Hector Bellerin to be assessed ahead of Arsenal vs Liverpool https://www.skysports.com/football/...-to-be-assessed-ahead-of-arsenal-vs-liverpool
Paul Merson says Arsenal's defence will let them down in race for top four https://www.skysports.com/football/...fence-will-let-them-down-in-race-for-top-four
that's a bullshit excuse. we came runners up in the league with a ****e defence and goalie. as well as crap subs.
but other clubs had issues then. if arsenal score enough goals sure they can make it up v the bottom 14 clubs. the expectation is city will be on or about 90 points. we want to be close Chelsea look decent right now. spurs look in trouble slightly
only city as their billions spent hadn't taken full effect then. utd,chelsea and arsenal was still top 4. spurs not sure or care. every club has issues every season, if we can make top 4 with the ****est defence and goalie you will ever see( and most clubs wouldn't want any of our players!) arsenal certainly have no excuse for not getting top 4.
Do you think Utd are out of it? Haven't got a snowball's of the title of course, but they could still challenge for 4th - if they get their act together. They'd have to ditch Mourinho though.
Not really but it's just fishing. tbh if they get goals flowing (by not stopping once they get a lead) then they should have more than enough for the "other 14 teams" Utd have the players, yes the title is gone but they can play catch up. ... 5th last year at January i'd have said Chelsea for top 4 and 2nd maybe while spurs looked adrift for top 4. by the end we ran out of steam and focused on cl so much we were looking down at Chelsea not spurs. who knows which of the top 4 might implode. hopefully not us but it will only.take 3 or 4 bad games to turn a title challenge into a dogfight for 4th in this league. the top 6 are hockeying the rest most of the time so the top 6 mini league could be vital.
Arsenal solution to left full situation, mustafi and their goalkeeper situation will be interesting. We just have to decide which team we need to get 3 points and then head immediately for belgrade. I STILL think we will make changes in the two games
Players have had a whole week off. We play Saturday, Tuesday and Sunday and then more internationals. I don't think there is any need to make changes other than tactical.
I'd go something similar....1-2 maybe. They (Arsenal) may score on Saturday with a couple of good strikers on the pitch, but we will ask serious questions of their backline
shouldn't be 0-0 anyway. I just keep looking at that left.back issue they have. it's up to us to play well. do that and I think chances will come.
