#ARSLIV

And back to the Premier League.

The toughest test since the opening two games when we lost, narrowly in one game, to the teams currently in the top three of the Premier League.  This time against the team in 2nd! At least it is at home.

It's an evening kick off for television.  Who cares about the people that go to games? At least the Scousers will be able to get home after the game!


Update:

For the first time this season the Arsenal players started to play from the first whistle rather than let the opposition take the initiative.  It seemed to be working. The game would have been great to see for the neutrals watching on TV but it was more hard work for us in the Arsenal seats.

In the end a defensive error led to James Milner scoring for Liverpool. A cross was parried out by the keeper Leno and Milner took his opportunity to strike the ball low into the net.

Both sides had "goals" disallowed for offside in the first half and it ended 0-0.

In the second half I believe that Arsenal were the better side but not by much. Conceding first again doesn't help but in the end Lacazette equalised after tenaciously pressuring the keeper into a mistake, then doing a 360 turn to shoot into the goal.
