Arsenal will Play Offensive Football Against Barcelona

Barcelona Player Dani Alves believes that Arsenal will be more offensive than usual as they are waiting for their enemies to attack and Arsenal are not known to be versatile in their style of play. They will not settle down and be contented of their one goal advantage in the Champions League.
Barcelona will be facing the Arsenal on Tuesday night for their fight to position on the last 16 teams to qualify. The Blaugrana-the style of play of Barcelona is important that it will work to be included in the last 16 teams to qualify in the Champions League. Cesc Fabregas will be leading the Arsenal Team against Barcelona. The Arsenal team will surely miss the defense of Alex Song after an injury last week at Carling Cup where Arsenal unfortunately lost to Birmingham City.
Arsenal Coach Arsene Wenger will also use the brilliance of Bacary Sagna from a suspension and of Jack Wilshere coming from an injury for the win. He is expected to give Marouane Chamakh the nod ahead of Nicklas Bendtner since Robin van Persie will not be available.

"It will be the same Arsenal as ever - an attacking team," Alves told PA Sport. "That's the way they play and I don't think they know any other way.
"I don't think Arsenal know how to play like Zaragoza did [playing defensively]. But as Zaragoza carried on attacking, not once did we sit back.
"We will look to play as we always do, enjoying our football and without changing the way we are, but we must make sure we have learned from the experience of last year against Inter," concluded the Barcelona defender Dani Alves.
