    Flanno's tackle was a bit naughty but I am 99% sure he wasn't trying to go in and hurt anyone - just a young lad still who is learning so glad this wasn't branded around as it would diverted the fact he had a brilliant game

    New game in time for Easter for the kids

    Apparently Ozil only had 4 touches of the ball in his own half compared with Coutinho's 32

    Don't just pick on Ozil. Arsenal's first half attacking stats:

    Attempts on goal 0

    Off target 0

    On target 0

    I agree, and as we were 5-0 up at the time it hardly affected the result. That's not the point - if one of our players did that in front of Webb he'd send the whole team off and kick Hendo in his other knee to finish of Eto's job. Cut it out Flanno.

    Webb would also be waving his red card even if happened behind his back

    <laugh> there was a major #meltdown by one of the posters on the Arsenal board too

    This mental fragiliy is the cost of over 8 years without a trophy

    I thought that while watching the game.
    Astonishing, really. They've no right to call themselves supporters.
    Fair do's to those who stuck it to the end and cheered like they'd won the league after the pen went in.

    Yes, give them Kudos for that. Some of the ****e walked out the other Tuesday after the fourth one went in too, but most supported their team. Remember half time at Istanbul? Most teams don't deserve most of their fans. Again, I applaud the Gooners at Anfield yesterday. <applause>

    I know I'm late to the party but WOW. Simply WOW..

    What a performance - a true masterclass in the art of counter attacking football. This is how we need to play against the bigger clubs. Our attack is world class - SAS, Sterling and Coutinho. A few years ago, I was complaining how we always looked like a slow team with the likes of Maxi and Kuyt on the wings. But we're unbelievably quick now.

    But the whole team were faultless today. Well, we could have been a bit more clinical in front of goal but now I'm just nit picking!!

    I still have my concerns though, especially against the lesser teams where we need to be the aggressors.

    That first 20 minutes though.. Haven't seen attacking football like since we smashed Madrid 4-0 at home. Rodgers has done an amazing job so far, when it clicks we look a different class, Man City aside how often do you see teams put 4+ goals against Everton, Spurs and Arsenal, all of whom have good reputations for "good defences". I await every game with an eager anticipation, we need to bring the same intensity to every game and we'll finish top four.
