Can Arsenal’s injury prone
defense sustain Liverpool promising attack minded squad?
The biggest clash of the
Gameweek 1 2016/17 season kicks off today between Liverpool and Arsenal at the
Emirates stadium. The concern for the Gunners are plentiful ahead of the big
clash.
Defensively they are
lacking numbers and quality, the attack is hindered by the same concerns as
last season and there is a midfield who has to deal with such a situation.
Apart from one good signing, Granit Xhaka from Borussia Mönchengladbach, they
could be able to do much to convince good players to sign for Arsenal, and in
they will be without their three of the main defenders, Laurent Koscielny,
Gabriel and Club captain Per Mertesacker, due to injuries during the
pre-season.
Inexperience Rob Holding
and Culam Chambers are the only two players who will fill the gap of the center
back position, so things are not going well for Arsenal ahead of their new
season.
Liverpool on the other
hand, signed Loris Karius from Mainz in summer with a view to making him No.1,
but a broken hand will delay his debut at least a month.
Liverpool change their game
under Jurgen Klopp over the last ten months with a more attack minded approach
but their main concern is the left back position which they need to deal with
it as soon as they can. Moreno had been poor in the last season, and many of
the goals Liverpool had conceded were created from that position.
