Draw PL: Arsenal 0 - 0 Burnley | Sunday 23rd January | KO: 14:00 GMT |

Really bad performance last night. We need a strong reaction. We don't just need to beat this lot, we need to do it convincingly. A statement win, if you like.

But problem is even with Partey back, we're in a worse situation than we were a week ago. We are light in midfield (an understatement). Our only recognized CM is 22 year old from the Belgian league playing his first season in the league.

Let's not even talk about Arteta. Don't want his templars attacking me or sending me threats.

I think he'll go with the same Lineup today in Sunday.
This will be a twofer: Relegate Sean Dyche and get the three points.

Like I said, I reckon Mikel will stick with the same starting XI that played the pool game. It will be interesting to see how. Lokonga and ødegaard themselves physically in midfield against those club bouncers.

Predicted Lineup

 

[2Smokeyy]

Don’t think Liverpool have the budgets for big signings. Think Klopp will have to find the next left field guy or try a kid. That’s why he likes Martinelli, would be perfect for his system, but we got him first for nothing.

Depends on if they cash out on Salah or Mane. They’ll easily have enough to replace either one of them if they sell them.

 

[yorch44]

We invested in Lakonga. Otherwise, why sign him if AMN is a better choice? I think they are both average regardless.

Because Arteta decided he is not a process man

They young you know how much we putting on thier shoulders? saka was done in 60 minutes Ødegaard tried to create ESR and Martinelli too its just one of those days when we can't finish it remind me of earlier this season they need help.

So because they're young they shouldn't want to win? Age shouldn't be an excuse anymore. They know it's Burnley, a defensive team. They know 3 points would go a long way towards finishing top 4 and yet showed no urgency. If I saw the effort and we ended up not getting the result then fine but the overall effort was poor today.

 

[Diesel]

Complete failure. Its simple. Burnley at home. So naturally we give them something to fight for because cuckfc have shown up right on queue.

 

[2Smokeyy]

Do you think Liverpool will have the money to spend big though? Someone like Saka or Raphinha level will be the one they will go for and then they will try to develop them as they see great potential in them. Even someone like Saka and Raphinha level would cost 50m in today's market.

It’s hard to determine who they go for as by the time Salah and Mane are done, there might be other players available at that time.

They may go for a player like Jota who breaks through in the PL rather than a Saka.

I didn't mean we shouldn't win but i mean they need some help because the moment they hit bad patch we struggling

 

[A_G]

Someone on twitter said Burnley are the most dangerous team in the league to play right now because they're the most desperate for points

 

[yorch44]

Just sack him and put airpod guy until the season is over. Our best match was without Arteta toxicity around. We are going nowhere with him.

Man, you have "arteta" in your nickname. You just have an agenda to defend the clueless manager we have.

Do you want to piss me off? Can you all stop. I'm trying to support the team stop putting it on me supporting the manager.

I'm patient guy but enough I'm sick of it

 

[squizo]

Ref did us dirty. Only 2 yellows for million fouls.. still not enough.

 

[Anders Harbo]

We had but just can't finish. That difference between us and someone with top quality CF these games happen its frustrating as hell but it's clear the team will struggles without finishers and yes its on mikel and edu head to not acting quickly this month,

I believe it’s Edu’s responsibility to buy players.

 

[Batman]

I think maybe the easiest way to sum this club up under Arteta is that the 2 strikers on the pitch for us at the end of the match are at a level where they should be thanking whatever deity they believe in that they can play for Arsenal and instead they're turning down contracts. Would that be the case if they had any belief in this manager? Doubtful.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

I believe it’s Edu’s responsibility to buy players.

Its both responsible but more on edu because he can't bring them

 

[FinnGooner]

This is what I’d call a classic Arteta-ball performance. Toothless, boring and predictable. But of course, stats-wise we were just decent enough for Arteta being able to sell this result to the owners and some deluded fans as an unlucky accident. Probably 10+ more performances like this still coming up this season

 

[Anders Harbo]

Bet Auba scores the chance Laca missed

He would have been at the Afcon playing right now, if he hadn’t contracted Covid. Come on

 

[Riou]

This was the game for Wilshere, imo.

 

[Haphazard]

Saka and Nelli are leaving within 2 seasons btw, too good for Mr 8th place.

 

[A_G]

He would have been at the Afcon playing right now, if he hadn’t contracted Covid. Come on

He wasn’t sent home because of Covid

 

[bojed]

Ole didn't get the sack for this.
