Liverpool Top The League & Teams Stumble Along The Way

Let's be honest, it's only Neville that bangs on about UTD.

@jaycawley9246 I mistakenly watched one where he wasn't allowed to get a word in over Keane, Scholes(or was it Rooney?), and especially Neville. Here, even though they tease him a lot, Micah is allowed to make his point.

Regarding Arsenal, I appreciate Micah's ability to see what Alan and Gary don't. Without their captain, their midfield is slow and predictable without that "killer pass"-that creativity-that he mentions. There isn’t a midfielder in there besides Ødegaard who can create chances from midfield, not to mention the fact that he presses like a demon; more than any of his team-mates!

[@johnrainsford168]

Mo Salah has scored more Premier League goals for Liverpool than Alan Shearer scored for Newcastle. Let that sink in.

[@furbs9999]

“Off the pace in the first half” No, we were crap, the worst 45 mins we have played in 2 years. There is something said in the SAS, “Everyone gets the full treatment” Sometimes Liverpool seem to think we can cruise past the teams outside the top 6. We should treat every team the same, with the same effort, pace and commitment.

[@lukebrown8580]

You won 2-1 chill 😂

[@HectorTilla94]

it was a poor performance in the first half but it wasn't as bad as you think. Brighton are just a veyr very good side and we had just beat them so they came with a point to prove and they did that. After we had a chance to regroup and change things up after half time we went again and did very well

[@redmed10]

It goes back to klopp time. I instilled the idea of letting the other team blow themselves out in first half, conserving your oen energy. Wait for gaps to emerge in second half as other team tires and take advantage. That attitude of mind has stayed with the team with or without slot intention or permission. It was more noticeable last season because we conceded so many early and first half goals last season. Not so this season. But we have been lack lustre in most first halves. To the point I almost think we are not worth watching. The amount of bad first touches and passing is horrible yo watch. Results are hard to argue with but we are a terrible watch at the moment. All good for being slot first season. Points are the main thing at the moment.

[@timmy5876]

It’s funny with salah the last 18 months, i feel like he either plays well or he contributes to a goal, like idk how many times last season he’d run the game but the goals would come from elsewhere and he’d go off lowkey fuming at himself or he would be silent for 89 minutes then have a moment of magic for a shot or pass and score. There’s obviously times he does both of those but in general there seems to be a theme, almost like he’s saving his energy for that one moment he can do something and until that he just plays the simple pass

Caicedo's Goal was a Volley if im not mistaken.... Micah can look at that for an e.g. 😜

[@tymkoc3293]

1 Micah's comment I can't agree with: Trossard's usefulness to the team as a starter. He cost the Gunners 3 (2) points away at City- a crucial and historic 3 points by kicking the ball away and getting himself sent off. Missed a pen in CL game they barely won 1-0. Yet Arteta continues to start him for some inexplicable reason.

[@alidaniels2487]

Arsenal's problem is that they shouldn't be able to say they're missing Odegaard, especially with the talent they have in the rest of the squad, but the sorry truth is that they really are nowhere near as good without him

[@Sarge80]

If you would keep players accountable for their performances about 75 procent of Man Utd's starting 11 would be benched next game. If we look from the beginning of this season the same procentage would be out in all the games.

[@royferguson2297]

Gabby gun love it the spurs hammered Aston Villa.

[@Jcheezzzz]

Arsenal cannot quite confront the great likelihood that they are soon to become the top team in the country. It's making them "hiccup" all over the place. Maybe, Arsenal don't have enough "winners" in the squad. Declan is having trouble shaking off the "underdog" habit of West Ham, and is trembling at growing into the "tough" leader (and winner) that he actually would need to become for Arsenal to become that top and winning team. Saka seems to have become "stiff" after the "playing for England" effect of too "serious" (no longer having insouciant, flamboyant but real and highly effective fun on the football field), too much leaning on strong-headedness rather than on developing even more into a superb front-player who gets "goals!". Still, being a fan--I wish them well though these past weeks have set them back maybe two years or more, in winning Arsenal's first Champions League. Maybe, if Arsenal gave up on chasing the Premiership (which I doubt that they will win ... the transformation into real Premiership winners not having taken place ...) and put everything into having a tremendous all-or-nothing attempt at the Champions League ... ? In this wise they would be able to maintain an upward trajectory in their development into a majorly winning team.

[@luke7962]

Wrighty could be the next professor x 😂

[@livinginafantasyworld5164]

Don’t want to go too strong as I think there is an overreaction on Arsenal with still many games to go but their summer transfer business should be questioned. Califori looks good. Unsure on Merino. Sterling only really played in the cups and still no out and out striker in the squad. Losing Smith-Rowe looks an error with Odegaard out, he would be the perfect fill in
