Arne Slot, Florian Wirtz, Milos Kerkez and Richard Hughes all take a particular paddling in an eclectic Mailbox which covers Arsenal, West Ham and more too. Send your thoughts to theeditor@football365.com. An unflattering Liverpool comparison Liverpool are late-era Wenger Arsenal. The parallels are uncanny.
