Apparently not, as we play zonal, but yeah, I get your point.
If it was pure marking, konate or someone would be on Gabriel

This would be a miss as having both Tekkers and Gakpo's height at set pieces would be very useful defensively.
Tbf Gakpo only has the height. He’s about as useful in the air as someone who is 4’2.
it’s like he has been hypnotised to think he’s in jimmy krankies body
that’s a great reference for all the kids on the forum
I like this attitude, but please, don’t get spanked.

It's a fantastic attitude, but you just know there's gonna be 4 or 5 players who phone in a performance.
Prediction? Macca, Jones, gakpo, kerkez, Konate. Szob, gravy, wirtz (if fit) and frimmers to perform. Ali will just be ali. No clue what Virgil will turn up
I’m hoping this is the usual mind games…we’re fucked without the outlet and counter threat of Ekitike..
Fuck my Fantasy team, but I saw someone post last night that both Bradley and someone from our physio department had both sold Ekitike before the Arsenal game. Might not mean anything, but its not looking good.
Slot said he might train today. I'm guessing maybe a 30 min cameo off the bench, if anything.
Literally nobody has phoned in a performance in any game against a big side this season and I don’t see it happening vs Arsenal.
Will it be enough to get a result? Who knows but it won’t be for a lack of effort.
Yeah, the players were absolute monsters against Man City. What a performance!
He's not setting himself up for anything, he acknowledged they are a good team, but said it's too early to call it. He should speak with confidence, it's exactly the attitude we need more of, instead of the defeatist shite you seem equally quick to slate. Can't win really can he?
Manchester United too! Absolute domination from the Red Men!
The Arsenal home game is probably one of the few games were we have really stepped up. City away was terrible all around.
Amorim left with an undefeated record against us. That alone should be enough to see Slot sacked.
He's an absolute retard. I'm fully convinced he's a wind up now.
We never played them at Old Trafford under him either. So he took 4 points from us at Anfield.
I'd love Slot to throw a curveball* at them today with his starting lineup (assuming Eki unfit to start)
Rio LW
Frim RW
And 4 Midfielders with Wirtz as the deep 9.
We aren't going to dominate possession so at least give us a chance on the break without appearing ponderous. I literally can't think of anything else he can do formation-wise.
* no idea what the means other than a detour from the norm.

I said exactly this to my son earlier!
Yeah I think the only way we can win at the Emirates is if we play today...
The game is tomorrow 😉
Oh I believe if we're in the ascendancy the crowd will get anxious.
I just don't think we'll ever be in a position of control. In any facet of the game.
Wrong. Demonstrably wrong. Almost impressively wrong.
He's a mongy wind up
This is probably the most negative I've seen the forum before a game. What's good given that, a draw? A narrow defeat?
A draw would be utopia
