Arsenal defender Sead Kolasinac admits Arsenal face a daunting prospect as they prepare to face Liverpool’s ‘fab four’ in Friday’s heavyweight Premier League encounter.
The summer signing from Schalke could only look on in horror from the relative safety of the substitutes’ bench earlier this season when Jurgen Klopp’s rampant side coasted to a 4-0 win over the Gunners at Anfield.
Arsenal are far from the only side to have suffered at the hands of Mohamed Salah, Philippe Coutinho, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane this term and Kolasinac acknowledges they are almost unstoppable if they are allowed to build up a head of steam.
‘Firstly they made a really good transfer in getting Mohamed Salah, he told Arsenal.com. ‘He’s integrated quickly and has scored a lot of goals and given some assists too.
‘When you look at the four they have in their attack and the players on the bench they are all great quality. They all have a lot of pace.
‘You cannot to give them any space, you know if someone is faster than you can’t give them space.
‘If their front players are able to utilise their pace it will be difficult to catch them, before they get the ball we need to be tight to them.’
