Great link up play around the box with the headers, shame wouldn't just sit down for Coutinho to get his shot away.
 
Fair play to the Gooners they've played well, we haven't final ball has been terrible. We just need to chalk this one off and look to win the next game.

Similar game to their 2-0 win at Anfield. That one was a bit of a write off on our part as well. Final ball has been poor, but our passing also hasn't been good enough and we haven't pressed well enough (not in packs like we did vs Utd).
 
GREAT SAVE! - Arsenal 2-0 Liverpool
Some headed 'tiki-taka' sees Liverpool work their way through the Arsenal defence as Luis Suarez and Steven Gerrard nod it to Philippe Coutinho, but he is shut down by the onrushing Simon Mignolet. Fine save from the Belgian.


Glad we're paying these "reporters" for the BBC.

No wonder we're not winning if Mignolet is playing in goal for them as well <doh>
 
I think with better wide players we might have made a better game of this, because at least when the midfield doesn't fire, you can rely on someone like Johnson to create something. 3-5-2 only really works when you have good wingbacks.
