Didn't see the goal but not surprised as he is a special player which I had hoped we could sign this Jan.Quote:

3-1 Nuno Mendes, that's a lovely goal.
I think that’s Villa done now have to say
PSG look so good. Different animal really to the team we played at the start of the season.
Agree with this, but I still think we stand a better chance against them than Villa.Quote:

Villa have done us twice in two seasons at the Emirates and I recall we were maybe lucky to win at their ground this season, plus playing English teams is boring plus we swept PSG aside previously so I'd much rather them than VillaQuote:

I thought Inter were shit when we played them, they had a good ten minute spell at the beginning of the game after that they barely threatened….got awarded a ridiculously soft pel (quelle surprise) and held on because we were going through a can’t score goals if our lives depend on it phase.
Barcelona would probably fit our style of play better but at the same time this is a team that managed to come from two nil down against Atletico Madrid away from home last month to win 4-2.
It's really about your last paragraph, the style Inter plays doesn't suit us. Also I think overall in the league stage they ended up conceding the least goals (or was it Liverpool)?
In all competitions this season I'm not sure we've lost to any team that plays attacking or possession based football.
So while Inter, on paper, is the weaker side, this season seems to suggest Barca should be the team we are hoping for. Still can't figure it out.
Anyway it's still a long way ahead, so we should probably get off our high and focus on this weekend.
