Re: Arsenal vs Liverpool 2015/16 PL (Preview/Live Thread)

I don't think so, if Giroud didn't get dropped against Crystal Palace he won't get dropped against Liverpool and he shouldn't.

I'm hoping Wenger doesn't change anything from the Crystal Palace squad. I would understand if he preferes Oxlade-Chamberlain on the right but not at the expense of Özil playing left.

[RealGunner]

Same team as Palace

[RealGunner]

Rumours that both Koscielny and Mertesacker are out lol

[Jay29]

Chambers and Gabriel start. Mert and Kos mysteriously missing.

wtf

Cech; Bellerin, Chambers, Gabriel, Monreal; Coquelin, Cazorla; Ramsey, Ozil, Alexis; Giroud

That's PL best midfield imo

[RealGunner]

Liverpool starting with a midfield of Milner-Can-Lucas

It's going to be a lot more difficult now. Rodgers is clever afterall. We'll struggle to create a bit

[Jay29]

Mertesacker is ill while Koscielny has a mild back problem.

The quartet of Chambers-Gabriel-Coquelin-Cazorla need a big game now.

[Great Leader Sprucenuce]

Pls stay injured for Saturday.

[EL Patron]

If either Gabriel or Chambers want to be starters then this is the perfect opportunity to show that they have what it takes. Since Kos and Per are both missing, need Santi, Ozil and Sanchez to stand up as technical leaders on the pitch.

[RealGunner]

Let's see how they handle Benteke's physical strength and Frimino/Coutinho's trickery.

Think a draw won't be the worst result now

But let's hope our attack win us the game.

[REWB]

ill be shocked if we win this lol, wtf. we are going to get hammered. chambers is only decent if he has someone experienced alongside to guide him through a match, can gabrial do that? we'll see.

[Raptorgunner]

Not even September yet and we have half squad missing. Typical Arsenal season.

Chill

Giroud, Sanchez,Ozil, Ramsey got this

[urbaNRoots]

Went from confident to shit scared in two seconds after reading our line-up.

[RealGunner]

Same

Watching them assess the teams on MNF. Liverpool look like prime 70s Brazil atm against Derby 07/08 Arsenal

[Rev]

Went from confident to shit scared in two seconds after reading our line-up.

Same feelings

We'll get a better look at our back-up centrebacks tbf...and just as I was typing it our backline fell asleep and let Benteke behind

[EL Patron]

Chambers distribution is putting us in trouble ffs, calm down and take your time lad

[Twoism]

We played like dog turd, that backline was so bad especially Chambers. Couldn't hold the ball to save our lives.

[Sina]

God Bless Cech

Cazorla as experienced player having a poor game

[RealGunner]

lmfao knew we won't turn up.

Forget Chambers. What happened to Sanchez, Cazorla, Giroud, Bellerin and Ozil

[urbaNRoots]

Need to calm down imo, we are at home playing as if we're at Anfield.

[Jay29]

The sudden loss of confidence seeing the team sheet has been entirely justified after that performance. The lack of composure and control from the team has been criminal. Goes to show how important Koscielny and Mertesacker are, not just as individuals but as a partnership.

[Sri]

[RealGunner]

If we could pass the baller better. Then things would be so much more simpler.

We had a period in the first half around 10-20 minutes where we were absolutely dominant. Great passing and were getting in their half easily.

That was sadly the only time we played like ourselves.

This could get ugly if Liverpool score 1.

[EL Patron]

love that Coq work in midfield
