    Honestly, we could be 3-0 down now after a piss poor first half and yet we go in at 1-1. We have to be better in the second half

    Well about time we had a fluky own goal in our favour. Even if it had been cleared off the line it should have been a penalty.

    They have closed down TAA very well so very little service from his side for our front players. Diaz has drifted off the left so often that there is no pass available to that side. Gravenberch is hopeless and Thiago or McDonnell should come on. Hopefully Nunez will get a run out 2nd half.

    there's not really an excuse. I know we had the old lesvue cup semis but arsenal played Tuesday as well so they should not be sharper.

    I felt the back line was a state with no discernable line

    I felt the midfield was largely awol but while John's did more work he never once made a pass forward. macallister was just mostly out numbered there

    arsenal will come out all piss and vinegar here and will try to goad gomez and diaz.

    it's clear martinelli has konate on toast for his breakfast so we need to give help there.

    just pretend we are down to 10 and park two banks of 4 and hit it at 2 forwards.

    We usually are against Arsenal. Their hard press tends to fade and because we're still well in the game, we're placed to pick them off on the break.

    Gravenberch 100% needs to come off, I'd bring Robbo on and switch Gomez to RB, put Trent at RCM.

    Nunez needs to come on, probably for Gakpo. Move Diaz to right and put Nunez left, leave Jota central

    Wouldn't have bet on it being given as a pen. Was identical to what odegaard did against us earlier in season and wasn’t given as a pen

    Konate did nothing wrong there and it’s a free kick and a yellow

    Odengaard pulls player over. Then waves hands, then screams obscenity at Taylor. Nothing

    Odegaard seems to be another one of those that can do anything and never get booked

    Similar to the last league game.
    Arsenal start like a house on fire and then start to fade in the 2nd half.

    Really got to punish them unlike the home game.

    Do wonder if that’s why Klopp started Nunez on bench. Knew just had to hold on for 50-60 mins until arsenal fired a bit then unleash him
