Club secretary optimistic over facing Spanish champions
Arsenal will look to 'turn the tables' on Barcelona when they meet the European giants in the UEFA Champions League last 16, according to club secretary David Miles.
The Gunners will be involved in undoubtedly the tie of the round when they face Barca over two legs, starting in February, after drawing the Primera Liga champions on Friday. Arsene Wenger's men have never beaten the Spanish club in Europe, and were knocked out by Barca in the quarter-finals of the tournament last season after drawing 2-2 at Emirates Stadium before being taken apart 4-1 at Camp Nou. But Miles insists Arsenal will strive for revenge in what promises to be a tantalising grudge tie.
