Today at 2:45 p.m. ET, Arsenal and Hull go head-to-head in Barclays Premier League action live from Emirates Stadium in England. The game can be live streamed here.
Hull coach Steve Bruce believes that today's opponents Arsenal have a great chance of winning the Barclays Premier League.
''Absolutely they can win the league,'' Bruce told ESPN. ''We're a third of the way through so why can't they? They'll be like anybody else, hoping their big players stay fit, but when you look at their squad they're a match for anybody. The problem with Arsenal is how do you set up against them? They're fluid in their movement and their interplay. They interchange positions...where does Jack Wilshere play? Where does Mesut Ozil play?"
Bruce also spoke about Aaron Ramsey and how he has helped the team thus far this season. Arsenal coach Arsene Wenger spoke about bringing him aboard and how the Wales international has stepped up.
''At the time I had no doubt. I always felt he had a good attitude, good basic qualities and will come out of that bad patch in a strong way,'' Wenger said via ESPN. ''Don't get me wrong, I didn't predict he would score as many goals as that but I was always confident he would make a good career. When you are a midfielder you want to defend well, you want to attack well and you want to give assists and score goals. That is how good you can be."
Arsenal has played well in the back and captain Thomas Vermaelen has rarely gotten a chance to start thanks to the successful play of Laurent Koscielny and Per Mertesacker.
''It's tough to leave Vermaelen out because of his quality, his attitude and his influence at the club,'' Wenger told ESPN. ''It's a difficult decision to make because he is a top-class player. He certainly suffers but he handles it with great dignity and great professionalism."
James Chester has recovered from a hamstring injury and should start for the visitors.
