Pepe LeFrits yeah. I get it though - finishing is woeful across the board and the concern is that we've seen how this story ends a few times already this season. But none of them are proven goalscorers so hard to feel like they're underperforming.

Indeed, but it's still a far cry from some of our recent performances and finishing aside, it's a really impressive display of dominance and control against an outstanding team. I don't think anyone disputes that we need a striker.
Get these guys a shrink and a witch doctor
Our finishing must be one of the biggest jokes in football. Should have scored at least 2.
Qwiss I am really not and you think thats running the show? Ødegaard is his handprints over every key chance. Don Pacifico Fair
Coombs hard disagree. hard.
KingslandBarge I don't understand how you can have the take you have on Jorginho and not agree with me on this.
Pepe LeFrits What it actually looks like: if we had that gold plated centre forward, we'd be a wrecking ball through English football. If a prime Van Persie was lining up for us today we'd be 3–0 up
BBC just showing Bamford's goal today...bring him in!
Kai doing fine, he'll score. We look like a different team this time around and there's a few good reasons for it. Martinelli not losing the ball every 5 seconds is a good one, plus the hold up play from others is 2x better already
Qwiss Jorginho is running the show.
Really? Thought it could have been pretty much anyone playing there, he's done very little. Gets beat so easily as well, waddles around like a duck. Decent passing, but nothing mindblowing.
Coombs Put someone else in there and everything ahead falls apart. He's playing well, not dwelling on the ball too much, actually turning on the ball and playing it forward. The space Odegaard is getting is night and day compared to if we had Rice in there and Havertz left 8.
We should have scored same old story really that mistake by Liverpool at the back should have been punished you can't let them go. So many of our forwards hesitant taking extra touches that kill the opportunities.
Gunner89 what that xG looking like tho?
Meatwad
Arsenal 1.5 .10 Liverpool
Big Willie Burnwinter this was my favourite bit of the half. He was so adamant the moment he slipped. Fully braced to close his legs and check any bypass lol.
Burnwinter we'd be out of controlball good. I'd settle for a 2009 Adebayor at this point, though.
Qwiss The space Odegaard is getting is night and day compared to if we had Rice in there and Havertz left 8.
Well, it would be pretty unfair to move Havertz to left 8 to disprove my theory, which is that it's his CF play making Jorg (and others) look better.
100% aerial duels won 100% long ball accuracy 90% pass accuracy (37/41) 7/9 duels won (most on the pitch) 5 tackles (most on the pitch) 2 ball recoveries 1 shot on target
Deccers
Gunner89 i was being sarcastic about those 43 shots.
Jesus, Saka run at the goal and force them to take you down. Stop the 'stop and twirl' things. FFS
i'd be bricking it if a liverpool winger was bearing down on our goal like that and with us i expect failure.
