We should have no trouble scoring against Barca when we go to the Nou Camp BUT we need to show a willingness to attack, not shamefully hide in our shell as we did when we played them twice before whle Ged was in charge. I reckon Arsenal would have hammered Barca in the final had Lemon not been sent off, considering the number of chances they created so early in the match before their clown 'keeper was red carded.
We just need to be brave, nerveless and not be taken in by the hype of Barca. Hate to say it but we need to be a bit like Chelsea in the way they handled these Catalans.

They drew 1-1 last night that would do me nicely over there. I have to agree with the gist of what you are saying, just having a look at their leading scorers does tell a tale.
