Mikel Arteta's Gunners caused uproar back in February when they were accused of over-celebrating their 3-1 Premier League victory over Liverpool but goalkeeper David Raya claims supporters can expect similar scenes on Sunday
David Raya insists Arsenal are ready to rattle the celebration police again if they beat Liverpool - just as they did last season.
The formidable Gunners No.1 sees no reason why his side should keep a lid on their emotions if they are to reign supreme against their fellow title rivals, who in his view, have reached new heights under Arne Slot in light of Jurgen Klopp's shock departure.
Raya said ahead of today's unmissable Emirates showdown: "Every win in the Premier League is important and I think we should celebrate every win the same.
"Of course, when we played them in the second half of last season, it was a massive three points for us and obviously that emotion for everybody to win against Liverpool is important and is also incredible. If we win on Sunday, it's going to be the same emotions and same celebrations.
"They're a top team. They've got a new manager and I think they've increased the level. They are very dangerous, they are going to come here for three points and we have to be ready for that."
Martin Odegaard had Jamie Carragher spitting feathers when the Arsenal captain was pictured borrowing a club photographer's camera in the aftermath of February's gutsy 3-1 triumph over the Reds.
Fellow pundit Gary Neville also labelled the Gunners' wild post-match celebrations as "immature" after Mikel Arteta's title-chasing side had closed the gap to just two points at the summit.
This time around, Arsenal are four points adrift of Slot's early season pace-setters but crucially, they are without the suspended William Saliba and injured skipper Odegaard, Bukayo Saka, Jurrien Timber and Riccardo Calafiori are potentially, all fitness doubts.
Raya continued: "Everyone knows how important Saliba is for us but we have got top players who can play in that position who will come into the game, be ready to challenge and to help us win the game."
The Spanish shot-stopper also declared Arsenal do not have time to feel sorry for themselves following a third red card in eight top-flight matches in last weekend's 2-0 defeat at Bournemouth.
Instead, the ex-Brentford goalkeeper states the Gunners must improve their lack of discipline, adding: "We need to learn from our mistakes.
"Of course, we are not trying to get red cards, Declan [Rice] and Leo's [Trossard] were a little bit silly but Saliba was just trying to do the right thing and in my opinion, it was a yellow.
"But each red card changed the contest completely in all three matches. It's hard enough to win a game in the Premier League with 11 players, imagine it with 10 players in three games this season! We just have to move forward, now is not the time to think about it. It happened and that's it."
The 29-year-old is also adamant Arsenal cannot continue dropping sloppy points if they are to go one better this season, concluding: "Every game is a must-win, if you want to win things, you have to win every game.
"There are a lot of top teams in the Premier League now, not just Manchester City, Liverpool and us. Anybody can win the league."
Post-Liverpool, the Gunners face a gruelling run of four straight away fixtures in the space of just 11 days when they travel to Preston, Newcastle, Inter Milan and Chelsea - so they will be desperate to make home advantage count.
