I think you've been too cautious tbh! I'm going for 4 - 4.

 

[Stevencc]

Liverpool always turn up for the games against the big sides and Arsenal usually bottle them, this is one of the very last fixtures Wenger would have chosen to play coming off of an away loss to Stoke.

Liverpool haven't lost at home to Arsenal since 2012.

Liverpool should win this one but I'd start Giroud and throw every set piece and cross directly at his meaty French forehead.

Which is why it'll be baffling when he doesn't start.

Can't call a winner in this one as we both look good and rubbish simultaneously, which is why I went kind of on the fence for the 4 - 4.

 

[Storzy]

I think our midfield is going to get overrun. It's easily the worst of the top 6 and I just can't see us getting anything from this game.

Liverpool 5 - 1 Arsenal

LAD!

Well, I am not so optimistic. Sanchez and Kos back. We don't have Coutinho or Clyne. Mignolet is injured/ill so Karius will start tmr. Giroud might just end Karius's season even before it has started...

Sanchez being back is a big one, I still think you'll win but I've got money on both teams to score in one bet and over 5.5 goals in a separate outside bet.

Your young right back seems to be doing a good job in Clyne's absence so far, it's just the rest of the defence that is the problem!

 

[Pagnell]

Hearing that Mognolet has been dropped. Perhaps Klopp has finally realised? Shame the backup is even worse. Should still do enough for the points.

2-1

 

[Stevencc]

My main bet of the weekend comes through if both teams score in this one.

Throw away bet of over 5.5 goals too, just for what the Irish like to call "the craic".

 

[HarvSFC]

What is Saltire's response to Mignolet being dropped then?

Has Lloris been dropped by Tottenham too?

 

[Super_horns]

Sanchez back for Arsenal but lacazette out.

The lad has got to get game time, why not test him in a big game to see if he's kicked on. It's a gamble but you'll never know unless you try it.

Thought Robertson would start though.

 

[Stevencc]

4-3 to Arsenal would do me just fine but I went with 3-2 to Liverpool in the predictor.

Just goes to show this one is going to be unpredictable.

 

[Ebeneezer Goode]

Is Lacazette not fully fit or just not that special?

 

[Stevencc]

Klopp says he is "resting" Mignolet.

Let us know when Manchester United rest David De Gea against Arsenal in the league.

Let us know when Manchester United rest David De Gea against Arsenal in the league.

And with an international break directly ahead.

Such bullshit!

 

[Ebeneezer Goode]

 

[SALTIRE]

Last match he played was against Bayern Munich and he did ok there.

 

[Stevencc]

How's Cech kept that out!?

He did well to get over there but Salah helped him out with shite placement.

 

[SALTIRE]

Boaby! !!!!!!!!

 

[Stevencc]

Firmino needs to sort his celebrations out.

 

[snortingfrogs]

Great start from us.

 

[Stevencc]

It's started in the manner I expected it to, Liverpool flying in a big game and Arsenal wilting in a big game.

It's very early but even I didn't expect Arsenal to be this lacklustre.

 

[SALTIRE]

Never in doubt from Karius there.
