Looking forward to the match, hopefully they learned a lesson or two from last year.
Really interested in it just from a tactics perspective

To realistically advance I think that not only do Arsenal need to win, but probably by at least 2

And Wenger is so stubborn in his ways that I don't see him changing style, in fact all I have seen him say is that Arsenal are a better team this year than last (and with the emergence of Nasri and Wilshere I think he is right)

But I still don't see how a team built like Arsenal has success against Barca, if Arsenal attack they are basically playing right in to their hand, and they don't have the players to grind out a 1-0 type win against Barca (like the Chelsea teams under Mourinho, or the Inter team last year again under Jose)
