Seeing Liverpool losing and bottom of the Premier League puts a smile on my face, but I hate it when Arsenal win, because all their fans turn big headed when they do! "Oh we're gunna dominate everyone and win the league" when all they've done really, is beat a weak, mediocre Liverpool side!

Suarez is a diving cheating twat by the way!

... also, again ... apologies for being sooooo inactive on this forum of late!

Liverpool will play a good, short passing and pressing game. They can play good football. However they are super light up front. Even lighter than us. Suarez won't get you a ton of goals. He's more of a support striker.

I don't know where their goals will come from. Added to that, their squad is paper thin. Their bench was probably the best they could put out and it was pathetic. Compare it to ours (Oscar, Moses/Marin, Sturridge, Luiz/Cahill, Azpilicueta, Meireles, Hilario) and you feel a tiny bit sorry for those scum. Get an injury or two and they are screwed. They could always recall Carroll but an injury to their midfield or defence and they'd be struggling.

Arsenal seem solid. Giroud however seems he's a safe bet to be the worst signing of the season. Appears really average. Cazorla seems like what Mata was before being burnt out/overplayed/tired. Top 4 will be mighty competitive and us just staying in the top 4 will be pretty difficult let alone a title challenge.

I do however feel we have a better squad than the others. It's only our defence/defensive midfield area that's worrying. I think if we switched to 4-3-3 it would go a long way to improving those areas.

Have to say, Arsenal's defence looked more solid this season than in previous terms. 3 straight clean sheets so far in the league reinforces that.

The commentators were talking about their Defensive coach having a big part in their Solidness. I don't know why we don't get some top class defensive coaches or ex Top class defenders to teach our back 4 how to defend better.

Also anyone impressed with Joe Allen? He seems a class player. Reminds me of Oscar a bit.

I cannot contemplate the reasoning behind preferring Anders Lindegaard over David De Gea, who this season has been fantastic bar the one mistake against Fulham. From what I've heard, there has been no sign of an injury to the young Spaniard. Wayne Rooney is injured, so Robin Van Persie is the centre of a front trio alongside Danny Welbeck and Valencia.

I'll give you the fact that Joe Allen seems a class player but hes no Oscar !! :D
