Clyne: Liverpool defence will have work cut out trying to stop Arsenal ace Sanchez

Nathaniel Clyne is well aware just how difficult it will be to stop Alexis Sanchez this weekend.

Liverpool travel to North London to take on Arsenal on Monday night and visiting right-back Clyne is expecting a tough contest with Chilean international Sanchez who was a constant thorn in the Reds' side in last season's 4-1 loss at the Emirates.

"You look at all his movements, how he picks up the ball and receives it and how he takes on players and whether he comes inside or outside," Clyne told Sky Sports News HQ .

"He's a great player and he works hard so we're going to have to do a good job in stopping him."
