He's not right to post "Arteta

" when we go 1-0 down in the first half of a game

Sorry, dude, that's just ridiculous over-reaction. I mean, you may be aware we actually won that game!
That said, I'm not disputing that this season is feeling like a slog.
Yes you can. Of course it's a factor. Losing players like Odegaard and Saka for a period definitely affected things. You can blame a lack of squad depth, and that is fair, but we have had far more injuries to key players this year and of course that is going to have an impact.
Saka, mostly.
And yet at this stage last season we'd scored...1 more goal than this. And while we're here, we were 5 points off the top last season - Liverpool were top.
This year it's 6 and they have a game in hand, but my point is things can change quickly.
I don't think those two things are contradictory. It can be true that the lack of a proper striker is hurting us (and that definitely is true) and it can also be true that we've been unlucky in some games where referee decisions have cost us points.
But as I said overall what it all adds up to is us being in a fairly similar position to this time last year. I'm struggling to see us winning the title and it's frustrating what a procession it could be for Liverpool. But I'm not ready to throw in the towel just yet.
