Arne Slot will have seen it too and I expect he had a little giggle, knowing they’ve got them next


Liverpool of all teams against that horrendous high line. It's going to be a massacre.


Yeah if in their current form they play a high line against Liverpool there’s going to have to be a new annual Memorial Day to commemorate the resulting barbarity.

Apparently, City fans booed them at the end. I've seen our fans criticised as reactionary or entitled, but if they really did that, they take the crown. Were it not for an enormous influx of cash with 115 possibly dodgy manoeuvres, then they would have yo-yo-ed between the Prem and the Championship without any silverware of note.
Good old Arsenal, we're proud to say that name

They did indeed

Changed it over to their game as ours had finished earlier.

Just wanted to see reaction. Booed indeed

I wonder how many of those fans in their crowd today used to go watch them in the third tier a few short decades ago? I’d put money on it being no more than double figures out of that crowd

I'm pretty sure the marks on his head during the interview came from rubbing his head repeatedly during the game.

Another impressive win from Liverpool, getting a bit ominous now.

Arne Slot whatever his name is, funny he's dropped his 4-2-3-1 already and gone to Klopps aggressive 4-3-3.

Don't blame him really and I suppose credit that he recognised not to re-invent the wheel, but it literally is and looks like a Klopp team.

.....which is bad for us in the league them being 9 points clear.
