As expected, RvP has come through to start against Barca. I hope he's fit. We really don't need him getting crocked tonight.
An interesting selection from Guardiola in playing Busquets at centre-back with Abidal. However it does mean Mascherano is in midfield which will make it a tough game.
Fabregas, Diaby and Wilshire complete our central midfield tonight with Rosicky out on the right and Nasri on the left with the licence to interchange with Rosicky. Rosicky's understanding with Cesc, Nasri and Wilshire will be absolutely critical tonight and he's a player who is very experienced at this level. I hope he'll continue to prove doubters wrong.
As for Wilshire, its his chance to make old Guardiola realise that our "B" team boy is well up for showing up a certain partnership of Xavi and Iniesta...he will just need Diaby to work his socks off and keep onto possession, something that has escaped him so far in his return from injury.
I'm nervous and excited. Time for a beer.
COME ON YOU GOONERS!!
