Arsenal (A) - Sun 4th Feb 2024 (4:30pm)

[Dicko]

What I'm hoping for in this match is for the Liverpool players to score more goals than the Arsenal players.

I think if we can achieve that we have a decent chance of winning the game.

Didn’t work out at that way at Spurs.

I have every faith in the PGMOL officials arbitrate the match fairly & evenly.

Is that the odds for an Arsenal win? Should be 1-10 at least.

Expect Arteta to have Arsenal revved up to the max Sunday like his maniac self. Get through the first 15 mins and I'd hope we'd get a grip of them. We didn't have Dom for the cup game and had Harvey in the front 3.

I bare the scars of Mascherano away to United and this seasons Spurs game. Let us (and them) play, we win.

 

Start dishing the yellows and reds in first 20 mins then forget it

Think you may have missed my point. I expect Arteta to have Arsenal fly at us. We get through that I expect our midfield to get a grip of the game as I think our 3 are better than theirs

I think when both teams are at their best, we are superior everywhere. But it's hard to always be at your best and we were definitely there on wednesday. We'll need to be approaching our best to win this imo.

Agreed. I think we'll definitely be under the cosh beginning of the game but I think the difference to the cup game will be having Mac, Dom and Curtis in midfield. I don't even mean having more possession than them, just stopping them playing through us like they did in the cup. Just hope Nunez makes then bench as could be set up for a decent day for him.

Absolutely massive game and a real test.

 

Could be a statement day.

My reply wasn’t related to yours as such- I agree Arsenal will fly at us, I just hope the game isn’t ruined (eg- Spurs game) by bad refereeing or VAR

I'm guessing Bradley won't feature tomorrow now, which is a shame, he deserved to keep his place.

Not sure he's ready for an away fixture like this yet after running himself into the ground on Wednesday

I think @manwiththestickwas referring to the fact that Bradley's dad has passed away @magicrat. But I do agree with your comments anyway even if he was available.

Yeh , my mistake 

[stringvest]

very sad for Bradley.  I actually feel slightly less confident about the outcome now he won't be in the team, as I think he's a quicker and more tenacious defender than Trent.  But we should still have enough to outscore them.

Agreed, but as somebody else said at least he saw him make his breakthrough.

It was quite hard for Arsenal to score in that match to be fair

I wouldn’t have put it past the officials in that match to award a goal to Arteta.
