Arsenal Team News Leaked Early Ahead Of Liverpool Game

Ahead of their opening weekend Super Sunday clash with Liverpool, this afternoon, it appears Arsenal's team news has been leaked earlier than usual.

With another frustrating transfer window infuriating their fans, there will be a lot of interest in how Arsene Wenger assembles his injury ravaged team ahead of the visit of Jurgen Klopp's men. And, if one seemingly 'in the know' Gunners fan is to be believed, new boy Granit Xhaka is set to miss out on a starting berth, as is Jack Wilshere, with Francis Coquelin and Mohamed Elneny in line to face the Reds, today.

However, Pablo stopped short of revealing the entire line up:

With the likes of Laurent Koscielny, Gabriel, Per Mertesacker and Danny Welbeck all unavailable, Arsene Wenger is facing an injury pile up not dissimilar to the one Vince McMahon experienced last November when he lost John Cena, Randy Orton, Cesaro and then WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins to various injuries.
