First league game in three weeks, first game where most of the first team will play in two and a half weeks, first game of any kind for 12 days
Wenger appears to have used this time to try and scramble himself onto more solid footing
Win on Saturday tea time and the shellshocked Wenger of 15 days ago is forgotten, and the robust, defiant Wenger who believes in his own infallibility returns.
Can't see us winning. To do that we'd have to turn up which is something we seldom do against the top sides.
2-2.
0-3
this is the part of the season where wenger tries to save his own skin, liverpool might be a bit punch drunk after monday night.
I can see us nicking this 2-1.
If we lose, i think we can start making the argument that Wenger has maybe even lost the ability to get the results needed to get the board what they desire.
Scoreless or 1-1
4-3.
Leaving aside the most obvious outcome, that being the ref doing something stupid to gift the match to one team or the other, neither of these teams has a defence so it could be high scoring. 3-2, a coin toss as to who gets the win. Liverpool are one of the few teams that can pull off stupider shit defensively than us, maybe, maybe that will swing it our way.
They are awful defensively but very decent going forward and very good in the big games. We are not great in any area and are awful in the big games. I'll be amazed if we get anything out of this game. I think we'll lose 3-1.
Henderson out for us, and apparently Ozil out for you lot.
Henderson will be a very big miss.
Hopefully Lovren will be back. Anything is better than Lucas at the back, I dread to think what someone like Walcott or Sanchez would do to him.
Walcott would run past/round him with ease. Of course he'd then run the ball straight out for a goal kick. Or a throw in. On the other hand Sanchez vs Lucas is appealing, that scenario might see us nick a point in a high scoring draw. Lovren plays instead of Lucas and it's 4-1 PoolQuote:
