In the words of Kenny Dalglish: Mibbes aye, mibbes naw.

Assuming they beat Juve (which looks likely), they'd be favourites to beat the winner of Inter/Villareal. So a final against probably Barcelona or Milansmiley - bigeyes. Can't wait.

Oh my God! I just can not believe what I have just seen! Juve just lost it altogether!

Best chant of the night? "Patrick, Patrick what's the score? Patrick what's the score?"

However - must not get too overexcited - another leg to go but .....

They were awesome last night. Can't see anyone doing Barcelona this year though.

Too bad for Spurs if they do I reckon. I understand that if Arsenal qualify by winning it then the 4th place in the Premiership don't.

I thought UEFA had changed the rules so that the winners automatically qualified and 4th place in England did too? It'd be a shame if whoever finishes 4th out of all those teams fighting for it in the Premiership didn't get in.

Anyway, the original question - yes, Arsenal can quite easily win it. And I think Milan might beat Barcelona in the semis - I have this feeling that Barca have a bad game in their system waiting to happen.

No UEFA chaged the rules so the the chapions of Europe always get one of the slots allocated to that country.

Basically if Arsenal win the C League and finish 5th, they get our fourth C League spot and Spurs go into the UEFA.

1919 all over again then.

There'll be tears on the seats at White Hart Lane then.

In the last league before WWI Tottenham Hotspurs were top of devision 2 but at the resmution the team in 2nd Arch rivals Arsenal took their place at the start of the next season. Of course they have never been relegated since. I can just imaging the Spurs fans drawing parallels.

I'm just hoping the Juventus pull their finger out and win it. That and wondering how many empty seats there are going to be at their ground.
