I’m sorry for not posting Arsenal vs. Liverpool match report last week.Finally we got to win games after two consecutive losses before.
However,in Arsenal squad good news are always balanced by bad news.Arshavin,Almunia,Song,Gallas are out for this match.Eduardo is not available just yet but Carlos Vela is O.K after recovering from knee injury.
Tactical wise,defense is the main problem now with absence of Gallas.We should play more defensively and a draw is a more realistic target considering our injury problem right now.Employing 4-5-1 formation should do us more good than harm.
We just need to ensure that we can get at least a draw there and we can get a victory when we play them again at Emirates.

Porto have vowed they will not change their attacking style for Tuesday’s crunch clash with Arsenal. But, for Gunners they need only a goal and make sure not conceded any to proceed.
Arsenal are without key players Fabregas and Van Persie. By looking on the above concerns, it seems not a good idea to support Arsenal but the Gunners have won all the Champion League matches at Emirates stadium. I can see their home spirit and high motivation from London’s supporters. Arsenal will go… with a goal!
