Arsenal fans had a reason to take cover behind their couch on Monday morning after they attracted Barcelona the Champions League last-16, having tumbled to the Catalans twice as of late.
Barcelona planned the European disposal of the Gunners in both 2010 and 2011, the first of which came in the quarter-finals and the last in the round of 16 where they will meet in February one year from now.
Lamentably for Arsenal, they will head into the tie as genuine underdogs, and Premier League rivals Manchester City couldn't hold up to rub their noses in it having lost to the Catalans for as far back as two seasons.
Taking to Twitter, City declared their own particular draw – a fantasy tie against Dynamo Kiev that gives them a phenomenal opportunity to achieve the quarter-finals without precedent for their history – before complimenting Arsenal all alone installation.
