German tactician Jurgen Klopp has identified Arsenal's key players ahead of their clash with Liverpool in the Premier League on Sunday.
Liverpool are 11 points behind league leaders Arsenal who sit at the top of the top flight of English football.
Ahead of the clash, Klopp pointed out Gabriel Martinelli, Martin Odeegard, Thomas Partey, Granit Xhaka, and Gabriel Jesus as key players for the match.
He told a press conference on Friday: “They had a lot of talent over the last few years, Martinelli I was excited about very early on, and he’s become the player I expected.
“Martin Odegaard I spoke to when he was 15 years old, and the whole world wanted him before he chose Real Madrid. He’s become the player everyone expected, Saka from the first day he played he’s been incredible and if anyone knew how good Jesus could be as a number nine not in a Man City shirt then it was Mikel.
“He’s brought Xhaka back on track, everyone knew how Partey was when he was at Atletico, and now they’ve found a way how they want to defend. They played a different line-up on Thursday but still with lots of quality; it’s a young team, a very exciting team and doing very well, which is well-deserved.”
