Arsenal prepare to face Liverpool on Sunday, February 4, 2024.

The Gunners are currently 3rd in the league table, while the Reds are leading it.

The January transfer window closed on February 1 as yesterday was the deadline day.

During the winter transfer window, the Gunners were linked with several names such as Ivan Toney, Victor Osimhen as well as Karim Benzema.

However, Mikel Arteta’s side didn’t sign any strikers and the Gunners boss was quizzed on the matter ahead of the Reds game.

“I think like this. I love my players. I think tomorrow we’re going to score goals and be top. They’re going to be top,” said Arteta.
