Far better eleven than I expected. Still a bit short in midfield, but not something to panic over.
Partey should have been midfield Jax. Rice or Kivior CB. Wouldn’t be surprised to see 3 at back most of the game, when we can. I am surprised with the unforced changes to compound the needed one.
Fantastic news
Harvetz in midfield, trossard as the 9 . we will be seeing lots of interchanging among the two. COYG
My problem is, why make so many changes when Rice CD, White RB would have meant a balanced team a minor disruption. Oh well, still a strong team. No excuses on the strength part.
You could be right or not as well. All those implied changes have played those positions already at Arsenal except that Rice has never played CD
White is a good Rb but he is a Cb while Rice may have started a Cb but is a Dm. Also white is experienced in playing cb in arteta system unlike Rice. Only Partey is really out of position here though like u i would have prefered partey in the midfield as he has been our best player this season.
Look, if it all works, great. But why make unnecessary changes.
I think white is a far better RB than CB, but agree on rice, I don’t know the last time he played CB – probably a very long time
Tomiyasu has become such a big pain in the neck 😫
Can’t wait to see him and Tierney gone please 🙏
Harsh!
Great to see Saka and Timber back, I hope they stay fit through the match.
Calafiori is out when we need him the most. I’m worried about Rice playing CB
Trossard must not mess up again after making us lose five points
Rice, isn’t CB. He should be.
Rice at CB? You sure?
I might be wrong, but I’d be more worried if White replaces Saliba because White’s aerial ability is very inconsistent for a CB
Don’t necessarily agree. My problem is, why play 3 players out of position when we could have played just one. Rice at CB.
Yeah I’d also prefer White at RB and Rice at CB. We’ll see their roles in the game soon
We will GAI, this is a strong team though, so there should be no excuses on that front.
Glad to see Saka back. There appears to be little difference between the absentees for Arsenal or Liverpool now so, as others have said, there can’t really be any excuses on that front from either side.
We’ll see what Arsenal are made of. I think a draw is the minimum we should really expect along with, hopefully, a good performance as it’s time Arsenal had one.
Partey as RB means no adventures for Rice in attack, I would have preferred Rice as CB with White as RB and Jesus as AM, Trossard has been poor .
Pity we have to use Partey at RB as he has been formidable in midfield recently.He will have a tough task to keep Diaz quiet, but I am fairly confident Timber can take care of Salah on the other flank.I would not be surprised if the game finished in a draw.
Agree, except I don’t see why we can’t win it with that strength on the pitch.
we might see him in midfield most of the game, and he could actually finish in midfield when kiwior comes on.
Saka and timber return massively increase our chances. Odegaard return in the mext weeks will also be massive boost.
Just hope Saka and Timber are not being rushed back in. I hope they are really and fully recovered and fit
COYG!
no trust in zinny &kiwior why buy them then 59 million down the drain
Happy to see the Big German back, that means no space for the out of form Jesus.
It seems the gaffer doesn’t trust neither the Ukrainian or Kiwoir with Sala, which is understandable.
I am feeling nervous even though it is way too early in the season but I am very nervous
I feel like we might lose today
I am hope I am wrong
Why VVD wasn’t booked for that
He kicked Havertz
Ridiculous considering taylor clearly saw it as he gave the foul.
That’s why we need Saka!
And Odegaard as well
Odegaard and Saliba will be back next weekend
Timber is back
If we pull this one then we are back in it along with Squad depth
No wonder Liverpool values him for £150 million
Saka once again vs liv his favourite victim among the big 6
I don’t like it when we score and then go defensive though..
Merino showing signs of rust
Yeah, lots of rust. Should have scored.
We are taking unnecessary pressure on ourselves..
We need to hold the ball for more time
It looks like we are gonna concede soon
I was right
Liverpool gonna score again
I am sure
The way they are attacking and the way we are vulnerable at the back
I hope I am wrong
Both konate and the other guy took out martinelli. Not a foul????????? Someone explain
There was a handball before by Martinelli.
Hmm yeah you’re probably right.
We are cooking Liverpool on both wings.
We will score again but are also likely to concede again.
Luis diaz has 4-5 fouls but no card wtf all of them on partey too
He is offside
I hope I am wrong
Yes
Goal stands
We could have been 4-1 by now
If Merino and Havertz would have taken their chances early on
I don’t what’s wrong
As soon as we scored, Liverpool is on ball again
We must not back off and let them back in now we’re ahead, like we did for the first goal. Absolutely vital that we win this, otherwise they go 7 or 5 points ahead. Cut their lead to 1
I think it should be 3 or 4 one. If we don’t win this it will be our own fault. Haverz and Martinelli a couple of awful finishes, especially Haverz. Liverpool do not look that great outside of Salah and Diaz. Their midfield is nothing special. There for the taking, we should be too strong and clever.
