Lol I’ll take it!! Merry Christmas Gunners 🙌🏼
Arteta chose Zinchenko over Kiwior. But, if he’d had either Timber or Tomiyasu I suspect one of them would have started. Zinchenko was useful in midfield in this game, but he was such a liability in defense, especially against Salah. Liverpool were targeting him all game.
It seems kinda mad that they’d put Zinchenko on Salah but the fact that we only had that one bad moment it speaks to the amazing job that Rice, Saliba, and Gabriel did to deal with all the other crises on that side and when Mo moved inside.
It was a fair enough result. The stats were very even and we were lucky not to have paid the price for being caught on the break. Top at Christmas is nice. Merry Christmas everyone!!
I miss Kieran Tierney.
@coygsu @Astrealix I miss tomi
Same but I understand why we chose to move on from him. Wish we had Jurrien Timber available though.
I’ll certainly take a draw. How was the game?
It’s a well deserved draw for both sides. Either sidw could have stepped up and secured a victory but it was a close match, one that I feel like we should be proud of.
We took the game to them early on and we really didn’t take out foot off the gas, so much as they found their rhythm as the game went on.
Martinelli, Zinchenko and Havertz could have played better. Rice, Saliba and Big Gabby were absolutely rock solid.
It was Anfield, we played well overall and fans should be happy with how well we played, considering our history here lol.
I wanted a statement victory. Wanted to crush them like Brighton.
But they managed to cancel out our buildup with some pitch black magic and Kavanaugh allowing them license to push and shove. Thankful for Rice and Jesus(more involved in buildup than Ø) as always.
Maybe Reiss could have done better in place of Tross.
my man, it’s liverpool, what do you mean crush them LMFAO be real
Like Crystal Palace at the Etihad? What happens in the 90 minutes is decided in the 90 minutes.
a draw? Liverpool haven’t lost by more than one since April to City away.
Martinelli was so indecisive this game, it was really frustrating. The Trossard sub was the right move and it could’ve even come sooner for me. Happy with the result overall though, this weekend could’ve been an absolute nightmare for us if things fell differently.
I do wish we could just finish out dinner. So many really clear chances that just didn’t get put away, although Liverpool were almost as bad in that regard so I can’t feel too hard done by.
Holy crap!
