Van Dijk is imperious. Klopp should invite people to take a walk around him.

Love that moment there, where Pepe tries to trick his way past Matip, VVD comes in to ease him off it, and then Milner steams into the middle of it all and charges out with the ball.

If we could play Arsenal at Anfield every week I think we'd win the league by about 22 points.

Turtyturd · 24-08-2019 06:10PM

Wonder how Kevin Nolan feels today?

Osmosis Jones · 24-08-2019 06:12PM

We just can't keep a clean sheet can we

Harry Palmr · 24-08-2019 06:12PM

Well that's annoying.

martyos121 · 24-08-2019 06:12PM

That’s disappointing. Henderson has been poor today, but he was just unlucky that time with the ball falling straight back to Torreira.

~Rebel~ · 24-08-2019 06:12PM

bah.

eigrod · 24-08-2019 06:13PM

Pity that.

ERG89 · 24-08-2019 06:13PM

Poor "tackle" from Henderson there.

Hendo's been one of the standout best players for me today... been the one constantly quickly getting the ball into those open spaces - everything has gone through him, all our quick switches, and pushing up, tightening in on them, keeping the pressure on them constantly. Think he's been excellent.

Turtyturd · 24-08-2019 06:14PM

That’s Torreira best player in the league at the minute.

D'Agger · 24-08-2019 06:14PM

Think that's on Trent tbh, you're 3-0 up, just lash it down the line, give away a throw, who cares but chucking it into the centre of the pitch effectively allowed that chance to come about

Don’t agree myself, he’s given the ball away very cheaply a few times and that takes away any credit he’s built up from his general level of play. It was his touch that let Pepe through on goal against Adrian in the first half as well.

I’m generally a fan of the way he plays, and he’s done a lot right today, but he’s made some schoolboy errors all the same.

So which one of you is wrong?

Osmosis Jones · 24-08-2019 06:16PM

Every league game this season we've gotten complacent and conceded a sloppy goal, yet to score last in any of them.

He looks to have run out of gas the last 10 minutes to be honest

Agent Coulson · 24-08-2019 06:17PM

Great ball by Fab to Salah

Klopp should hook him then.
Hopefully we can win the second half as we haven't won any in the league & it means a lot to some.

BorneTobyWilde · 24-08-2019 06:20PM

Tyler and Neville trying and failing to paint this as something other than a dominating performance from Liverpool.
We concede a goal, oh the humanity

Osmosis Jones · 24-08-2019 06:20PM

I know he's only been on a few minutes but Lallana is such a non factor

Turtyturd · 24-08-2019 06:21PM

At least he’s not in the ‘number 6’.

They are so disappointed at this scoreline

Osmosis Jones · 24-08-2019 06:22PM

Great performance, easy win. Make no mistake this is not a bad Arsenal side, they're at worst the fourth best team in the league, we're just that much better.

eigrod · 24-08-2019 06:22PM

Comfortable win against a top side. Well in Jurgen.

Well, it's a discussion forum, so there probably isn't an objective right or wrong. Hendo's performance is built up on a thousand little things he's done, good and bad. So it just depends on your personal weighting of those little things.

For me, the overall workrate, constant pressure, and brilliant quick passing to always be probing at Arsenal's weak spots makes up for the few errors he made - largely made while putting himself in a position to be covering someone else anyway.

But Martyos has given greater weight than I do to those mistakes, lowering Hendo's overall performance for him.

Both feel like pretty subjective opinions, and both seem pretty valid to me.

Won both halves this time

D'Agger · 24-08-2019 06:23PM

Strong performance, delighted

Turtyturd · 24-08-2019 06:24PM

Not quite as enjoyable as some of our other easy annual wins over them at Anfield but utterly dominant. Would be great to play them every week.

Harry Palmr · 24-08-2019 06:24PM

When the lads are putting on the Ritz with the flicks and tricks, one or two just aren't quite up to the standard and Arsenal are good enough to cause problems with a sloppy pass.

That Arsenal attack is now a "didn't sign for Liverpool" collective. Pepe, Lacazette, Mihki, Aboomarang.
