In-form Arsenal must beat Stoke to stay ahead of Liverpool

It’s really nice to be 2nd in the table.

But Liverpool are one point behind and Arsenal are three points below league-leaders Chelsea.

Will Chelsea slip-up at home to West Brom? Doubt it.

Will Liverpool fail to beat West Ham tomorrow afternoon at Anfield? Given that half of West Ham’s first team is injured, that looks unlikely.

Liverpool miss Coutinho but they still create a lot of chances and often score four goals.

Hector Bellerin may come back today. Bellerin is thee players: a winger, a midfielder and a right back. As you all know, he is vital to the way Arsenal play.

But he might be facing a big tricky Austrian dribbler who can score goals: Arnautovic.

We learned this week that Alex Iwobi has to call Ozil “boss”, ever since the German assisted his recent goal.

In today’s paper Amy Lawrence notes that Iwobi goes off to play for Nigeria with his best mate Iheanacho, the Man City striker that I rate very highly.

Iheanacho is the understudy to Aguero, who is now banned for four games.

I’m still disgusted by Aguero’s violent late foul on David Luiz last Sunday.

When the Argie’s studs rammed into the Brazilian’s leg, I shouted, Just because you’re losing!”

Reading that David Luiz is doubtful for the West Brom game at Stamford Bridge today, I’m livid.
