Even when Rice slips he recovers and is still clean in possession. He was also the "1" in the "1v4". The guy is a cheat code.

What a waste Marinelli!
LMFAO, Trent😬
Kavanaugh doing his work for Anfield rn
This has to be the most neutral-friendly game this year. Nothing but action. No defense, only attack.
I can think of at least twice when Sky had to interrupt a replay because live action had overtaken them.
The crowd is so quiet right now.
Saka's new hair colour is confusing me.
How are we looking? I've been trapped in an underground restaurant with no signal
Uncomfortable.
Wasteful in front.
Them being efficient.

Trossard on for Martinelli, please Arteta. I beg of you.
I have seen the tsimikas clip. All I can say is that's terribly unfortunate. Yellow card to Jurgen Klopp for injuring someone /j
Worth noting that it started because Saka completely won a battle of strength against Tsimikas. In a normal duel you'd expect the fullback to win a battle of strength against a tricky winger.

Silence that Anfield Crowd
If Liverpool loses they're going to blame it not not being given a handball call. But, you can hardly come up with a more clear "ball to hand" moment.
Saka vs Konate cage match
Almost any other team goes up by a goal at Liverpool and they'd just drop into a low block. Arsenal is one of the few that's going to keep attacking.
Sigh. Need to finish those
Saka my man 😁
This match is open. If Martinelli wakes up, and Havertz find a cause we can win this. Zinchenko needs to relax with the inverted role and allow Rice to develop the play. Big Gabi has been man of the match on both sides.

Looking any better?
Looking worse
Trent failed to score a 1v4
Wow, so much movement playing it out of the back that for a moment Raya was the 4th deepest player.
Is it just me or is Odegaard stiff on the ball
Tomi being out and having to play Zini is going to cost us.
prayers that it won't cost us today
Oof, that Martinelli to Gabriel Jesus attempt looked so good. And then 20s later it's hitting the side netting of Arsenal's goal. This is going to be a very busy game.

They'll call us lucky
Raya?
how we looking lads?
Considering all things, good. We have created some good chances, while being able to limit theirs.
Unfortunately for us they have been clinical and we have been wasteful.
mostly OK. Zinchenko roaster by Salah for their goal. Gabriel masterful on set piece for our goal. Ode still doesn't want to use his right foot. Rice still immense in midfield.
I wonder if they considered starting Kiwior. Zinchenko is useful if Arsenal is chasing the game, but he's going to keep getting destroyed by Salah.
I feel good about this game. Without Salah Liverpool just look lost. We just need to focus for 45 mins and be sharper/more clinical in the final third.
Edit: Konate has been solid as well.
