Cazorla > Cesc
Wilshere, Diaby > Song
Arsenal have never been like Barca at any stage anyway, Arsenal are like Dortmund.

Re: Chelsea are the closest thing we have to Barcelona
First of all, there is no team close to Barcelona relatively speaking.
However i would disagree with urban here, We still are the closest team to barcelona in terms of playing style if you have to choose.
Chelsea are not interested in possession, they are like Madrid at best.

I would say Dortmund are more like Madrid.
Oscar, Mata, Hazard are all possession players. So we've almost automatically become one.

Re: Chelsea are the closest thing we have to Barcelona
you will naturally have possession, but possession isn't RDM's Ultimatum Obviously he would love to have it, but unlike barcelona RDM will go for the tactics which will provide the best result, like last year.
Dortmund are a hybrid between Arsenal and Madrid

Re: Chelsea are the closest thing we have to Barcelona
To be honest, Bayern and Barcelona have too many similarities, the only thing missing in Bayern is Messi-like Player, but I guess Robbery equal Messi.
Youth player base club, Possession base, FCB, Humble club, 4 champions league each.
During Van Gaal era I used to confuse Bayern fro Barcelona and of course we maintain Van Gaal philosophy, only made few adjustment such as playing our CB deep and became a little bit more direct and uses natural CF.
German national team is based on Bayern, Spanish national team is based on Barca.
Rensing/Kraft-------------Valdes
Lahm---------------------Puyol
Schweini------------------Xavi
Kroos---------------------Iniesta
Badstuber-----------------Busquets
Breno---------------------Montoya
Contento------------------Fontàs
Muller---------------------Pedro
Alaba----------------------Muniesa
Can-----------------------Thiago
Weiser--------------------Cuenca
Trochowski----------------Bojan
Hargreaves----------------Fabregas
Guerrero------------------dos Santos
Ottl----------------------dos Santos
Lell-----------------------Jeffrén
Hummels------------------Pique (Only thing missing is that Hummels refused to comeback from Dortmund like Pique did with United)
You can ship players like
Boateng
Ribery
Pizarro
Bayern made them.
Although I hate Barcelona, I have to say they are too similar to Bayern Munich, only thing they have done better than Us is obviously Messi, I believe Kroos, Muller and Alaba have the ability to suppress Xavi and Inesta.
The 2 FCB are too similar, possession base, national team representative.
