PL: Liverpool vs Arsenal | December 29th | KO: 17:30 | BT Sport

[HBL]

I first thought it might be 4 at the back but it's defo 3 with AMN and Kola at wing back. Need much more effort from AMN tonight, last 3 games have been insufficient performance-wise.

A lot riding on Iwobi and Ramsey going forward. Expect Xhaka and Torreira to be decent but need more from the other two ahead of them.

This is close to the right lineup with what we have in the squad IMO. Think Saka should come on in 2nd half if one of Ramsey and Iwobi are playing ****.

Highly likely.

Glad to see Maitland-Niles starting. He needs the trust of the manager. Hopefully Emery will get repaid!

 

[kraphtous]

Have some some god damn faith, Dutch always has a plan!

Wel Auba is going to have some fun chasing random clearances from our defenders. How do you bench Laca? I’m so sick of this fake Juande Ramos’s choices.

I said this guy is not the guy to take us forward. Poor choices everyday. Watch us get smashed.

If Iwobi plays tomorrow, which he now inevitably will, I will absolutely go into full meltdown and launch into a vicious, verbal tirade at the first person that pisses me off on here.

Iwobi over Lacazette damn!!! No Özil ... gods may help us!

 

[razörist]

Sp**s just lost 1-3 at home to wolves. Can’t believe it.

Ok if we lost today we have something to smile about

 

[Rimaal]

El Mister doing his damnedest to prove the club should keep Ramsey and sell Özil.

Silver lining.

 

[ptrcopp]

Best lineup with that paper thin squad we currently have. And Sp**s losing at least.

Minus Laca and Özil

 

[Maybe]

I have no idea what will Iwobi play, basically he will take Laca's place with less skill to execute it.
Özil is done here, probably Laca after him.

At the contrary, it’s will make it worse... I hate when other teams left points behind and we don’t take those chances. We always drop points at key moments.

Actually a good line up....with the exception of leaving out Lacazette, I dunno wtf we'd do that when we are playing 2 upfront? Really Emery? Really?

Anyway I like that we're using AMN to cover at rwb cos honestly Lichtsteiner is god awful going forward.

Still though I can't believe he's leaving out Lacazette if we are truly playing two upfront, it's almost unforgivable, hopefully we can still get something out of the game especially as Tottensh!t have dropped points.

EDIT: Actually upon thinking about it for 2 seconds Emery probably wants Lacazette of the bench to possibly make an impact, but that's not the way we should be thinking. Firstly we need to put more faith in our youngsters (cos frankly they are all we have), and you always play your best line up first, and worry about being a smart*ss later on, that said hopefully Auba can still do the business.

 

[razörist]

Now we can beat Liverpool without feeling guilty of letting Sp**s come closer! Let’s go!!!

It's 3-4-2-1 boss.

Honestly don't know whats that about. I'm both Lacazette biggest fan and biggest critic but I felt Lacazette was our most lively attacker in first half against Brighton, then taken off early and now he is benched.

I still hold up the idea he has some fitness or stamina issues which isn't obvious to watcher eye but the coaching team know about with all the data they collect.

Ramsey is captain sometimes i don't get how this club run making a guy who leaving for free a captain

 

[turkish gooner]

Nice to see Sp**s couldnt hold their pooop and sh.it on their pants

Think it is a nice gift to say thank you for a player leaving after almost decade here scoring winning goals in our cup wins.
