Arsenal vs Liverpool (PL) 2-2

Raya;
Partey, White, Gabriel, Timber;
Jorginho, Rice, Merino;
Saka, Havertz, Martinelli

3 points.

If we put Partey at RB its over before the game starts.

I think we’ll go:

Raya
White Timber Gabriel Kiwior
Partey Rice Merino
Saka Havertz Martinelli

We could be facing Dias and Salah with only one starter playing their regular position in our back four and missing two of our most important attacking/creative players.

It’s not that we can’t beat them. Their midfield isn’t anything special imo. I think any concern is more to do with how we handle all the absences. We have no idea how a back four of (for example) Partey-White-Gabriel-Kiwior would fare with Merino and Rice ahead of them, so it makes it difficult to project our performance.

Just do not want to see Partry or Rice in defence. Kiwior is more than able to start.

We will find out in 15 minutes

Saka and Timber are with the squad

Maybe we are just trying to confuse Slot and his tactics

Whoever is on the pitch, let’s fucking go.

Timber and Saka back is huge.

Can easily slot Rice as CB and move White to RB and Partey as DM

Decent bench too.

Just missing Odegaard and Calafiori.

Most likely Partey at right back but I wouldn’t mind if it is Rice at CB

Just hope Saka and Timber are actually ready, and don’t come into this half-cooked.

If Timber in particular is at 70% then Salah will give him huge problems

Partey up against Diaz is appropriate for Halloween

Partey RB is a worry.

These are the games your backup RB comes in but due to Tomiasyu being an absolute joke of a footballer we don’t have that luxury and have to play a fucking midfielder who isn’t great there

I like that when the team news came up on my phone from the official Arsenal app it just said “two players return”

Trolling over Saka and Timber to the last.

Personally think Partey is good enough at RB and can do a job for a one off game. Feeling a bit more eased now seeing that lineup.
