Riccardo Calafiori debut, Martinelli in, Tommy Setford chance – Dream Arsenal XI vs Liverpool

Arsenal will play their final game of the American pre-season tour as they travel to Pennsylvania to face Liverpool at the Lincoln Financial Field, home of the Philadelphia Eagles. Another American Football field repurposed for a soccer match, as it indeed coined across the pond, and therefore raising questions of the surface.

Mikel Arteta will get his first chance of sizing up new Reds head coach Arne Slot. Although no new arrivals have been brought in, Slot has the benefit of having a raft of key first-team players available to him.

Into midfield and Thomas Partey needs to do more to convince supporters that he can offer Arsenal another solid season in a Gunners shirt. Links to an exit remain slim and the likelihood is another central midfielder could be coming in.

Ethan Nwaneri has arguably been the star of the pre-season and has gained plenty of notoriety from his performances. Alongside Martin Odegaard, he has the perfect partner and hopefully, and this could continue against an even tougher opponent.

Up top, Gabriel Jesus scored against Manchester United and with Kai Havertz having only just returned it makes sense for him to continue in the role. Reiss Nelson like Nwaneri has shone this summer despite persistent links of an exit while Gabriel Martinelli’s return was welcomed with a goal and fans will hope he can rediscover his best form in the forthcoming season.
