Well, theres seem of that and some things they have worked on that have not come off yet.

Eventually Ekitike will drag cbs out and wirtz will pop up and score. We just been gravenberch and macallister to find them

We have 3 really good cms for 2 spots there. Szoboszlai has to play.

We have to get the balance and things will improve.
right now i would put more money on Wirtz playing a 1-2 with Ekitike or Gakpo to get thru on goal than the 2 CM's but it is early days for the combo

I hope he can get his first goal.contribution soon but theres plenty of gsmes after the international bullshit.

Play this one and then we just hope we get a full squad back and we go for the long run of games.
 
Give wirtz time.

He's running hard. He's just not got the space or time to settle yet. He will get there.

The player who is undroppable now is Szoboszlai. He has really raised his game to compete. Great reaction to buys.

I think there is clearly a quality player there, just isn't quite clicking atm, but it will before too long. He'll be a superstar
 
Wirtz plays quick one touch football, that requires others to be on the same wavelength. It'll come
 
CHRIS SUTTON NAS PREDICTED 1: 2 LOSS FOR LIVERPOOL.
My worry with Liverpool is exactly what Arne Slot talked about in pre-season. They're too defensively vulnerable.

They've already conceded four goals. Ibrahima Konate looks shot to pieces and has been all over the place in the last two games. He's been a great player in the past for Liverpool but right now he looks like a triallist.

If you're a Liverpool fan I guess the good thing is your side are still getting results. But if you want to win league titles you've got to be watertight and strong at the back, and I'm not so sure Liverpool are.

Liverpool got bullied by Newcastle. There's no reason why Arsenal can't bully them too. I've just got a sneaky feeling that Arsenal, bolstered by new signing Eberechi Eze, will exploit them.

Sutton's prediction: 1-2

Orlando's prediction: There will be a few goals in this one. 3-2

AI's prediction: 2-2

JONES KNOWS BEST HAS PREDICTED A DRAW.
Ask yourself this: would Arne Slot and Mikel Arteta take a draw right now? The answer is yes, isn't it? Categorically.

That makes the draw a huge runner from a betting point of view.

It's very unusual to have a fixture played before Gameweek four involving two title rivals. Looking at the past trends when looking at this type of fixture played early on in the season, draws are very common.

The last five fixtures in the Premier League before Gameweek four to be played between teams that finished that season in the top three all ended in stalemates - the most recent of which was Arsenal's 2-2 with Manchester City last season.

The draw here is the bet at 23/10 with Sky Bet. It's the bet of the weekend.

SCORE PREDICTION: 1-1 | JONES KNOWS' BEST BET: Back the draw (23/10 with Sky Bet)
 
Looks like Sobz is RB again. Seems an odd one. Why not start Bradley then replace him second half with Gomez. Also Leoni not on the bench, injured?

They cant be sure to get 60 out of him and 60nout of macca.

This way they can sub macca for bradly on 60mins.

I personally perfer that to messing around.

Best players on the park.
 
First time we get to see what most would've colander to be our first choice midfield.

Not gonna lie, I think this may be another game where we carry Wirtz. Arsenal are a good pressing side. Its all about surviving their initial press and set pieces.

Square pegs, round holes. Didn't want to drop one of Zobo, AMC or Gravenberch