Great goal from Saka and Merino. Excellent passes from White and Rice
I think we can win the game, as long as Liverpool don’t get lucky in set-pieces and if no brain fart from our players
Funny, said similar.
Good first half not just because Arsenal is leading but their team performance is so much better than in the last two games. No stupid cards either – I think Arteta must have made his thoughts clear about that.
It should be an interesting second half – the next goal (if there is one) could be decisive as to what happens by the end.
Yes. It is a fun first half yo watch, our tactics looked fluid and connecting well. Trossad is deputizing the mid field well.
Glad to see Partey, Martinellli, and Merino doing well for us. It is mouth watering to fancy Odegaard, Saliba, Califiori and more coming back.
My issue is that how is it that Liverpool players could kick the ball as they wish after they fouled us. Remember the red card to Rice? It is freaking double standard.
Partey has been immense…
He’s really gotten Diaz frustrated
With Sallah, I hope we stay alert against spaces to run into/counter-attack, i know that’s what they’ll be looking to feed him with
On Merino, i take back my bashings for now
He’s back to his best
With more to come, looking like a classic in the making
we are on faya!!!
We need to be careful
They can score out of nothing
As I don’t think they merited winning Chelsea last week
The handbrakes have been released
That’s worry
We are gonna lose Gabriel now
And Kiwior is disaster
Martineli needed to toe that ball off, as opposed to trying to control
Game is streched
And that’s not good for us
We have lost Gabriel
And now we are loosing possession
The game is too open for my liking
Bring on the kid let him run in space
What’s all with all the flopping? They need to stop and just play the match
We’re too passive. Dangerous!
We are gonna concede soon
I am sure
Take Havertz off and Nwaneri on
Bring on the kid
Too many injuries
We are not gonna win tittle this year with these kind of injuries
Suicidal!
Now we are gonna lose this
I am sure
I hope I am wrong
I think it will be draw or Liverpool win because we don’t have defence now
I’m glad you only show up on match days.
But we can beat Liverpool at Anfield if we would start
With Raya, White, Calafiori, Saliba, Gabriel, Timber
Merino, Rice, Odegaard
Martinelli, Saka and Havertz
So your midfield is better with Merino over Partey ?
A sort of inevitability about the draw I guess, particularly after the Arsenal substitutions earlier in the second half. A better overall team performance from Arsenal than recently, although Liverpool will be happier with the away point.
We need to sign a striker in January. it is important. Viktor Gyokeres.
Always assuming Gyokeres is available in January, that he wants to join Arsenal (several clubs are interested apparently), and that Arsenal can afford him. Quite a few assumptions there.
How lucky is Liverpool, we have tons of injuries. Superstition maybe, this does not look like our season so far.
Havertz did well, but I still see the room for a power forward who can really do hold up play. Nobody from the bench in the attack department can help much, I miss ESR.
Trossard is the best signing for his price, that was a steal.
Losing Gabriel was certainly a blow, although Timber looks increasingly fragile to me. However, it’s what squads are there for after all.
I said it, it’s Mo Sallah
When Liverpool need a goal, they start creating space for him to run into
Martinelli disappointed with Konate today – the guy has always been a brick wall for him
Just move the ball away from him whenever u see him,
Konate had Martinelli far far deep in his pocket
And him losing the ball to Konate again when we were wide open gave Liverpool that second
Again we looked far more dangerous when Nwaneri came on, and we should have scored a goal, how many corners are we going to be disallowed in the final moments? How many dangerous fouls does Nuniez have to make before he was sent of? Furious.
*off
We were denied an obvious corner against MC in the final minute, now Liverpool. That could’ve changed both games. I don’t know what VAR decides and what it doesn’t, but seems to just be decisions against us.
VAR doesn’t do corners!!!!!!
The linesman on that side was to blame for not giving it, although I had to see it a second time in slow-motion to be sure the Liverpool player had touched the ball last.
Glad timber and saka are in.i pray no more injuries.
We have to win this game
Raya, Partey, White, Gabriel, Timber, Rice, Merino, Trossard, Saka, Martinelli, Havertz. Subs: Neto, Zinchenko, Kiwior, Nichols, Myles-Skelly, Jorginho, Nwaneri, Sterling, Jesus.
Far better eleven than I expected. Still a bit short in midfield, but not something to panic over.
Partey should have been midfield Jax. Rice or Kivior CB. Wouldn’t be surprised to see 3 at back most of the game, when we can. I am surprised with the unforced changes to compound the needed one.
