Arsenal vs Milan will be a spectacle to make us proud

39 guns December 21st, 2007

When Arsenal built the Emirates Stadium, it was for occasions such as these.  On the 20th February 2008, Arsenal will host AC Milan in the UEFA Champions League.  And on that night, there will not be an ounce of trepidation in my body.  Not because of Milan’s shaky domestic form, nor our own impressive record at over-turning European giants.

But because this is exactly the kind of match that makes European football great.  Only a coward wanted us to draw Porto today.  The match with Milan is an opportunity for heroes to be made and for ninety minutes of football to become mythology.

I can’t wait.
