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.

    1. *sigh*
      • 14 Years

    2. itwaswritten
      • 9 Years

    Could have been another firm assist but Coutinho just seized up there on his run to the ball. Would have been one on one with Cech.

  10. ★Kuntheman★
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Well this might make my decision a bit easier. Sadly. They look damn good with Coutinho-Firmino-Mane

  11. Ryan Naysmith
    • 10 Years

  14. Van Klinkert Delarosa
    • 11 Years

    An injured Coutinho is better than Ozil.

    1. itwaswritten
      • 9 Years

      Lololol

    • Bøwstring The Carp

      Not to be bad but if it is a hammy that is total justice to the knee-jerkers

    • Neto

      I'm not mad with this week. 57 points with hazard left. I had Capoue and McCauley on my bench with van dijk and Townsend in.

      Just because Firmino isn't in the points this week doesn't mean next week he won't, don't knee jerk

      1. walkman666
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Agree. He will get his share. This team scores more goals than most do in multiple games. The wealth should be spread. Plus, firmino had two great passes to, ironically, Coutinho, that could have easily been goals. That Coutinho....he can't score for nothing!! (Jk!).

      Firmino puts Couta clear through on goal and Couta pulls his hammy!!

      Unbelievable. Can't even buy an assist.

        Bellerin would have catched him anyway.

      4 goals and not a bleeding thing for Firmino. FFS.
