Bournmouth away Saturday 1st Feb 3pm

[Paul12]

Grav will be pressed heavily. We'll need tokeep the ball moving quickly.

[The_weatherman]

No way Gakpo doesn't start.

Thinking being that the other three are more direct, maybe they've been working on something during week as Cody played PSV.

[Doc_Piptorious]

Our right flank vs their left flank is going to be where a lot of damage gets done one way or the other imo.



Salah/TAA vs Kluivert (or Seyemo or Ouattara depending on who is doing the ingame interchanging )/Kerkez.



Saw this earlier.

Very good visual breakdown of how they press in every single game.

Hopefully our off ball movement won’t be as static as the dots in that animation. No wonder Bournemouth look good if that’s the level of opposition they’ve been facing

Clearly Ruben Peeters’ approach to fitness is a real positive realization, we heard about this and we’re normally crippled at this time of the season

[The_weatherman]

I think heard somewhere that there is lesser intensity in the training sessions now, seems like it's really paying off.

Ya, he’s from the Raymond Verheyun (spelling) school of periodisation. Keeping players fresh is the approach and that involves lessening training intensity. Jose Mourinho was a big advocate of his ways and he was commonly referred to as “the egg” by Liverpool Twitter due to his criticism of Klopp’s/Kornmayer’s methods

[The_weatherman]

Ah, remember that guy, he was quite critical. Actually today, with the insane workload on players, surely this is the way. Just look at Ange and Spurs, he demands intense training sessions and they are falling apart.

[DerKrampus]

Getting a bit nervous about this one now.

100%. A huge game in the title race, not just for the 3 points at a difficult place to go but also about the potential impact on Arsenal playing the next day

On the plus side we do have the best away record in the league this season and are the form away team over the last six PL games as well.

I agree with all that, but with the results bournemouth have got this season, it wouldn't be seen as a disater if the result was not positive for us.

Go for the win, accept the draw, disappointed if we lose.

There will be bigger games before the season ends

Me too. Can't watch it as I have something else that clashes, and that always makes it worse, waiting for the sofascore notifications.

Fully fit squad and Fede is the odd man out
