Arsenal 3-3 Liverpool

MotM-

(

I've been waiting for this match to come since 8:30. I had to work from then to 12:20 but there was nothing to do apart from a bit of filing so

Another three away goals! Another 3-3 with Arsenal.

For the first five, ten minutes, neither team had a midfield. The ball just went from one end of the pitch to the other and back again.

Arsenal looked the more in control but they weren't doing anything with it, they were saving themselves for later. While we were getting closer to netting.

Arsenal kicked ball after ball out of play.

Henderson had to go off with his hamstring, replaced by Milner who really got stuck into the game.

Firmino had chances that were just wide or just saved, his goal was coming.

Salah cross deflected up off Koscielny and Coutinho's header went over Cech and in!

I chose the photo because 1 Coutinho's first Premier League header and 2 in retrospect it looks less like he's pointing 1 out and more we're idiots why do we keep doing this?!

A mistake allowed Salah clean through but Cech saved and Mane decided to bicycle kick the rebound. It ended up just wide.That confirms it, Mane's jealous. He keeps trying for mad goals like that when he had the time and space to bring it down and try to score an easier goal.

They booed Arsenal off. They knew we should've scored far more than the one. We really were wasteful but I was certain we were going to get right back into scoring our away 3+

It didn't take too long. Salah was so casual as usual, with a brilliant finish as Liverpool break from one end of the pitch to the other.Joe Gomez won it, Firmino involved and Salah curled it home, via a deflection.

I didn't see Arsenal's three goals in under five minutes so I don't know how the hell that happened. The stream went off for just long enough to miss each one of them. 388 seconds between Salah's goal and the Gunners taking the lead.

I don't know how the fuck that happened. We must've lost our heads big time at conceding and once we trip, we really fall. I know Mignolet should've done better for two so we're right back to screaming for a new keeper.

Missed Firmino's too.

Firmino shot from inside the box from Can's pass. Cech saved it but the ball still had enough pave to drop over him and in.

At that point after the madness I'd missed I decided if this was the final score I had to accept it as an okay and fair one for our performance. I'm obviously disappointed to pick up only 1 point again. We're definitely not winning the top 6 league this year but at least we've secured 4th for Christmas.

Alex OC came on, got booed. Arsenal fans love a bit of booing.

Wijnaldum won the ball and bursts forward. The pass was a bit behind Salah whose shot hit the side-netting. I thought that one was in!

The stream didn't go down again to bring us another goal for either side.

The game finished with corners but no late goal to be had. Where's Joe Allen when you need him?!

Next up Swansea at home, Tuesday 26th December 2017 Boxing day.

Guess who's just sacked their manager just before we play them!

I don't think I'm gonna get my Christmas story together for you or for my Oasis stuff since I've got two days and I've not started. So merry Christmas and that if not.
