Really? That´s an artificial debate. I´ve seen both keepers play and Viera is clearly better. Barbosa doesn´t convince me. In the games i saw him play he was too nervous and made some blunders. Viera on the other hand is really impressive, i´ve seen him do some impossible saves that i don´t really think that Barbosa has the ability to do. They are in diferent leagues i say. Viera has natural talent, Barbosa has an awkward style that doesn´t instil confidence.
I know why Arsenal is being critized, it's quite obvious. We're playing a spanish outfit, and most of our players are black.
I bet you guys are praying for monkey chants in the next leg, hoping it'll get inside Arsenal's head. I got news for you. We're all black, when the lights go out,

pasion1 said:yeah it was a justified win for sure (PK call or not). Villarreal were just shut down today.
BTW, on the whole debate between the medias of who is better "Viera (uruguay) vs. Barbosa (argentina)" .....like, wow. (I cant believe Fillol <Legendary Argentina 78 GK> actually went out to downgrade Viera's skills on a football show once).
But other than that, Villarreal and all their millions of "temporary fans" (IE: Every hispanic person in the world + almost every team in England who hates Arsenal (Tottenham, man u, chelsea, pool plust 95% of the EPL) + people that believe that football is the sport of underdogs.........will all come together to watch Villarreal qualify in one of the most historic games of all time.
This game is not over, and Henry's misses will come back to haunt Arsenal.
Err, real English fans will probably support Arsenal. Just like real English fans supported Liverpool last season. Mainly cos they're English, but also we ******* hate cheats. And Argentinians. So Sorin and Riquelme are good vents for our anger.
andy said:wow, you have issues
Well, we "hate" the Germans and Argies the most. History thing you know. We hate them when it comes to football that is, don't think we actually hate them. Just their footballers.
And I support every English team in Europe and I expect others English fans should too. Every country for itself.

Keeping a draw or trying to get a victory on "Madrigal" won't be ane asy task for Arsenal, also i don't think they will play the same way there being the home team. It will be a very interesting match to watch. Also got to consider it's probably the most important match for both teams so far in their history.
In my opinion Franco should be a starter instead of José Mari. And about the Barbosa issue, well from being the keeper of Banfield to be a keeper on the semi-final of the Champions League playing in England, got to give him some credit it's not like the goal was his fault even.

Villarreal has 48000 inhabitants and there were 2000 fans in Highbury. Impressive.

How come Barca only brought 5,000 to San Siro against Milan?? I mean, Barcelona is a big city and people probably have more money to fly to Italy to watch the game and Barcelona is a much more popular team not only in Spain but worldwide as well than Villareal. I think even South American teams fly more fans to away games considering the ****ty economic conditions we have down here. Don't take this as if I am disrespecting your team/fans, but it seems odd...

I don't know.. In Villarreal this is a major event. Barça has been here many times before and there's still the game at Camp Nou....
Anyway, if Barça reach the final, Paris will be blaugrana.
