So, Arsenal can't defend, Suarez isn't a bad left-back and Wilshire is the best English player alive. I'd take 1-0 now.
 
What the **** have Arsenal been playing at? It's one thing to be beaten by a better opposition, it's quite another to be architects of our own demise. With Santos on and Gibbs injured I'm ******** myself! Seriously, one of the most atrocious Arsenal displays I've seen in a long time. Thank God that Henderson has been the man the ball has fallen to for 2 decent chances!
 
Oh no, I just realised if Gibbs is out that means we're taking Santos to Munich. Haha he's going to get humiliated there!

Sometimes Arsenal just make me laugh :lol:
 
Good first half. Very pleased. Jack Wilshere world class though. Wonder how much arsenal will get for him when he goes. What with them being a selling club :)

Probably double his market value if Liverpool were to buy him ;)

In all seriousness though, he's one of the best footballers out there. It's amazing to think how young he is and that he's had a full season out.

It's a disgrace. How many goals does Sagna have to give away before he gets dropped??? He has been shocking of late. Liverpool deserve to be leading, and will now be level on points.

Any more proof needed that Wenger has no clue? Why no new players in the window?

Typical, why is it whenever I rant mid-game we score quickly straight away!!!

Great goal by Walcott.
 
At 2-0 I would still have taken a point. Looks like that'll be the best we can expect.
 
What the hell has happened to @BBCSPORT recently? The other day they mixed up who was playing in the chelsea v swansea game, then they said the final score for liverpool v oldham was 1-2 and now this:

BBC Sport ‏@BBCSport
GOAL: Game on at Arsenal, Johan Djourou latching onto the end of free-kick to make it #AFC 1-2 Liverpool

Who is typing this rubbish?!
 
Not too thrilled with that draw. Some absolutely calamitous play by Arsenal to gift the goals, with a few positives up the other end. Why we can't turn up and play to our potential in the first half I just don't understand!
 
Arsenal remind me of us towards the end of Roy Evans reign. You've got bags of talent going forward, but every time the opposition get the ball you look like you might concede.

Especially with Santos on! He looked the most tired player out there and he only played half the match. Somehow I constantly overestimate his ability, and I set that estimate very low
 
He's a donkey. You'll no doubt keep him for years and sell Wilshire (who was bloody brilliant).

Credit to Lucas too, for keeping Wilshere fairly quiet. He makes your side in my opinion.

I agree. He's such an important player for us. Does the dirty work and hardly ever gives it away. Hendo had a good game too after the first half an hour, but Carra was immense when I was expecting him to be exposed. Playing a deeper line helped him.
 
It has to be said that Walcott was bloody good too.
 
Fair result in the Arsenal v Liverpool match. Arsenal deserved nothing from the first half but turned up and showed they're the better side in the second half.

United huffed and puffed tonight and I doubt Fergie will be happy with that.

Chelsea implode.
 
Good result for Everton tonight. All around dropping points. We've moved to 41 Points..........so can stop looking down now, no relegation battle this year ;-) Onwards & upwards, please & thank you!
 
So, who is going down?

That is a difficult prediction.
