Ive heard things in the media like this:
" they are fast"
"they run a lot"
" they play only on the counter attack"
" they play nice football"
Barcelona are not facing a team who just defends and they are not playing a team that will attack foolishly with no direction.
Juventus and Real madrid both underestimated Arsenal and were both outplayed so Barca should take note.

As for our knowledge of Arsenal's game, if that's what a random Gooner will base his optimism on, then they don't have a lot to be optimistic about.
To be honest now, I think the difficulty of this match will be only because it's the final and the sentence "Oh my God, we're playing the final!" will be on everyone's mind and it will make them less secure and confident.
I don't mean to underestimate Arsenal, nor do I mean disrespect, but I just can't see how they could play against us and win. They can sit back and let us attack the whole match, in which case we score two-three goals. They can try and match us but would be beaten again, because they are just not on our level. They can go gung ho on us, but in that case it would be 6-2 for us. I am not being arrogant, but it's just that we're better, in fact so much better that if Arsenal win, it will be because we beat ourselves with mistakes or something like that.
I'm sure Henry will score, but that's it for Arsenal. And yes, you eliminated Madrid and Juve, but the magnitude of those names exceed the strength of their teams. Madrid are not difficult to eliminate anymore and Juve have shown how fragile they are. I'm not saying they were easy to beat, but we had it tougher. Chelsea and Milan. Enough said.
It's interesting how Gooners say "We beat Madrid and Juventus, Barca watch out". I take that as an insult.
Of course, a million things can go wrong, but if our players are healthy, we'll take the cup.
