Whilst watching Liverpool tear apart Manchester United’s dreams of entering the title race this season there remained a small voice in my head reminding me that Arsenal still need to make their own trip to Anfield. Whilst Manchester City have already faced their trip to Merseyside - and lost.
It was a game filled with controversy surrounding a ruled-out Man City goal that preluded a long kick from Alisson finding Mohamed Salah, who scored the only goal of the game. Although not the seven-goal drubbing dealt to Man Utd, even in what is perceived as a disappointing Liverpool season they are capable of sending any opposition packing with their tails between their legs from Anfield.
The win on Sunday was a promise to City that the Reds will certainly be at their fighting best when Arsenal arrive on Sunday, 9 April. However, the Gunners will be watching with intrigue at the clash in the week before that fixture.
