UEFAlona?

Has anybody noticed how many decisions go Barca's way in the CL?

Denying Chelsea 17 penalties at Stamford Bridge?

Sending off Thiago Motta for not playing beek-a-boo with Busquets?

Sending off Van Persie for taking a shot at goal?

Sending off Pepe, a defender, for playing in midfield?

Handing out penalties against Milan as if they were White Hart Lane season tickets?

Do Barca get all the decisions? In my impartial view, they might just do.

If I remember correctly, Barcelona should have had a penalty in the first leg against Milan. They also had a fair goal ruled out against Arsenal when Arsenal beat them, and again in the second leg against Inter they scored a fair goal which was ruled out for a handball.

So no I don't think there's any truth in this. People will see what they want to see.

It's not about that though, it's about crucial decisions. You can't say United are favoured in England yet Barca aren't in Europe, from where I'm sat they are both the same.

What mrsniffy said.

Argue the decisions all you like, but the truth of the matter is that if the refs/UEFA had really instructed that Barça should go through, none of those decisions would've gone against them.

As a Madrid fan, I'll add that not only was Pepe's sending off 100% legit; he should have been sent off much earlier.

What many people don't know is that the Madrid media tampered videos of the tackle, cutting a couple of frames out so that there appeared to be no contact. Those videos are all over youtube, but if you look around, you'll find clips comparing the original footage and the tampered versions.

sir_impartial...........................................I think you are one of those fans who are so blinkered that even if something is wrong you will tell yourself it is right!

Firstly, Messi was level with the ball in that video when the first pass was made and the linesman got it wrong.

Just like they do on occasions, mostly they get it right but not this time.

Your dislike of Spurs is so biased that you cannot even acknowledge the strength of the team this season. I do not know if we will finish 3rd, 4th or even if we might mess up and slip to 5th.......................what I do know is that Arsenal are in exactly the same boat and even more so if you lose to City at the weekend.

So be magnanimous in your comments otherwise it will come back to bite you in a really big way!

All I will say is that they were penalties last night and the RVP sending off was very harsh, however is bs that he didn't hear the whistle.

He never would have swung at the ball with his weaker foot when he had time to shift it to his left and curl it in the corner.

I don't actually think Barca get all the decisions, this article was just a WUM directed at all the fan boys with their heads stuck up Barca's Arsenals.
