Arsenal 2-2 Liverpool: Fans’ Views

We asked for your opinion after Sunday’s Premier League match between Arsenal and Liverpool.

Here are some of your comments:

Arsenal fans

Bruno: I think we did well considering what was at stake, following Manchester City and not having a fully fit team. Two seasons ago we would have lost this and we had a bad record against top six teams. Mikel Arteta has built a strong platform and stability that allows us to compete with good teams like Liverpool.

Andy: I was impressed to see that the absence of key players didn’t stop Arsenal’s path. We played some good football and it was a great game to watch. Referee Anthony Taylor did well and kept the pace going, which seems unusual after the last few weeks. The home crowd was excellent.

George: Arsenal fought well with a depleted team. Martinelli was responsible for the second goal and he should have been taken off earlier. He seems afraid of facing big defenders like Ibrahima Konate and is overall light as a feather.

John: If you want to win the Premier League and are leading 2-1 at home against a very good Liverpool team, find a way to win the game! Once again, Arsenal seemed to be running out of ideas! Achilles heel.

Liverpool fans

Tommy: Liverpool should be very happy with a point away against a tough opponent. There are a lot of positives to take away, and many substitutions are impactful. Momentum is a useful tool in a season and this match will only help the confidence continue to grow.

Alison: We were lucky to get a draw. Gabriel’s departure was a blessing for us. Our defenders must look at themselves. Virgil van Dijk is not immune to criticism: he should stop walking around like he is on vacation. Ibrahima Konate is our pillar in defense.

Barry: I think it’s a wasted opportunity but overall a point at Arsenal could be crucial in our season. Konaté was exceptional in defense and we showed resilience until the end. I think Mikel Arteta will be happier than Arne Slot on this occasion, which says a lot about our lost chances, but it’s one step closer to the title.

Mike: Overall I’m disappointed as we had way too many out of form players, never really had control of the game and showed no urgency to win after equalizing. And this despite all of Arsenal’s injury problems! Anyway, we got away with one there.
