Tuesday:

Arsenal v Bayern Munich | Emirates Stadium
FC Porto v Malaga | Estadio Do Dragao


Wednesday:

AC Milan v Barcelona | San Siro
Galatasaray v Schalke | Türk Telekom Arena



-------------------------------------

Arjen Robben has some advice for Arsenal LINK

quote:

"I think you can see it. It's not my opinion, it's also a fact," Robben told the Sun. "The last eight years - no trophies. That says it all. If you look around at the moment there are some teams in England that are maybe stronger than Arsenal. I cannot speak for Robin. He made his decision.

"Again, I live in Germany, I don't live in England, so it's very difficult for me to really judge this situation at the club. But if you see there are always players leaving and when they leave, at that moment, they are the most important players or the best players and, if you keep losing these players, then every time you have to try to build up again.

"Mr Wenger has shown that he can do it. He's a great manager, he's shown that by improving young players, but the trophies are also important. You already said it. There's a difference. I can understand it - the disappointment. Eight years without a trophy is a very, very long time."



------------------------------------

LINK Wenger thinks if Arsenal beats Bayern, they can win it all


quote:

"If we go past Bayern Munich, why should we not say we can go further in the competition and win it," Wenger said. "It looks as if the FA Cup is more reachable than any other competition this season, but you don't really know how difficult it could be. If you compare the FA Cup to the Premier League, clearly we have more chances to win the cup as we are too far away, but you never know.

"Our basic target is always the championship. The real consistency of a team is the quality that is judged over 38 games. The priority is the championship, but I told you many times that we take the FA Cup seriously. We prepare for every game like it is a final."




LINK Jens Lehmann thinks Arsenal is in a tough spot.

quote:


"For an English team it is the worst draw to play a German team directly after the winter break," Lehmann said in a column for Sport Bild.

"In addition to that Bayern has not been really challenged for once yet in the second half of their season. The only stress they have is the one at the training sessions.''

However, the former Germany international does believe his old side have the players to cause their opponents problems.

Jupp thinks Javi will be fit for for the clash against Arsenal: LINK


Looks fit to me

What kind of non-Aryan swine is that?



Should be a good game for about 30 min, looking forward to it. Love watching Bayern play when I Get a chance. Unfortunately I will have to record due to work and class.

I'm really looking forward to Tuesday. Should be a highly entertaining match. The Porto/Malaga should be a good one as well.

Hendo, if Bayern makes the UCL Final are you making the trip?

Bayern Munich screwed Spurs out of the Champions League this year when they lost to Chelsea in the Final. If they beat Arsenal, we won't get screwed again this year (assuming we stay in Top 4).

C'mon Bayern!

Exact same level of crowd. Don't be a pussy this time. You might make it half time.

I'm excited. Mainly because we've scored 2 goals on 70 shots our past 3 matches so law of averages and what not.

Have a feeling we're going Giroud-less and playing more athletic up front. Something like:

Poldi-Theo-Santi
Jack
Arteta-Ramsey
TV5-Kos-Per-Baccy
Szcz
