Liverpool Player 'Leaks' Major Arsenal Team News in Blow to Arne Slot
One Liverpool star appeared to leak major team news ahead of the Reds' Premier League clash against Arsenal.
On Thursday night, Arne Slot's men will take on Premier League leaders Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium.
Liverpool are winless in two top flight matches, having been held at Anfield by Leeds United before drawing against Fulham at Craven Cottage.
Meanwhile, the Gunners are well on their way to the Premier League title as they hold a six-point lead over Manchester City.

With Alexander Isak already sidelined, Reds fans are praying that Ekitike could feature against the league leaders.
While we will not find out the truth until Thursday evening, Bradley, along with a couple of Liverpool staff, may have already dropped major hints.
The FPL Focal website gathers a list of professional players and staff at Premier League clubs who take part in the Fantasy Premier League.
It was spotted that Bradley, along with Reds staff Lee Nobes (head of rehab physiotherapy) and Neil Jones, have all removed Ekitike from their starting XI.
While it could be a pure coincidence, the timing of Ekitike's removal has worried Liverpool fans on social media ahead of the crucial clash.
What did Arne Slot say about Hugo Ekitike's injury?
When asked whether Ekitike could feature against Arsenal, Slot remained unsure.
He said: "Could be. Let’s wait and see how he does and the days after. It’s always going to be a thin line and a difficult balance. If a player is not available today, is he then available in four days?"
