ARSENAL V LIVERPOOL PREVIEW

                                            ARSENAL V LIVERPOOL PREVIEW

seems every game at the moment is a big game for LIVERPOOL, but games against ARSENAL are always massive. ARSENAL on the back of 2 defeats to title rivals really need a win to get them back on track, and when was the last time ARSENAL lost 3 in a row.
LIVERPOOL on the other hand are on their best run of form of the season unbeaten in 7 and only losing 1 goal in the process. with key players like TORRES, BENAYOUN, JOHNSON all missing during this great run it has made it all the more impressive. scoring goals has been a problem especially with TORRES missing, but where earlier in the season LIVERPOOL were losing a lot of goals they are now losing very few giving them confidence running through the team in recent weeks.


there will have to be a change to the side on wednesday with KYRIAGOS out after the sending off on saturday. other than that i wouldn't change much.
my team for ARSENAL game would be-

GOALKEEPER- REINA
RIGHT BACK- CARRAGHER
LEFT BACK- INSUA
CENTRE BACK- SKIRTEL
CENTRE BACK- AGGER
LEFT MIDFIELD- AURELIO
RIGHT MIDFIELD- MAXI
CENTRE MIDFIELD- LUCAS
CENTRE MIDFIELD- MASCHERANO
CENTRE MIDFIELD( ATTACKING ROLE)- GERRARD
CENTRE FORWARD- KUYT

 

that's my team, i would still keep CARRA at right back because i think he is doing a great job out there and can still organise the defence from there. i would bring SKIRTEL into the centre of defence as i think he was unlucky to miss out on saturday, i thought AGGER was immense on saturday so more of the same. might sound a bit strange this but if AURELIO is fit i would play him left midfield solely for the reason of protecting INSUA who i think can struggle against pacey wingers, and ARSENAL have a lot of pace ie. WALCOTT. MAXI out on the right is a very disciplined and clever player and i think could compliment CARRA well down the right, meaning i would be shifting KUYT into the centre, i think playing N'GOG in this game he could struggle and might just not be strong enough for this test whereas i think KUYT will give more of a goal threat and work the ARSENAL defence really hard.


KEY PLAYERS - ARSENAL- ARSHAVIN well he scores about every time he shoots against us 
LIVERPOOL- GERRARD not stating the obvious but i think he will be key to creating chances for us

PREDICTION
ARSENAL 0-1 LIVERPOOL
