What a waste Marinelli!

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Even when Rice slips he recovers and is still clean in possession. He was also the "1" in the "1v4". The guy is a cheat code.

This has to be the most neutral-friendly game this year. Nothing but action. No defense, only attack.

I can think of at least twice when Sky had to interrupt a replay because live action had overtaken them.

Literally any of the other 4 Liverpool players would have scored

The crowd is so quiet right now.

Kavanaugh doing his work for Anfield rn

This match is open. If Martinelli wakes up, and Havertz find a cause we can win this. Zinchenko needs to relax with the inverted role and allow Rice to develop the play. Big Gabi has been man of the match on both sides.

Trossard on for Martinelli, please Arteta. I beg of you.

Saka's new hair colour is confusing me.

How are we looking? I've been trapped in an underground restaurant with no signal

[–] SoupACabra@lemmy.wtf 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Uncomfortable.

Wasteful in front.

Them being efficient.

Not looking intimidated. Good possession numbers, dangerous in attack, but I don't think there is any team that puts on so much pressure high up the field, so Arsenal players have given up possession in the Arsenal defensive third multiple times.

Far too many bookings on Arsenal players though.

[–] SoupACabra@lemmy.wtf 3 points 1 year ago

Saka my man 😁

Silence that Anfield Crowd

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

If Liverpool loses they're going to blame it not not being given a handball call. But, you can hardly come up with a more clear "ball to hand" moment.

Looking worse

Trent failed to score a 1v4

Saka vs Konate cage match

[–] Astrealix@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I have seen the tsimikas clip. All I can say is that's terribly unfortunate. Yellow card to Jurgen Klopp for injuring someone /j

Sigh. Need to finish those

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

Almost any other team goes up by a goal at Liverpool and they'd just drop into a low block. Arsenal is one of the few that's going to keep attacking.

[–] ironeaglebird@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Tomi being out and having to play Zini is going to cost us.

[–] raumdeuter@arsenalfc.social 3 points 1 year ago

prayers that it won't cost us today

[–] Astrealix@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (3 children)
[–] raumdeuter@arsenalfc.social 3 points 1 year ago

mostly OK. Zinchenko roaster by Salah for their goal. Gabriel masterful on set piece for our goal. Ode still doesn't want to use his right foot. Rice still immense in midfield.

[–] Gingerrific@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Considering all things, good. We have created some good chances, while being able to limit theirs.

Unfortunately for us they have been clinical and we have been wasteful.

[–] raumdeuter@arsenalfc.social 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Going to need more from Kai today

Typical arsenal. Dominant until they got one shot on target.

Was it saveable at the near post?

[–] kaleid@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Don't think so, it was a rocket

[–] coygsu@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)
[–] SoupACabra@lemmy.wtf 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Ziny didn't even close down on him

[–] coygsu@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

He did but he didn't do a good job. It is pretty obvious that Salah spams his left foot. Making him go right was the only option. Woeful defending no doubt.

[–] raumdeuter@arsenalfc.social 2 points 1 year ago

Big Gabi even slammed his hands on the ground - he knew it was preventable

How do i get through 82 minutes of this

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Oof, that Martinelli to Gabriel Jesus attempt looked so good. And then 20s later it's hitting the side netting of Arsenal's goal. This is going to be a very busy game.

Saka just indirectly tackled Klopp!!
