Meanwhile they've allowed 3 goals to our 0. If one of these two teams meeting on the 24th has been underwhelming I'd say it is probably Liverpool.

We've only beat Arsenal ONCE from the last 8 matches we've played them. Conversely they've beaten us 5 times. They certainly hold the upper hand and are a team we should fear.

That stuff is just media crap, especially since our team is so different and form comes into play as well. Arsenal have looked awful the first two games of the season. We haven't looked much better, but at least we've gotten the results.

In no way am I saying we should be the favourites, especially at the Emirates, but I also don't subscribe to this 'the sky is falling' nonsense or that Arsenal are going to tear us apart if we play like this...what if they play like they've been playing? We could just as easily win.

Honestly, anyone can start these match threads when they feel like it, but sure, I'll make it.

What media crap? Those are FACTS. We've got the better of them on ONE occasion for the past few years and specifically under Rodgers. At the Emirates especially, we never get a result there.

And how are Arsenal playing any worse than us?  Their attack actually looked much more fluid imo in the first 2 games than ours did, they were unlucky not to score on West Ham.
