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.

    I'm feeling pissed but not worried about Firmino, he's going to score a lot(also this game is not over). Amazing Liverpool, though, fun football. Still, they're not going to play Arsenal every week.

      Why no Firmino. Super frustrating player to own. Listening on 5live and haven't heard his name mentioned in last 20 minutes!!!

      1. Boydinho
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Strange that. Served Coutinho a brilliant ball in the box that he missed.

      2. Frank Black

        Frustrating player? He was my best buy last season, lol!

        • 13 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago
