Would a draw be a good result against barcelona in the first leg at the bridge??
It would be fair to say that barcelona are a far superior side and we cannot match them by playing possesion football.
So the best way to go is compact the midfield and cut the supply to messi from midfield as much as possible.Also we have to defend like hell if we want to limit barcelona.
A defensive approach is the best way to go and maybe score a goal on the counter with drogba being the lone man upfront,a 0-0 or even a 1-1 draw at home would not be a bad result as it would be all left to play for at the nou camp.
A bad day of football for barcelona and a good day for us at the nou camp and who knows we could be singing our way through to munich but the important thing is we do well at home in the 1st leg,so even a draw would suit us fine init!!

Your best chance of getting a result is by winning at the Bridge. You need something to defend. Barca rarely lose at Nou Camp. For such a great team Barca away record in Europe is not that great.

if you want a draw at home,0 0 would be best then

Remember they drew 0-0 at home and 1-1 at ours in 2009. We could do the same with 0-0 at home and 1-1 at the Nou Camp.

I agree if a draw then it has to be a 0-0. I would be happy to keep Barca to a nil at home, if we can do that we may be in with a shout.

No, a draw at SB and we may aswell not bother showing up for the return leg.
We can do this, i have no doubt. But we NEED to take a lead into the nou camp. Any kind of lead. We need a foundation to be able to play to our strengths throughout the whole tie, and that strength is being the protector rather than the chaser.
