‘Arsenal is better side than Barcelona’
By ANITuesday, October 19, 2010
LONDON - Arsenal is a better side than Barcelona at the moment, according to Shakhtar Donetsk defender Darijo Srna.
The Ukrainian club plays Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium in a Champions League game between the two sides.
Shakhtar Donetsk reached London last night, The Sun reports.
Shakhtar have played Barca twice in the last two seasons - in the Champions League and the European Super Cup - and the defender believes that their current opponents are a cut above the Catalan crop.
“They are a very quick squad whose offensive players are really strong and aggressive. I would say they are performing even better than FC Barcelona now,” Darijo Srna said.
“But we are also a good squad with strong players. Shakhtar always create lots of attacks but, perhaps, there will be less offensive action here in London,” he added. (ANI)
