Lionel Messi vs Arsenal

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger compared Barcelona genius Lionel Messi (aka The Best Player In The World, Ever) to a videogame character, after the little Argentine blew the Gunners away in the Champions League on Tuesday at the Nou Camp.

Leo scored all four of Barca's goals in a 4-1 quarter-final second leg thrashing, prompting Monsieur Wenger to say of the Argentine:

"He's like a PlayStation (character). I think he can take advantage of every mistake you make. Barcelona are a very good side but of course they have Messi who can make the difference at any moment in the game.

"We lost against a team better than us with the best player in world. He made the impossible possible. He has something exceptional. He is unstoppable."

Well, he's definitely unstoppable when you have Mikael Silvestre in your back four, Arsene.
