Arsenal face off against Liverpool on Sunday in yet another big test of their possible Premier League title credentials this season. The Gunners currently sit top of the table with seven wins from their opening eight games, but in the Reds, they face a side that knows what it takes to win the league in recent years.
They haven't had an ideal start this term, though, sitting ninth with just two wins from their first seven games of the season - having played one less due to a rescheduled fixture against Chelsea. Opposition manager Jurgen Klopp heaped praise on the work done by Mikel Arteta before the game, saying: "All my respect, wow! Really good job from Mikel.
"When you need time, nobody wants to give you it. I have to say, a lot of respect. A lot of talent...Martinelli, I was excited about him early. Odegaard, I spoke to him at 15 in Norway with his dad. Saka...ooof. And Gabriel Jesus, Mikel could see how good he could be not in a Man City shirt. Thomas Partey, everyone saw how good he was at Atletico Madrid. Lots of quality. A young, exciting team doing really well. Now we go there, and we don't think about [past results]."
