Not looking intimidated. Good possession numbers, dangerous in attack, but I don't think there is any team that puts on so much pressure high up the field, so Arsenal players have given up possession in the Arsenal defensive third multiple times.
This match is open. If Martinelli wakes up, and Havertz find a cause we can win this. Zinchenko needs to relax with the inverted role and allow Rice to develop the play. Big Gabi has been man of the match on both sides.
Worth noting that it started because Saka completely won a battle of strength against Tsimikas. In a normal duel you'd expect the fullback to win a battle of strength against a tricky winger.
I feel good about this game. Without Salah Liverpool just look lost. We just need to focus for 45 mins and be sharper/more clinical in the final third.
Oof, that Martinelli to Gabriel Jesus attempt looked so good. And then 20s later it's hitting the side netting of Arsenal's goal. This is going to be a very busy game.
A sign of how action-filled this game has been: they finally showed a replay of the 4v1 attack, and it was probably 5 minutes after it happened. There hadn't been a break in play where they could show the whole thing.
mostly OK. Zinchenko roaster by Salah for their goal. Gabriel masterful on set piece for our goal. Ode still doesn't want to use his right foot. Rice still immense in midfield.
He did but he didn't do a good job. It is pretty obvious that Salah spams his left foot. Making him go right was the only option. Woeful defending no doubt.
@merc@coygsu more likely would had lost. We didn't dominate the second half at all.
Jesus tried but couldn't muscle in to create anything. It was a very physical game. At least our goalie looked solid.

Even when Rice slips he recovers and is still clean in possession. He was also the "1" in the "1v4". The guy is a cheat code.
Our player of the season so far, hands down.
Which is incredible considering we have players like Saka.
without Rice we'd be in mid table
What a waste Marinelli!
The crowd is so quiet right now.
LMFAO, Trent😬
Literally any of the other 4 Liverpool players would have scored
This game is calling for a last minute goal
This has to be the most neutral-friendly game this year. Nothing but action. No defense, only attack.
I can think of at least twice when Sky had to interrupt a replay because live action had overtaken them.
Silence that Anfield Crowd
Kavanaugh doing his work for Anfield rn
Sigh. Need to finish those
Tomi being out and having to play Zini is going to cost us.
prayers that it won't cost us today
Zini off?
YES!
Not really any options tho
How are we looking? I've been trapped in an underground restaurant with no signal
Uncomfortable.
Wasteful in front.
Them being efficient.
Standard match vs Liverpool, then. Sigh
I wouldn't say standard. We are the away team and are playing slightly better.

Far too many bookings on Arsenal players though.
Saka my man 😁
Martinelli WAKE UP! WAKE UP! WAKE UP!
ZINCHENKO WAKE UP
Dear lord, what is that side of the field doing?!?!?
If Liverpool loses they're going to blame it not not being given a handball call. But, you can hardly come up with a more clear "ball to hand" moment.
Saka's new hair colour is confusing me.

Rice is really settling in well to his role. Such an amazing player.
Honestly Rice is kinda saving our season so far. Wrap him in cotton wool when we can!
@Gingerrific @coygsu yeah, and to think there were people arguing that we should sign Caicedo over him.
I have seen the tsimikas clip. All I can say is that's terribly unfortunate. Yellow card to Jurgen Klopp for injuring someone /j
Worth noting that it started because Saka completely won a battle of strength against Tsimikas. In a normal duel you'd expect the fullback to win a battle of strength against a tricky winger.
Saka's a fullback duh /j
Almost any other team goes up by a goal at Liverpool and they'd just drop into a low block. Arsenal is one of the few that's going to keep attacking.
You fucking cunt
Jesus was right there
Trossard on for Martinelli, please Arteta. I beg of you.
Looking any better?
Trent failed to score a 1v4
Looking worse
Saka vs Konate cage match
I wonder if they considered starting Kiwior. Zinchenko is useful if Arsenal is chasing the game, but he's going to keep getting destroyed by Salah.
How do i get through 82 minutes of this
I feel good about this game. Without Salah Liverpool just look lost. We just need to focus for 45 mins and be sharper/more clinical in the final third.
Edit: Konate has been solid as well.
You made me think something had happened with Salah, but no, he's still out there and still terrorizing Zinchenko.
My bad!
I think this might be exactly the kind of game ESR would do well in. I hope he gets some playing time.
Stakes too high
Would it be a major risk vs. keeping Havertz on? He hasn't done a lot, and he's probably tiring.
Kai for who tho?
ESR. I think this game suits his style.
COME ON TROSSARD!
Tross about to do a madness?
Trent man, what a punchable face 😂
Saka looking to get a yellow to match his new hair.
We are moving the ball so well! This is just lovely football.
reckon szobo could play another 90?
Ha ha ha
Wow, so much movement playing it out of the back that for a moment Raya was the 4th deepest player.
Fuck yes!!!!!!
Oof, that Martinelli to Gabriel Jesus attempt looked so good. And then 20s later it's hitting the side netting of Arsenal's goal. This is going to be a very busy game.
Please be good Zinny today please
So far he's looked a bit shaky when he needed to defend. But, as usual, in midfield he's very important.
well ...
Yeah...
A sign of how action-filled this game has been: they finally showed a replay of the 4v1 attack, and it was probably 5 minutes after it happened. There hadn't been a break in play where they could show the whole thing.
Is it just me or is Odegaard stiff on the ball
I like the ref doing the "slip" motion in his explanation. :)
They'll call us lucky
Is Liverpool's press a little less enthusiastic? Could it be that they're finally tiring?
They'll bring on firmino from the desert
Saka just indirectly tackled Klopp!!
Let them cook
Raya?
Y'all have fun
PGMOL looking at what shirt Arteta is wearing to count this goal off
how we looking lads?
Considering all things, good. We have created some good chances, while being able to limit theirs.
Unfortunately for us they have been clinical and we have been wasteful.
Going to need more from Kai today
He started fairly well, and had almost intercepted that back pass early in the game but has been quiet since.
And just got a yellow as I'm typing this. LOL. Oh well.
mostly OK. Zinchenko roaster by Salah for their goal. Gabriel masterful on set piece for our goal. Ode still doesn't want to use his right foot. Rice still immense in midfield.
Typical arsenal. Dominant until they got one shot on target.
sounds about right. xG also ahead on fotmob so shrug lol
😬😬😬😬😬
Was it saveable at the near post?
Don't think so, it was a rocket
Salah's goal, no
That was picture perfect from Salah
Ziny didn't even close down on him
He did but he didn't do a good job. It is pretty obvious that Salah spams his left foot. Making him go right was the only option. Woeful defending no doubt.
Big Gabi even slammed his hands on the ground - he knew it was preventable
Knew that was a goal the second it was one v one
And that's what makes Liverpool so dangerous.
Oh my, Kai. You slick little devil. That was close.
Eddie helping in their build up
Yellow card yeah totally fair
Whoa, what a game.
My palms are sweaty, and my heart is racing. Been awhile since I was this nervous watching a game.
A disappointing 1-1, we could have won
Could have easily lost too.
@merc @coygsu more likely would had lost. We didn't dominate the second half at all.
Jesus tried but couldn't muscle in to create anything. It was a very physical game. At least our goalie looked solid.
Could have lost too
True, but we were the better side until TAA chance
Eddie!!!
I'd love to turn off the commentary. But maybe it's just me.
Nice cutback into empty space
No foul on Ø?
Konate has plot armour
Only 5 minutes added? I guess it makes sense. No time wasting, ball has rarely gone out of play, etc.
