Liverpool - Arsenal: Post Match Thread

[JohnDoe]

Arsenal are the MOST OVERRATED team in premership history

Confident we'll finish above them in the table.

If both Skrtel and Agger were gone this summer, I wouldn't be upset.

We need to rebuild our defence.

I seem to find myself coming to the defence of Skrtel all the time. I don't mean to but he has been superb this season. Think that his performances has got the plaudits he deserves.

Wouldn't be bothered if Agger left.

That was probably one of our best away performances this season. On another day we would have had 3 or 4.

[danperkins]

He does a job that will never stand out as such. Just keeps things ticking over. That said, he'd have had a couple of tap ins had our strikers actually passed when he was better placed.

IMO he has been awful for Liverpool FC. I'd be surprised if he is here next season.

The problem with Skrtel is that he will never be the reliable, error free CB we need. Top teams need consistency from their defence, and he's way too erratic.

[DannyMan2006]

yes we created chances, but we were not getting the numbers and options around the box like we need to unlock their tight defence.
only seen allen contribute something close to supporting the attack once. coutinho was wasteful, but maybe arsenal tried their best to crowd him.

when we lost possession there was none of the high tempo pressing that wins us games. this is were we have lost the initiative.

We did close down, but high tempo at a big Emirates pitch isn't easy. Arsenal were at home, they were better in possession and had fans behind them. Plus we played midweek, with minimum changes to personnel hard to play fast tempo.

He certainly can be rash but surely no denying he has been one of the best CB's in the league this season.

[Gibbo]

Lads can be proud of that performance. Sturridge just had one of those days.

Howard ****ing Webb.

Don't worry about defending Skrtel - the vast majority of objective Liverpool fans can see that he's having an excellent season. Haters are always going to hate.

Definitely mate

[Fredo]

We've got only the league to worry about now so I don't really care if we can go on and win it.

[Gibbo]

Brad Jones was awesome too.

[danperkins]

We missed so many chances... The inability to score has cost us.

[Cormack74]

Wasn't especially fussed about the game beforehand but having been the more threatening team for most of it I'm disappointed our chance of doing the double has gone.
