We looked a bit scared to express ourselves in that home leg last year. We barely created a chance when it was 11v11. I think we'll be more confident to go out and try and win this year.Prestwich_Blue said:Let's not forget that they beat us via a penalty that probably shouldn't have been and a late goal after we'd played with 10 men for most of the second half (and one of those was Lescott). In Barcelona we lost 2-1 and again it was a mistake from Lescott that handed them their first goal on a plate and they finished it off with another goal from Alves in injury time. All of their four goals were eminently preventable.dekabreak said:Just saying a few things:
The Barça we faced last season is superior to the one we'll face in February
Luis Enrique is the Spanish Moyes.
Let's hope we can get better referees than last time around. And hopefully Pellegrini isn't scared of them
I was thinking that, an extra day's rest will help.LoveCity said:Just thinking, Liverpool could have a Europa game right before we play them at Anfield depending on their scheduling. We are home to Barca before that game.

Suarez !
Because uefalona will get pen and ref assistance like usual. Geez whatever as long as messi don't hack and injure aguero again like last year i'll be happy.Silva_Spell said:We'd have to beat at least 2 of Real, Bayern or Barca to win the thing so may as well start now
Anyone saying it's fixed should probably wonder why they would give 'UEFAlona' the best possible opposition
No Yaya could be a blessing - injuries permitting.
