Barca 19 shots on goal. Arsenal none. No doubt it will all be about the sending off though.

84% pass completion from Barca

TBF, mate the regeneration of East Manchester is far more important. If you look at the outline plans put forward by City, you will see that Manchester is going to benefit greatly. The scale of the plans are mind-boggling. Manchester will become the centre of sport in this country.
