The Gameweek rolls on with a showpiece fixture at the Emirates.

Arsene Wenger’s Arsenal host Liverpool in the tea-time encounter with a host of Fantasy talent on show.

On paper, this could be a tight and cagey affair but Arsenal’s injuries at the back may just prompt both sides to go on the offensive.

Certainly Jurgen Klopp has named an attacking line-up, spearheaded by Roberto Firmino and supported by new signing Sadio Mane and the guile of Philippe Coutinho and Adam Lallana.

That quartet with surely stretch the Gunners backline with Wenger forced to start with a pairing of Calum Chambers and new signing Rob Holding.

Wenger will look to Alexis Sanchez and Theo Walcott to provide a response at the other end, with Aaron Ramsey set to start in the number ten role in the absence of Mesut Ozil.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Walcott won't be nailed I think

    Or who begs to differ?

        Soft midfield and no out ball. Origi should have started, and Can at least over Wijnaldum or Lallana.

      Agreed. It's the primary reason I went for Firmino, and Liverpool are not taking advantage of Arsenals inexperi need back line at all.

        No I'm not saying that. I just told you he was never on pens. Taking a penalty doesn't make you the designated penalty taker.

    All this Myki v Mata talk

    Isn't Lindgard also in with a decent chance of getting the right side role

    Mourinho teams tend to have a more hard working player wide players as balance to the attacking one (Martial) don't they ?

    United fans ?
