'You don't become' - Aaron Ramsdale sends Liverpool message to Arsenal team-mates

Arsenal goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale says they must be 'on their game' to beat Liverpool on Sunday and insists you 'don't become a bad team overnight'.

The Reds have endured a difficult start to the 2022/23 campaign and have only collected 10 points from a possible 21 so far. They've suffered defeat against Manchester United, as well as a poor display and 4-1 loss against Napoli in the Champions League.

Arsenal, however, will not be taking Liverpool 's form for granted as it will take a strong performance to take three points from Jurgen Klopp 's side, insists Ramsdale.

"You don't stay top of the league for as long as they have and you don't become a bad team overnight," he told Sky Sports. "We've got to be on our game like we have been throughout the start of the season.

"Hopefully we can get the Emirates rocking again and have another good weekend."

Arsenal have had a much more positive start to the campaign with just one defeat so far and seven wins. Mikel Arteta's side are currently the team tussling with current champions Manchester City at the Premier League summit.

Midweek, the Gunners comfortably won their Europa League group stage clash against FK Bodø/Glimt. Liverpool also put in a much improved display against Rangers in their Champions League match and Klopp will hope his side can take the momentum into Sunday's meeting at the Emirates.

"It is important we are a bit more aligned and let’s go from here," the Liverpool boss told reporters on Friday. "In an extremely high level, the boys delivered from here. It is difficult to get that all the time, but we expect it from us first and foremost to be 100% honest, so let’s go from here."
