Liverpool news: Reds playing to win against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium
Lallana expects Liverpool to benefit from a full week of preparation between its and the Arsenal game Monday at the Emirates Stadium.
The Gunners have not been great so far, losing the season-opener 2-0 at home to West Ham United before scraping a win against Crystal Palace. “It was massively important for us”, Lallana told several media outlets while reflecting on the recent Anfield victory over Bournemouth.
‘We dug in and got the three points with another clean sheet – and we’re going to have to scrap for results this year’.
“We’ll go to Arsenal with a gameplan to keep this run going”.
Benteke, 24, who scored 13 Premier League goals last season but has previously netted 19 during a single season in the top flight, will be hoping to continue that momentum when we take on Arsenal next Monday.
Liverpool will have the weekend to see how their rivals get on in the Premier League before their game against Arsenal in front of the Sky Sports cameras on Monday Night Football. Hopefully we can go there and put on a good show.
The former Southampton star added: “He’s a big presence up there”.
Arsene Wenger’s side beat Liverpool by an emphatic 4-1 scoreline in last season’s corresponding fixture, but the England global is determined to ensure that the visitors do not experience a repeat of such a chastening defeat.
It was a real poacher’s finish. He brings team-mates into play.
Despite making it two wins in two games for Liverpool, the victory over AFC Bournemouth was not without disappointment.
“We know there’s room for improvement and we’re working hard in training to achieve that”.
“There’s no doubt we have a lot of ability in the squad and I think you’ll see our performances improve over the coming weeks”.
