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.

    Terrible terrible start as usual. Looking at a 2m GW rank at best

    Players who hop onto the pitch when they come on as sub need a slap.

      Double pool miss might be way to go, regardless of their fixtures.

      Predicted drop from 35k to 100k. Liverpool delivered to many

      People on this site.. 🙄

      An hour into the season and people are slagging Firmino and begging for him to score some points. Ridiculous. 😆

        People forget how inconsistent Coutinho is.

      Just a snippet of advice folks...

      You don't get previous points for the players you transfer in.

      Iwobi injured. Now Rambo down. Nightmare for Arsenal. Santi coming on

      • 11 Years

      Ok now I might just keep Vardy

      No Europe, no defence, Liverpool are going to go full on blitzkrieg this season. Going to be fantastic to watch. It COULD be their year.

      Why hasnt Klopp bought a left back? I dont get it...

      1. Paul Psychic Octopus
        • 15 Years

        there's still time...

        I think after watching Moreno today, he will up his bid for Hector

      3. Van Klinkert Delarosa
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        For our amusement.

        Same as Wenger, hasnt bought a centre back and a striker... Mertesacker Gabriel not good enough,& both injured..

        Let flannagan go, so he must be getting someone. Liverpool won't do anything with moreno. Maybe Klopp will rely on milner as fullback, big risk though.

      Classic arsenal

    12. Van Klinkert Delarosa
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      An injured Ramsey is better than Coutinho.

      1. Bubz
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Wot

      Santi looks cute in that slimfit jersey 😆

    15. Mark-O
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      An experienced Cazorla should help Arsenal

    16. Rath
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Vardy must be licking his lips!

    17. walkman666
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Coutinho kicks field goals for the NFL, too!

    18. mitro
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      come on firmino might as well get a goal to rub it in on us

    19. Jigger & Pony
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Now that's more like it Coutinho - row Z

    20. FISSH
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      People will buy coutinho and he won't do anything for weeks.. Or will he be a beast this season?

    21. FPL Maldini
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Definitely a waste of a transfer doing Firm to Coutinho.

      Firm will outscore Coutinho in the long run I bet

        Tyler to Carragher - "So is this game over now Jamie?"

        Carragher responds - "No not yet. Not with the left back we've got."

        Burrrrrn!
