Both matchups have potential for entertainment.
Arse vs Yellow Submarine
-I am still not convinced of Arse's new defence, but I admit that they are getting better. Still show flashes of inexperience and mistake as shown by Eboue and Flamini vs Juve.
Villareal have done well against English teams however. Still worried about their inconsistency. I mean, winning by away goals against Rangers is nothing to really brag about.
Expecting more open attacking football. Henry and Fabregas vs Forlan and Riquelme. Could go either way, but I say Arse has a bit more quality on their side than Villareal.
Barca vs Milan
-Well, Barca's been most consistent of 4 remaining teams. Can't go wrong with Ronaldinho is pulling the trigger. If Milan plays defence like they have against Lyon, I expect Ronaldinho to pull a Hulk Hogan and run wild. (Ok. Etoo and Messi can help) Barca can finish, so Milan has no room for error on defence.
Having said that, Inzaghi's been sniffing some good crack and come up with some timely goals and Shev is always dangerous. Now if Pirlo can wake the feck up and play like he can, it might be Milan running wild.
But I put my money on consistency of Barca |

Safe to say NO ONE predicted this.
But both semis should be extremely interesting.
Milan - Barcelona
So tough to choose, especially sinc i'm a DIE HARD Milan fan.
Much is said of how old/weak Milan's defence has been, but guess what?
I'm not sold on Barca's defence either. You mean to tell me that
they'll have enough to shut down Sheva, Pippo, Kaka and company? NO WAY.
I see no shutouts in either game for either club.
Prediction: Milan 4-3
Villareal - Arsenal
What can i say, surprise surprise.... Both club have been VERY impressive and def DESERVE to be here. But i have to give the edge to Arsenal. Somehow their defence has turned into a DOMINATING force - 8 STRIGHT SHUTOUTS?!?!?
A LOT of credit has to be given to Arsene Wenger. Bringing such a young squad this far by beating freaking Real AND Juve? Remember when all hope was lost when Cambpell and Cole were lost?
Must be said that it would not be a surprise to see Villareal pull through either - FULL credit to this club as well....
Prediction: Arsenal 2-1 |

All I can say is that if Arse fans want, they could be majority on Yellow stadium, because their "fans" love more the money than "their" team (see Rangers match).
Barça or Milan, the final winner of the CL. |
