Arsenal vs Liverpool - The 2020 FA Community Shield

[SB]

So it’s only a matter of days away & with what we’ve seen in the 2 trial matches so far it’ll be interesting to see who starts here.

Injured players include
Hendo
TAA
Matip
Origi?
Shaq Are there others?

[Buzzo]

Is this an early submission for worst set up match thread of 2020/21?

Also, what’s the sketch with Trent not playing for us but selected for England?

that does my head in. The international football calendar will make the season nuts this year. Need to take a leaf out of fergies book and have a load of niggles for every international game.....

[danperkins]

What's up with Trent?

[Buzzo]

What's up with Trent?

Was reports of a 'minor injury' but intriguing that he is available for international when he wasn't for friendlies and didnt travel to Austria.

[red g]

What's up with Trent?

Not sure but I wish him well.

[Shaggy]

Not sure but I wish him well.

[Liverpool]

Aubameyang vs Neco should be interesting..

[greenturnip]

Arse will be as rusty as us. Hopefully.

[BigChief]

Quick Google of their friendly shows they won 4-1 against MK Dons with mainly their (Arse's) youth team. So not going full team like us. Hopefully they will be very rusty. Klopp will want this 'trophy'.

[Pablo]

They're not going to play their youth team against us though. It'll be their strongest possible team, even if they are rusty.

I’m taking one for the team & setting the bar as low as possible. at least it’s up though

Correct, they will be going all out with their first XI who have had almost zero minutes of preseason game time. Compared to our first XI who have all, barring Trent, got the cobwebs off hopefully. Specially defensively and in front of goal.

This is it!

It's been 30 years since we were here as League champions rather than FA Cup winners and we face a resurgent Arsenal, fresh off a record 14th FA Cup win.

Preseason has been a mixed affair but we have some rising stars in our ranks like Jones and Brewster, it would be great if we could give them a taste of Wembley, even if there isn't anyone to roar us on.
