Fantastic draw. If anybody is filled with trepidation for this draw......................just think about how Barca will be feeling. They will be the team with all the pressure on them, we've nothing to lose.

If we can put 6 past the greatest bestest team of all time (Arsenal) then I fancy at least 7 or 8 against Barca. Just need to get our away form sorted before the return leg :-)

Just hope Sergio doesn't fall in love with the place when we visit.

Have you been there? The Nou Camp is falling apart. Plus he's going nowhere.

Easily the toughest draw we could've had.

Looking forward to it though. Glad I'll get to see that midfield trio of Xavi/Iniesta/Busquets in the flesh before Xavi hangs them up.

Wonderful draw. If we win, the rest of them will be cacking it for the next round and we will have had one hell of a celebration. If we lose, it should at least be a fantastic couple of games - much much better than playing Dortmund and them squeezing through on away goals after two tight low scoring defensive games.

Always said i would like to draw them but now we have im having second thoughts! Time to show everyone what we are made of

Bayern beat them 7-0 over two legs last season, what's to fear ?

Messi. he didn't feature in that tie last year.

He played in Germany and was on the bench at home, as I said what's to fear.

As a cup scheme member, I'm delighted in the knowledge my seat is already booked. :)

Also, these accounts could be a hoax but this is funny (note the time-stamp):

as roy castle famously said once "if you want to be the best, you've got to beat the rest".

bring them on!!

Better yet, as Ric Flair says. "If you want to be the man, you gotta beat the man! Woooooo!"

Bring em on. The Prem is not a two team league. We get tested week after week. Barcelona is a tough draw but the boys will be up for it. I can't wait!
