Can Arsenal pull another London Big Brother

With twelve games to go last season, Arsenal found themselves groping in the fifth place, seven points behind London rivals, Tottenham Hotspurs. This season, they manage to keep it slightly less embarrassing at four points behind spurs.

The question however is whether Spurs will take another nosedive and let the gunners secure an arguably deserved Champions League spot.

I think it comes down to the character inherent in both teams. When they clash in the near future, they're going to be fully aware of the stakes. But which of them can ride out the storm this time?

The answers that Barcelona do not have...yet.

Once more Milan show there's an answer to Barcelona's seemingly invincible prowess as they find the back of the net twice in such confident fashions.

As you would expect, Barca was the better of the two in field play, but isn't there wisdom in those few dynamic words that a tactic perceived is no tactic? Shouldn't Barca have another approach for teams who concede to their superiority and thus decide to sit back, defend, and then hit on the counter?

We've seen Chelsea do it, Inter Milan, Celtic, and now AC Milan. If they won't find a way around this quagmire, then I fear any team can beat Barca by simply using the recipe. When will Barcelona find an answer for this antedote that mars their pretty soft, smooth fantasy style of play?
