Players check in to new hotel

he volcanic ash threat over Europe meant that Barça travelled to London ahead of schedule and they spent the extra time at The Grove in Hertfordshire, but today they have returned to the original schedule and have moved to the Wyndham Gran Hotel in Chelsea. 

Training session at Colney 
The players made the trip to their new hotel after training at Arsenal’s London Colney facilities this morning and will stay at the Wyndham until Sunday.
