#1 Arsenal’s defensive woes still persistent

As if having to play against Liverpool’s in-form front three is not enough, Arsenal fans would definitely be downbeat when they take a look at their defence. The Gunners have not lost in their last 13-games in all competitions, but that does not cover up for the club’s defensive woes.

Inasmuch as Unai Emery’s side has been scoring goals for fun, the team has equally been leaking goals at the back. In fact, Arsenal has conceded four goals in their last three Premier League games and this is definitely not a good record going into a game against a free-scoring side like Liverpool.

The lack of quality and options at the back has been one of Emery’s biggest challenges since taking the Arsenal job. The fact that the Gunners manager opted to play Granit Xhaka at left-back during last week’s game against Crystal Palace typifies how dire the club’s defensive problems are.

Such a porous defence will delight Liverpool and, should that front three of Salah, Mane and Firmino have a good day, Arsenal will be in for a long afternoon against the Reds.
