Revenge will be on Arsenal players’ minds when they face Liverpool in the FA Cup on Sunday.
Reds ripped gunners apart at Anfield last Saturday by scoring 4 goals in just first 18 minutes. More importantly, Arsenal were the league leaders then.
The problem for the gunners is that with the Champions league fixture coming up next week, Wenger may have to rest some top players but will he do that against Liverpool who are in top class form at the moment.
One player that surely deserves to be ousted from the starting XI is Giroud.
In all honesty, against Liverpool and Manchester United, it was as if the French star was not playing for Arsenal but helping the opponents in defense.
Can be forgiven for the dismantling that Liverpool did but against Devils, Giroud had more than a few chances to earn Arsenal crucial three points. However, he is the worst finishers around and proved it there.
Flamini is set to return from his suspension and he has been badly missed because Arteta has been horrific lately.
On the other hand, Cazorla is out and in his place, Podolski is expected to start.
Here is Arsenal’s probable XI vs Liverpool.

Sometime i jus wish all our strikers get injured!
A false striker can work in arsenal chamber/gnabry
Peter we ar togather false 9 is ok more than that our mads strkers i wsh to c podosky & rosicky starts.
Olivier Giroud is the worst Arsenal striker i have ever seen. Very lazy, poor finishing, doesn’t pose any threat to defenders. I think is about time he sit on the bence longer enable him get serious when called upon. He isn’t in anyway complementing the efforts of his colleagues on the field of play. Wenger on the other hand is too late in making substitutes.
At times, honestly I wish Giroud a long term injury to give room for people’s voice Poldoski. Every players have their OFF pitch time but Poldo’s own is Giroud ON pitch time!
It is pride on the side of Wenger not to listen to advise. With due recognition to the fact that Giroud may be working hard to score goals, he has taken Arsenal back embarrassingly. The most embarrassing thing again is that Wenger has been insisting on him, just to deceive people that Arsenal has a leading Striker even when Podolski could have done better. Even before Murinho called Arsen Wenger a failure specialist, that is the right word to use for Wenger now because he intentionally refuses to listen to advises. For more than eight years, he is still saying the same thing. Let’s assume that Wolcot and Ramsey are back, arsenal still need a natural striker. The result of misusing these boys like Wolcot and Ramsey is this injuries that have sidelined them because Arsen Wenger is over exposing them to perform magic of scoring goals when he is still insisting that Giroud is a striker. It may be late for Wenger now because the opportunity was there in January to buy a natural intelligent and purposeful striker for Arsenal, he messed it up thinking that Ramsey is going to be back. Has Ramsey originally been considerd for a leading striker in Arsenal?
Wenger kills me!
I miss Ramsey
I miss Walcott
When things got taugh ey just gave themselves the burden 2 carry the team on their shoulders and score. Moreover we got a thundershot Podolski who’s carear is about 2 vanish whilist sitting on the bench. Why does Wenger hate Podolski
Im very much disgusted whenever i watch giroud missing open chances and the boss insist that giroud is good on aerial balls and holding up play, he is very slagish when it come to pulling the trigger? Listen kenyan fans are dying of heart attack due to poor striking selection. My question to whoever is concerned, what is the work of a striker? 2nd, what crime has podolsky committed to deserve the bench?
wenger favours his fellow french man, Giroud. Some fans have gone on to criticise Ozil when the mere fact is that Ozil’s passes cant be assists when Giroud wastes them by not scoring. Save kenyan fans who kill each other bcoz of Arsene stubborness
The problem of arsenal is wenger, this man has gone gaga, playing cards very close to chase. We can win something when he resigns
