From the source

If last season's visit to Anfield taught Arsenal anything, it was the need for a killer in the final third to break the game open.

Fail to do so and they are vulnerable to the sort of magic that bamboozled them in August of last year, even if the man who scored that brilliant free-kick winner, Dominik Szoboszlai, is a doubt for Liverpool on Sunday.

And if this game is indeed one that will be decided by what Mikel Arteta terms the "moments players," then it could scarcely have come at a worse time for the Arsenal manager.
