The Champions League Final is tomorrow and I really hope it is as exciting as the FA Cup Final on Saturday. I really hope Barcelona to win beacuse I'm a Tottenham supporter. I think Barcelona are the better team and are wll equiped to win, where as Arsenal are a much younger team and not as experienced.

Fabregas is world class too - I think Arsenal have a chance if Ronaldinho has an off day.

Barcelona are just that bit better than Arsenal, so I'm afraid I'm going for Barcelona.

I'm staying with the general consensus.

The absence of Lionel Messi won't hurt Barcelona, if anything it will help them as they can replace him with a more experienced and more defensive midfielder who can win the ball for Ronaldinho, Eto'o and Deco to weave their magic.

Fabregas - and Messi - are going to be world class. I don't think they are there quite yet; Messi shows flashes of brilliance and Fabregas is consistent, but I'd rank them just short of the highest class for now.

3-1 Barcelona is my prediction, with the Arsenal goal from Henry and the Barcelona goals from Eto'o, Deco and Giuly.

No a Norwegian team won... the ref and his two linesmen.

Yes, Mr Hauge had a bit of a shocker if truth be told. The red card was spot on but his inconsistency was shockingly bad for a European Cup final. However, Arsenal fans shouldn't be using him as a reason for their defeat - Barcelona were the better team on the night and if it wasn't for the ref giving Arsenal a free-kick for absolutely nothing, I don't think they would have even scored at all.

How great was that game, im from an Arsenal area but hate the team.

Did anyone see TH's interview with sky? He slagged off the Ref and most of Barcelonas players. He said something along the lines of Ronaldhinio being overated, oh and he argues with the ref after he got his medal too, what a prat.

The ref was crap. Any ref with a half a brain cell would have allowed the goal to stand. Too right he slagged off the Barca players, what kind of fair sportsman gesture yellow cards to the ref when they get fouled?! As for Henry's booking, well if you get booked for wanting to win the ball and only focusing on the ball then we might as well re-write the rules of the game.
I admire Arsenal as they have reached the Champions League Final without spending loads of cash on players (*Chelsea and now Tottenham*), they have some of the best young players i the world (Fabregas, Eboue, Senderos) and most of all I think their fans are excellent.

All I demand is a fair game and a good spectacle.

That was neither.

Horrendous refereeing. Lehmann's red card was fussy and, given the advantage, needless; Eboue could have been sent off for basically kicking van Bronkhorst in the groin (I can't call it a tackle), then dived to set up the free kick; Henry was indeed fouled a number of times without punishment, and was booked thanks to a dive from a Barcelona player; the whole game was farcical.

The only thing that could have made that game better was if the thunderstorms in Paris had become so severe that postponement was required. That match needed to start again with proper officials.

I lived 10 mins from Highbury for 25 years, never met many decent Arsenal supporters I can tell ya.

Arsenal always seem to whinge after games, every team has a game where they are treated unfair, theres nothing you can do, Im sure they have had times when they have had "luck" while others havent.

The Arsenal Goalkeeper Gave an excellent interview, he said "it's over now" meaning lets not go on about it, whats done is done, moaning and slagging people off will not change it.

Oh and I was a supporter in the days of George Graham, when they sacked him I went off them.
