Arsenal (H) - 4pm, Sun 27/08/17 - There will be blud, innit fam?

[Baltar]

That back 5 of ours terrifies me. Arsenal are going to score at least 2 goals against that defence so hopefully our front 3 will have their shooting boots on.

[Arl arse]

How are we in the position where at the end of August we are starting a defence like that against Arsenal in the league.

Some fucking heads need to roll.

[manwiththestick]

Welcome back Alexi, fill your boots.

 

 

That's basically what we're doing here.

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

Lacazette/Giroud not starting is a bonus.

[Strontium]

Another 6-3 to Arsenal in the offing here.

 

Back 5 that day was Dudek, Peltier, Hyypia, Paletta, Warnock. Not sure it's any worse than this one.

Lacazette/Giroud not starting is a bonus.

Lets hope we have a big lead for when they come on the last 25 mins

[Red Phoenix]

No Lacazette starting? It's truly disgusting that Wenger didn't think of my fantasy football team, the selfish cunt.

[clangers]

Welcome back Alexi, fill your boots.

 

 

That's basically what we're doing here.

Maybe it's some weird strategy to try to get Sanchez to join us? It's a condition of an upcoming transfer agreement.

exactly FSG and Jurgen really gambling if thats us after window shuts

[an tha]

Big summer signing in a big game against a top 4 rival and he gets left on bench - i'd be spewing if i was lacazette.

 

You sign to play for the big clubs to play in the games against the other big clubs

[Herp McDerp]

Well I'm getting high as a fucking kite before this starts, may be able to stop myself punching myself in the face when one of our brain dead morons stuffs up at the back. Do still think we can win this, we're going to give up soft goals, but they're hardly 90's Milan at the back themselves, if Mane, Salah & Bobby are on form and Can decides to turn up we might sneak this 7-6.

Because we're fucking clueless?

[Red Phoenix]

[Red Phoenix]

[Razoray]

They have Holding and Monreal as 2 of their 3 CBs. Could be a scorefest

[Razoray]

Us to win and 3 or more goals is 9/4.

[SammyAftershave]

Nothing wrong with Mig and being benched?

 

Fucking nuts

 

Gomez and Karius.

 

Not looking forward to this at all.

 

Don't worry, Lovren and Bert have got the other side covered.

[Mark M]

That defence is a joke. After we beat boro in may if you'd have said we'd be lining up at the end of August with that defence against arsenal at home I'd never have believed it.

Shite transfer window and a mad call dropping mignolet for a keeper whose not as good.

[Redder Lurtz]

Jesus christ, that starting lineup is like our gimp XI

[Elite]

Last season was clearly for fuck all. Pissed off with the whole club at the moment.

I like your thinking, get high as fuck and just giggle at the incompetence on show in our back line.

Can I come round to yours mate, I'll bring the munchies.

[Colt Seavers]

Is Mig definitely not injured? Is a bit strange to totally drop him

From pre season games think we will play an higher line at the back with Karius sweeping behind

[YNWAViking]

Klopp on Mignolet:

 

"It is just because I want to let him have a rest after this really intense time with really good performances for us."

 

So he's been dropped because of an intense period... And because he's played well? WTF?!

 

Way to go Kloppo - this will make Mignolet unsure about his position in the team (again), put a lot of pressure on Karius, and make a brittle defence even more shaky due to having an unknown entity at the back.

 

Utter shit, this. And what a game to do it - at home vs Arsenal!

 

Sometimes understanding Klopp is just not possible. Worrying.

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

"The squad isn't big enough!"

 

Klopp uses his squad. Only a little bit.

 

"Why is he playing him and leaving him out? He's lost the plot!"

[Strontium]

I don't believe it for a second. Since when did goalkeepers need to be rested? They don't do anything FFS.
