against Anderlecht and they were also hit with a £25,000 fine. A UEFA statement read: "Olympiacos have been sanctioned for the racist conduct of supporters, insufficient organisation (of UEFA Safety and Security Regulations), the setting-off of fireworks and the use of a laser. "There will be a partial closure of the Greek club's stadium - the lower tier of the north stand - for their next UEFA competition home match. They have also been fined 30,000 euros."

If their supporters have been found guilty of being racist bastards then they should be disqualified and we should get through without playing. |

Should take the edge off of what would be a sizzling atmosphere over there
