They really weren't balanced. Even if they weren't first choice, nearly all that Arsenal side are active members of their first team squad. Our side had 5 players that at best were on the fringes and lucky if they make the bench for a senior game. You then had 2/3 of our senior players that did play playing out of position too.

Gomez isn't exactly experienced. 6 months in the first team and is like 20. But yeah there was a mix of veteran players. just fringe squad players though
And still i reckon Ozils wage isnt far of theres...added together.
He's been part of our first team squad for 4(?) years now, I think we can class him as a first team player.

Fat Frank's honeymoon period is over.

injured for about half of it though. 40 odd appearances in those 4 years so I wouldn't call him first team exactly. he was for that stretch last season and is part of the first team squad now but not exactly experienced.
2 years ago you could have said that but he's been regularly involved in the first team squad, starting plenty of games for over 2 seasons now. He might not be a guaranteed first team starter but he's very much an active member of the first team squad.

Just saw the highlights from the Liverpool vs Arsenal game... The goals from Oxlade-Chamberlain, Willock and Origi were class, what a match.
It's going to be interesting to see how they can find a date for Liverpool to play their quarter final. The game is due to be played on either the 17th or 18th of December but we play the semi of the World Club Cup on the 18th and looking at our fixtures there's not a single free mid-week between now the 2nd week of January.
edit: Oh just seen some quotes from Klopp, he's saying the club won't play during our week off/winter break and if they can't find an alternative then we'll withdraw from the Cup.

Meh didn’t think we would win, surprised that somehow we scored 5 goals but also managed to ship 5 as well. Which wasn’t surprising at all in the slightest with how utterly pathetic our defence is at the moment.
Can we do that? I understand his point as players don't get enough time off as it is but surely the higher ups won't let us just say sorry not coming

Utd did it with the FA Cup so don't see why not?

Chelsea in the FA Cup - EVERY year. They'll draw someone garbage at home for the first 3 rounds, then get Millwall in the quarters, Sunderland in the semis and someone like Bournemouth in the final.
