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.

    If I knew in advance that Liverpool would score four I'd have captained Firmino for sure 😀

    Firmino's positioning has been the main concern for me. Has always seemed deep, or when pushing forward has drifted wide on most occasions.

      i think with firminho, he is the most hard working/ team oriented player from the front 3. he is most likely to take up those positions.

    Lucky with Martial but Sanchez less lucky. If Mane or Coutinho are in for a significant rise I can easily transfer Sanchez out.
