Barcelona Watch.


















For the upcoming mouth watering clash with Arsenal and Barcelona, We'll be keeping an eye on them to see how well/poor their playing in La Liga.

Pep Guardiola's men beat Osasuna 2-0 at the Camp Nou on Wednesday evening, the goals coming from Ibrahimovich and Bojan.

In the first half, Barcelona were very poor, subject to that Pep Guardiola got stuck into his players at half-time for the dismal performance, and they were 5 minutes late out of the dressing room, he then took Thierry Henry off for Pedro at halftime to try change the game, and it worked.

On 72 minutes Ibrahimovic released the pressure when he stroked home a cross from Maxwell after good work and one of the best moves of the game between the Brazilian and Iniesta. Barca weren’t going to settle for just the one goal and as they pushed for the second the game became an end to end affair, with neither team in complete control until Iniesta dribbled his way in from the wing and set up Bojan to make it two and confirm a valuable and hard won three points.

Their defence certainly wasn't the best, Osasuna had some really good chances to score themselves due to a few lapses in defence from Barcelona trying to play a very high line, something Wenger and Co will look to exploit when they visit the Emirates on the 31st of March.
