No way of knowing. You can only beat what's put in front of you after all which is what we did. We will play more defensive teams so lets hope we can break them down this season.

Not for the faint hearted that game! I hope the ridiculous Moreno's mistakes don't get swept under the carpet because of the result. Carragher made a point in commentary at 4 v 1 that Arsenal always had a chance with Liverpool's LB on the pitch...#SCATHING!

If Mane can improve on that, which should be the natural course, then we've found our next Suarez! His goal reminded me so much of Suarez, running at defenders, twisting and turning them into knots and the finish...SUBLIME!

yes I agree I don't think we'd of scored the 2 early quick fire goals (and therefore not the 4), and gone 3-1 up if arsenal had 2 better central defenders infront of cech. it would have probably been like you say 3-2, 3-1, or 2-2 if arsenal had been more resilient.

our attack still looks good, against an attack minded hungry arsenal team, and we had openings in the first half notably with the wijnaldum shot etc. so we could have scored before the out of jail free kick. trying to pick the bones out of it can be difficult to make many conclusions from we should look at the stats probably, 16 shots 7 on target for us, 9 shots 5 on target for the gunners. off target 3 each

Carra is not Moreno's biggest fan and if pundits and fans can see that Moreno is our highest weakness than rival teams will start attacking that weak link.

Do you ever stop bleating?

3 points away to Arsenal and all you can do is cry.

Brilliant result.

Both teams have horrendous defences.

We won and that's the important thing.
Be happy and let the experts pick through it later.

Lets not forget that we have injured CB's too and if they were fit it might have been different. So many if's and but's but the only thing that matters is that we won.
