Nope.
Only three winners Barca Milan or Henry
Arsenal wont win it. Henry will do it individually. Otherwise winner for my money comes out of milan barca
Barca have been the best team in the world for the past 3 seasons, I think winning the CL would be very worthy to such a great and dominant team

Pfft...Arsenal, when on form, are one of the best "teams" in the world. They work together as a unit and every player on the park contributes. To say Henry carries them is absolute rubbish. Sure, he makes a difference, but in no way will he win the trophy by himself.

Word.
If AC Milan can get into gear they're my tip- such quality all over the park- Kaka, Shevchenko, Nesta, Cafu, Kaladze, Seedorf, Inzaghi, Gattuso... I don't think they've played at all well to get to the semis, but if they fire...
Yeh, their match against Barca is gonna be pretty fucking titanic. I just hope they don't give each other too much respect and play out an overly cautious tie.
Imagine if the replicate their first half of last seasons final- what a cracking match that'd be :-0

pffft and what about Ronaldinho for Barca
when Arsenal get those one touch passing moves cranking there aren't many other teams in the world that counter attack better
so yes they can go all the way. and they will :p

Shame we don't get a Barca v AC Milan final.

What about Ronaldinho?
What about Motta, Messi, Carlos Puyol... etc etc.
Barça are a fantastic side. They will definately be deserved winners if they win. I think it would bring some credibility to the competition seeing as the best team has won as opposed to the last two seasons. Before you jump down my throat both the previous managers of the two victorious teams (Messrs Benitez and Mourinho) said they didnt think their teams were the best in the comp when they won.
I cant be arsed searching for the articles where they said that either.

Take Henry out of Arsenal and they won't win shit. Arsenal minus Henry would come 6th in EPL I reckon. He's a freak. Everything revolves around him

Barca can win the CL without Ronaldinho if he gets injured/suspended. Arsenal can't without Henry. Simple.

Arsenal have kept 8 clean sheets in a row in the Champions League
that's respect right there
last time i checked Henry wasn't central defence
You need to score goals to win football matches. Thats what Henry does.
Granted, you also need to conceed less than the opposition, which is why you need a good defence but the majority of the Gunners goals come from Henry (either directly or indirectly) and I dont think Arsenal would fare so well without him.

I think Barca. I think they deserve it.
But honestly, I could see any of them winning it (Except Villareal)
Winner of Barca - Milan to take it, beating Arsenal in the final. (Plus I hate Arsenal :P)

Word. I know that was kind of cringing for a Utd supporter to say.:thumb:

I don't think they've played at all well to get to the semis, but if they fire...Sorry, didn't see Palace part of the ECL:P . And what an Italian sounding team that is BTW.
Imagine if the replicate their first half of last seasons final- what a cracking match that'd be :-0Or their second half.:-0 :-0 :-0 :-0 Oh oh o oh.:P :)
Shame we don't get a Barca v AC Milan final.Jeez, you cockney socialists are rather disparaging of your fellow Londonites aren't ya? Oh well, maybe the Hammers will get there in... ah... never.... um..... I mean nofuckingchancies. Don't worry, at least you'll have your wins over the Gunners to keep you comfy on that cracking thud down to the other life, next year.:P

Whoever wins will deserve it. One thing's for sure though mate, it ain't gonna be Chelsea.:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: .

"For burns and bruises, I use Heridoid. It takes the h out of hANG(us please we have a club built on fans who'd rather kill a person than look at them)ST. Fuck, that blisters. But now with heridoid you can attract Russian people with shady pasts to buy your club and buy your life. Either that, or you can sniff it, and be in your very own fantasy land where you can keep on spouting big dollops of plop."

last time i checked Henry wasn't central defenceDidn't you see? Arsene did a fast rendition of a cloning procedure and put 11 Henrys out there. Nuff said. Even then we still bought all of them for half the price of Drogba.:lol: XD
edit: MODS please delete this thread. There should only be a thread about this if the Gooners win and since we've never looked likely, and are likely to play 2 spirited goalless draws with Villareal and get punched out on penalties, I think it is in appalling taste that we have this stained reminder on ITM, when we do.
And what an Italian sounding team that is BTW.Hmmmm as opposed to the very English-centric team fielded by Arse against Juve?
* Lehmann
* Eboue
* Toure
* Senedros
* Silva
* Fabregas
* Flamini
* Hleb
* Ljundberg
* Reyes
* Henry
Best of the British right there lads :thumb:

Three cheers for Captain Obvious! Chelsea wont win because they were knocked out (by a better team) remember? :slap:
