Arsenal skipper Cesc: I have never been so excited about a game

Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas admits he's never been so excited about a game ahead of tonight's clash at Barcelona.

In his column for The Sun, Cesc opined: "I've never played in the Nou Camp before and this will be one of the most exciting nights of my career.

"To finally have the chance to take to the pitch at this mythical stadium is something I cannot fully describe.

"The feeling is enormous and incredibly exciting.

"It has been a long road and the last two weeks after my injury against Stoke were very difficult with the constant worry whether I'd be able to help my team in this very difficult game.

"Now the wait is finally over, I can tell you I have rarely been so excited about a football game.

"For all my connections with Barca, tonight is all about Arsenal.

"All I will be concentrating on is how to help Arsenal through to the quarter-finals. It is something that I want as badly as any Arsenal fan.

"It is about us proving that we have what it takes to beat the best of the best."
