Alex Song has made a habit of talking to the press and has now stated that he wants to face Arsenal for Barcelona’s last 16 tie of the UEFA Champions League.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-Song-c4804 left very few Arsenal fans happy as he pounced on the opportunity to sign for the Catalan giants Barcelona at the end of last season.
Song had spent almost his entire career with the North London outfit and barely had any impact at the club’s fortunes during his early introduction at the highest stage.
Capping just one good campaign for the Gunners in 2011-2012 season, the midfielder attracted interest from Spanish giants Barcelona, and when the Camp Nou outfit came calling for the Arsenal man, he did not hesitate in even thinking twice.
Song’s departure left many Arsenal fans fuming at his decision and the now http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 man has done nothing good to win the hearts of the Gunners faithful.
The former Arsenal man seeks headlines of different magazines and radio stations as he has adapted it as a new profession, following his lack of minutes on the pitch.
Song has just made a few appearances for the Catalan club since joining and likes to utilize his time elsewhere
The midfielder recently blasted his former club for their current performances and did not keep his cool as he described his former employers as an academy that prepare players for a bigger stage, called Barcelona.
The controversial midfielder has again gone on to add fuel to fire as he has now stated that he would like to face Arsenal in the last 16 round of the UEFA Champions League.
"Of course, I would like to play against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429," Song told reporters.
"For me to go back there, where I had seven magnificent years, would be something very special.”
"If we draw Arsenal I’d be happy to see the fans again, go back to the club, even though if we go there it will be to get the best result possible.”
"Arsenal’s a big club, but I think Barcelona’s a level above, because of the talent of the players there.”
The draws for the next round are to take place on 20th of December 2012.
