Post Match Thread - Liverpool 0 - 1 Arsenal - 1st November 2026

Considering we didn’t have one for Chelsea and we lost I’ll set one up here.

Not sure how a poll is done but then no one deserves a mention as it was pretty poor all around.

Would be nice if we realised that a ball can’t actually go through a person.

Wirtz. Barcola. All disjointed.

why do England produce the worst refs in the world?

Played well after the goal.

Iraola messed it up by taking off Nyoni for Szobo. Can´t believe a premier league manager didn´t realise that wasn´t a good idea.

Went toe to toe with the champions overall. They´re not that great but still, decent from us.

Never a good strategy to go 1 behind to Arsenal, of all teams.

Second half was meh, but that goes for both sides.

I don’t think anyone deserved a win but sadly we have no point to show for it.

Don’t understand why Liverpool didn’t make more of the shirt pull.

The ref was fucking shocking , but I guess we just accept that now as par for the course.

MacAllister MOTM.

Barcola , Isak , Gakpo all hugely disappointing.

Poor subs just to round off the frustration but we still deserved at least a draw.

Really really hate Arsenal and everything they represent. The Prem would be better off without both them and City.

It was an awful decision, as soon as I saw Nyoni coming off, knew we would become worse, which we did.

Wirtz Isak and Barcola were all dour today. If you dont know what I mean by dour, try dog shit.

Ref did his paymasters proud, there were. few failures to show Arse a yellow, and lots of foul on us not given. Surely the PL deep committee have decided Arse need to retain the title, what with all the noise around Citeh.

We started bad into the second half. Nyoni is 19 and this was the biggest league match he started for us so far.
Actually a no brainer to take him off in favor for a attacking minded /experienced box to box player.

MacAllister was MOTM

The penalty decision re Isak is beyond a mistake.

Arsenal are going to be champions through anti football

When Munoz was coming on I thought it would have been for Barcola and put Rio on the left with Munoz on the right.

Munoz is different from our other wide men he just goes for it not much trickery just head down and take him on.

No brain decision is about right.

We were playing fine. We saw exactly why it was a bad decision. Most of our fans saw it coming.

His age is irrelevant. He was playing fine and the team was balanced.

I am be pleasure for my compatriot Kai Havertz. But the defeat of LFC? Very horrible.

Oh and Arteta is one HUGE arrogant cunt.

Really hoping he gets sucked into the Citeh maelstrom.

Madley provided further evidence on how poor and pathetic English refs are by pandering to Arsenal. He officiated just like Arteta wished, allowing them to waste time and freely awarding soft fouls.

That said, this does feel like a self-inflicted loss. The first 15 minutes were spent by cheaply giving away possession. Alisson, in particular, was making similar mistakes against Brighton and this time he didn’t get away with it. The next 30 minutes were probably the best of the season’s so far, but produced nothing thanks to an infuriating inability to execute correctly.

Second half was almost a non-affair, as Arsenal aided and abetted by Madley went on to put the game to sleep, while we increasingly looked short of fresh legs and ideas.

A tough way to lose a game where we deserved at least a point, but it is also one of those frustrating losses that are necessary to learn from and improve.

Nuoni is 19 and only now getting to grips with the demands of first team football. Plus, he played against Chelsea on Wednesday. It is entirely possible that Iraola was making sure not to overload him. Gomez would make sense but so did Munoz.

Seriously? If this is them being dog shit, I’d love to see what they do when they are good. Probably get a hat-trick each.

I thought we played well, deserved something out of the match and I really don’t think anyone had a poor game.

Still lost, and that’s football sometimes.

I thought Nyoni’s sub was timely and appropriate. I’d rather look at the subbing of Wirtz instead of Barcola..

We’re chasing the game against a very disciplined defensive team, so what do you need Nyoni for?

The idea of just crossing the ball against Arsenal is a lost cause…

So after Nyoni went off we were 2nd best for 15 minutes, but it was the right decision even though we lost all pressure on Arsenal?
