With Can clearly not up to replacing Henderson, any chance we'll see a change in formation tonight, perhaps to accommodate Stewart?

You beat me to it Spud. Stewart has to be well in the reckoning for a start mate.

Our midfield is not the biggest problem.

Who Klopp selects tonight in the back four will be key. If our defence once again leaves us in a pickle then our attack will have to make sure that we score more goals than Arsenal to win the match.

Emre Can has got good energy which will be an asset against a team like Arsenal.

Energy is fine . but he doesn't know how to play
He is not clever with his passing he just reminds
Me of a kid playing football on a concrete football pitch
Just running with the ball an there is no plan in his head.

For me he's one of the problems with verstatility.

Hes never been trained to master one position amd now he has having to scramble to learn one.

Lb, cb, cdm, cm and cam for us. Maybe even rb on occasion.

What always makes me laugj is managers use these players here and claim its because there great in any position but you wouldn't move any of your top players. you would bring a kid in.

Milner and can are alrigut players hence why they have never really held down a starting berth. Have high wages though so if there's gap in the team they tend to play first.

Totally agree on there being major issues with defence too. The thought of Sanchez against Lucas is terrifying!
Time to give Maris and Gomez a go? Or should we bring Klavan back? I'm torn. Heart says Gomez, head says Klavan.

I seen Emre Can dribble through 2-3 players. I seen him pick out a pin point long ball. I seen him play a lovely through ball for players to run onto. I seen him tackle and break up moves. I seen him smash one in top corner from the edge of the box. He will run for you all day. He rarely picks up injuries or needs resting.

This season it hasn't worked for him. His team mates are not making the runs for him. It's all too congested in the centre of the park. It's all about coaching, tactics and confidence.
Emre has the skills simple as that.

Klopp will put the exact same team out tonight bar maybe Klavan in for Lucas, we just don't have the squad to handle injurys. On a lighter note i was reading the sports headlines as i was about to have my breakfast this morning it said " Liverpool are going to spend big in the summer" i nearly choked on my boiled egg with laughter. It's great to have a bit of humour to start the day.

Klopp is stubborn, and I don't see too many changes for this game, only he has to rest Lucas unless Lovren is fit, I see Klavan coming in, as someone said, Sanchez V Lucas is a mistake about to happen .

Personally, against Arsenal I would play Can and Stewart holding. Coutinho behind Origi with Mane on the right and Gini on the left. Look to hit them on the break with the pace and power of Origi, Gini and Mane. Firmino and Lallana are not playing well lately even in the big games.

Why should they continue to get chance after chance? Stewart and Origi will give 100% no matter who they face. I also think playing a proper holding midfielder and a proper striker may improve help stop our rot. Having 10 outfield players free styling all over the pitch is only good when you're playing with confidence; which we obviously are not!

I think Klopp will go virtually unchanged though and we'll draw 2-2 against a dire Arsenal side we should be smashing all the way back to London.

Fans propose, Klopp disposes! Unchanged team!
