Then rolling around on the sideline pleading, please don't hurt me, when we went down to 10 - undignified.

Game was there if we wanted it.

It his nature and why I am certain he'll never be a manager that people remember fondly when he eventually leaves.

We are without a striker, and a defender I think we’d both agree has been our best defender this season.

It’s possible had we not gone down to ten, we might have won. They bossed us first half, we don’t look at the races…we look tired. But I think given all those things…embarrassing sounds a little extreme

Embarrassing performances by both teams, if being honest. And the fans knew it. Nobody cared what the result of that match was.

Probably not unfair. For Liverpool it was a glorified friendly

I’m old enough to remember the dead games after we won the title. In 1998 Got the shit kicked out of us at Anfield, then lost at Villa Park. 2002, we had the 4-3 game at home to Everton where defending meant nothing to either side. Then we had 2004 where we only cared about not losing rather than winning

If we can draw the next game we'll go level with Everton at the top of the Draw League with 15. And it's entirely possibly we could draw with Southampton.

It's not beyond us.

2 draws with Liverpool so I think we can all agree we are basically as good as each other and should therefore share the title.

:trophy:

I don't know what we were doing in the first half, but we pulled it together at HT (and while i criticise Arteta a lot I will give him credit for whatever he said at HT) and it was much better after, if Merino hadn't been such a moron we might have won

Note, I did not say the performance was embarrassing (though it was nothing special either), but our intent, or should I say Arteta's intent, which if anyone was in doubt before the game was clearly revealed once we got back into it at 2-2 (before the red card).
