Really gutted we lost to City. Should have gotten something from the game. Poor officiating coupled with individual mistakes killed us.
We looked good vs City. We had them on the ropes before the Xhaka incidence.
Hopefully we bounce back from this.
This game vs Liverpool is the ideal game to that.
I expect massive rotation because Arteta knows Liverpool will rotate. I expect some fringe players to come in but don't see a way in @American_Gooner 's
boy Mari and Cedric.
In attack, Nketiah and Pepe should make lineup. In midfield I expect Sambi to take Partey's place.
In defense, White should retain his place. But Tavares and AMN will start in FB.
Prediction.
Arsenal 2-0 Liverpool
Liverpool since Klopp came have always had some disdain for this competition. So I see Klopp fielding a weak Liverpool side. Liverpool are still trying to chase city for the title and they're one of the favourite for the CL. So they might throw this. They have bigger fish to fry.
With their two best attackers going to the Afcon, anything short of winning this should be classed as failure.
