Flamini: Arsenal don't want Barcelona in the Champions League


The veteran is not looking forward to facing the treble winners, but fancies his side's chances of taking on the rest following their rousing 3-0 win over Olympiakos

Mathieu Flamini revealed the opponents Arsenal are least looking forward to facing in the Champions League knockout stages are Barcelona, though he is confident of beating the rest.

The Gunners recovered from a torrid start to their European campaign to finish runners-up in Group F on Wednesday, although that also means they could draw the likes of Real Madrid and Atletico as well as the Catalans.

And after being dumped out of the competition by Barcelona a couple of times over the course of the decade, Flamini insists Luis Enrique's men are the least desirable side they could be made to face.

"We obviously don’t want Barcelona as they are a top team but for the rest, we will see," the 31-year-old told reporters.
