The actual footy is back on! (v Arsenal)

[SummerOnions]

So, feels weird but the season is about to begin without it really feeling like it ended.

Is Trent fit yet? Who starts in midfield? Would be funny to wallop them 4-0.

Alisson
Neco Gomez Virg Robbo
Fabinho
Wijnaldum Keita
Salah Firmino Mane

Would like Jones to start but don't see it happening. Thoughts?

 

[MomoWASright]

I can’t disagree with that team. It’s fucking Arsenal. 23-0 win for us.

 

[keniget]

Is TAA injured?

I’m wary of this - they’ve beaten us, City and Chelsea recently.

Hungry team.
Lots of youngsters with a good veteran mix.
They will surprise this year imo ... Can see them in top 4.

Did PEA sign a new contract?

Did you see the game? We were half arsed and could easily have won had it not been two uncharacteristic mistakes from out most consistent players.

Not yet.

 

[Dreambeliever]

Would be good to win this. I’m having withdrawal symptoms from the Henderson shuffle.

We can’t take them likely.

 

[Bradley]

Strongest team. Set down a marker, we aren't fucking around again this season.

Trent has an "undisclosed" injury?... hope its not the same undisclosed injury Clyne allegedly had

 

[MomoWASright]

It’s the rona.

 

[Modo]

Klopp just said that players who hasn't participated in training won't be involved. Trent is a doubt.
Also he isn't ruling out any more transfers (not his exact words)

 

[SummerOnions]

Don't see why he'd risk Trent. If he's not played in either friendly, I can't see him starting here

 

[Hansern]

 

[MomoWASright]

Feature will probably mean coming off the bench. Give him enough minutes to help get up to speed but not enough so we can withdraw him from the England squad.

 

[Brizzle]

I think I’d rather see Hoever at RB than Williams to defend against Auba. Looking forward to this though - they’ve only had one pre season game and doesn’t look like a lot of the squad took part.

Isn't that the game were they put away their 2 chances and we squandered about half a dozen. They only had something like 30% of the possession at home. Most Arse fans would admit they were lucky that day

He ruled out Messi

 

[Modo]

He ruled out Messi

well obviously

Lightly.

Sorry.

 

[mark1975]

Let's hope Gomez starts playing like we know he can.

 

[gkmacca]

We're about two weeks ahead of them in terms of training, so if that doesn't show in the game there will need to be questions asked.

 

[Brizzle]

They played a back 5 in their pre season game last week, with Xhaka & El Nenny (!!!) in CM. Hopefully they’ll do the same today.

 

[Modo]

I have a feeling that Arteta is looking to bore us to death. They have speedy players up front. They'll just try and hit us on the counter.
We need to get a goal early in the game.

 

[Fabio]

We're going to lose

Don't think we're going to be massively arsed for this game

 

[MomoWASright]

We’re going to absolutely twat them.

 

[jon545660]

 

[Halmeister]

Hmm strange no Origi. I would've started Keita.

 

[Halmeister]

Grujic!?

 

[Halmeister]

Where's Matip? Sorry for the triple post.
