Liverpool v Arsenal

So the much highly anticipated game between these two juggernauts of world football to come up next.

A good time to attempt a combined XI. It's a difficult one but here's mine.

Alisson
TAA, Gomez, VVD, Robertson
Henderson, Fabinho, Wijnaldum
Salah, Firmino, Mane

What's yours?

problem with combined XI's involving Liverpool is as a team they're greater than the sum of their parts.

on paper their midfield looks woeful compared to most of the other top 6, yet it controls games.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Liverpool have the second best midfield in the league player for player.

Fabinho, Henderson, Wijnaldum, Milner, Keita, Ox

Better than

Mctominay, Pogba, Fred, Pereira, Matic
Kante, Kovacic, Jorginho, RLC, Mount
Toreira or something, funny hair guy, don't even know who the others are
Dembelele, Alli, Eriksen, Sissoko, Winks, Skippy, Dire

I think being serious theres probably no neutral who would take a single arsenal player from their back 5.

I just couldn't see anyone being serious do that.

For our forward line I could see the usual debate. No Liverpool fan will pick any arsenal player over firmino. that'd be the biggest debate with a neutral i think.

I personally think no neutral on current form would leave out mane. Salah, they might think his goals and assists being only stellar last year not utterly astounding per year before isn't enough compared to whoever. I don't know.

I would assume aubameyang salah and manae would be the neutral pick, No liverpool fan would not put firmino right now.

Midfield is different. I don't think nuetrals would rate any Liverpool midfielder necessarily.
