Toughen up Arsene

So a new season has begun and the more things change, the more they stay the same. Arsenal dominated possession in their 0-0 draw at Newcastle United.
The same flaws that meant the Gunners ended up with no trophies last season were visible all over again. The Gunners were aesthetically pleasing, and looked good passing the ball around for long spells but lacked a cutting edge.
Sadly for Arsenal fans it is unlikely to change, as improving performance is yet again not the focus of Arsene Wenger. He has been sidetracked into a petty schoolyard debate about “who started it” between Gervinho and Joey Barton.
Liverpool have not tasted victory at the Emirates before this although Andy Carroll is upbeat about his side's chances tonight.

Liverpool are currently engaged in a battle for European spots with City and Spurs while Arsenal are living their dreams of overturning a seven point lead for Manchester United to lift the Premier League title. Nevertheless, both teams are set to face off in an all important match at the Emirates tonight.
Speaking of the Emirates, Liverpool have never won a game there ever since Arsenal shifted to their new stadium. However, one Liverpool player who has had the experience of winning at the Emirates is confident that his side will be able to break their duck later tonight.
