Crazy Tweet from the Fulham Owner.

Hanging his team out to dry

That playing out from the back is a load of bollox. More hassle then it’s worth.

HOW IS THAT A FREE OUT

The chances arsenal had tonight were all because they played out from the back and broke the Liverpool press.

They've probably given Liverpool more chances from doing it than they've created from themselves though.

They've scored one and conceded none from it tonight id say. To beat Liverpool you have to take risks.

Would you stop, nothing wrong with that

9 points from Leeds, Chelsea and Arsenal is pretty formidable from Liverpool.

This is it

everything was wrong with it, he should get fantasy football points for it, it was that bad.

Eeezzz for Le Champions.

Score line really flattered arsenal who were very poor and just gave up once they realised the ref wasn’t going to keep giving everything their way.

You mean in the 2nd minute when he didn't send off Mane?

Richard Hillman

Arsenal's tactics were basically pass the ball around the box, then hoof it long when you get in trouble.

It was like the latter of days of Martin O'Neill with Ireland, except Ireland used to be a bit further up the pitch.

Send him off for what?
You're soft in the head if you think that was a red card.

He barely touched him. Yellow at best.

Really, I watched it and his Palm barely brushed him. I’m not a pool fan, just calling it as I saw it.

Jota looks like he fits right in. Could be another very clever signing from Klopp.

For the first time in a long long time looking forward to the Mersyside derby - if we keep our starting team fit we could make it more diffult than its been in awhile.

It was a yellow and nothing else. Refs got it spot on.

So many chances and goals have been given up by teams doing over the last few months.

The odd goal scored doesnt even it out.

Agent Coulson

Nearly as good as the 3 points was Klopp calling out Keane for talking sh1te and showing he really isn't a great pundit and is only on Sky for shock value.

A top of the table Merseyside Derby. Just like the old days. Brilliant.
