Slow first half, gave the ball away far too much. A few changes the second half and the introduction of Traore turned the game.

One lad sneaked into the ground this afternoon and sat in the toilet for 3 hours and managed to watch the game. 😄
Racism will never get eradicated from the game, UEFA couldn't care less.

Is there a sporting reason he didn’t play much, or is it political?
In Germany Ozil has created quite some backlash for being friendly with ‘his president’, much more than Rory playing with Trump.

Hes flattered to deceive a bit at Arsenal and never really delivered in the big games, managed to negotiate a massive contract before Wengers time ended. Since the new clown (sorry manager) Emery has been in hes been marginalised completely. They tried to move him on in the summer but couldnt find any takers considering his ridiculous salary!
Whilst hes not the world beater he potentially could be he should certainly be a decent benefit to this Arsenal side if used properly
Trying to find something positive to say about the 2nd half performance but that wasted free kick and Lacazette getting booked for moaning sum it up. I guess aside from the issues with Emery and picking a balanced side is what to do with Ozil. Clearly out of favour and if they want to get rid who is prepared to pay that salary. Could be a massive white elephant until the contract runs down

Yep guilty of play acting, and I think Gendouzi dived for the free kick at the end too.
I call out Arsenal players when they do it but Liverpool fans on here see nothing wrong when their players do it. Blinkered beyond belief.
Emery will be very pleased with that, managed to give returning players a good run out , rested some first team ers and still got a win at the end.
Great for Pepes confidence to score a brace too.
Future will be bright I think under Emery we just need the spoilt brat fan base to keep their toys in the pram for a while longer. This was always going to be a 4-5 year project.
Think we need to talk about my jinxer fee

Sean is it that long a project due to the state Wenger left the team in?
Not too sure how many Emery has brought in. Think it's mainly Wengers team with a few new players.

Team personnel is different enough now but more importantly the manager has his own ideas. This will take time to get across. Took Klopp long enough to win something at Liverpool and remember he still hasn’t won any domestic trophy including the league in 4 years.
Is that because BR left Liverpool in such a state? No, it’s because Klopp is his own man and with his own ideas. Takes time for everything to come together.

Liverpool, Liverpool, Liverpool and we're not even playing tonight.
Same old, same old.
Same old, same old.
BR did leave them in a state though. There were 10th in the league, accumulating points at a rate similar to what got Mourinho the boot at Chelsea. Klopp got them back to 8th, but taking points at a rate that would have gotten 73 points in a full season (enough for fourth that year). Since then he has finished 4th, 4th, 2nd. That's improvement.
Last year you did improve slightly to be fair. With points at least, but it does seem Emerys approach is simply a case of hoping your better players basically bail you out. I can't picture a defined style. If you finish 5/6th again i think he's toast as he doesn't have the credit with the board Wenger did and the sport has changed.

I tried to at least talk about Arsenal too...............
