so given its importance i thought this merited being started earlier than 10 minutes before the game
perhaps foolishly, I'm optimistic we can really give them a game tonight.
still i hate to break with a tradition so... 0-3 Salah hatter![]()

Would happily take a draw, which is what I think the outcome will be too.
1-1.
If the weather stays like this, I think it’ll be a goalless draw.
Might do a rain dance if the weather looks like improving.
If you don’t send this signature to ten people, you will become a Spurs fan.
Big match, deffo Xhaka red card territory
Expect a pel for Liverpool at some point
It's better to burn out, than to fade away.
Do we stick or twist? I’m really tempted to go full galaxy-brain here and try Martinelli or Smith Rowe up top (with the other on the left) - give Lacazette a rest and go for max running, pressing and pace on the counter. I doubt we’re going to dominate possession or be able to play through them with quick, intricate passing, and if we’re ever going to try something like this then a game that we’re expected to lose anyway might be the ideal time…
Merse is in the studio along with Carragher and Souness.
Merse just said it'd be a major melt-up if Citeh don't win the league.![]()
Arsenal: Ramsdale, Cedric, White, Gabriel, Tierney, Partey, Xhaka, Saka, Odegaard, Martinelli, Lacazette.
Subs: Leno, Smith Rowe, Holding, Pepe, Tavares, Sambi Lokonga, Elneny, Nketiah, Swanson.
Liverpool: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Van Dijk, Robertson, Henderson, Fabinho, Thiago, Jota, Mane, Diaz.
Subs: Kelleher, Konate, Keita, Firmino, Salah, Gomez, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Jones, Minamino.
----------
Salah on the bench. Which in theory would be good but Jota scores all the time against us.
Diaz against Cedric.
This doesn’t bode well.
