Not sure what game some people watched but Doku did fuck all. If sprinting into space and dribbling the ball out for a goal kick or smashing it into the first defender is a world class performance then wilfred zaha is the best winger in the world
Yeah, get the highest match rating of any player from Opta by doing “fuck all”.
He’s going to be a better player but the praise for this performance reminds me a lot of Adama Traore’s early Wolves days. He was absolutely unplayable and a menace every time he stepped on the pitch, and finished the season with 1 goal and 3 assists.
Still made me worry every time he got the ball. People are saying no end product but all it takes is one well delivered ball to the box and they’ve got enough people who can finish. Luckily he couldn’t manage that today
It was pragmatic from Klopp, and it paid off. I’ll take a draw at Etihad, but our team still has a long way to go.
We had a whole bunch of players who played all around the world for the last two weeks.
City… Didn’t.
A draw is a seriously great result and the performance wasn’t as bad as some are making out.
All the Arsenal fans getting way too excited by this result. There’s a LONG way to go and if your living off other teams results this early then you’re going to be bags of nerves come the last 10 games
Lots of Liverpool fans getting too excited and already talking about the return match at Anfield too as if they’ll magically win because of how things played out today. Arsenal fans should be happy that the teams in front of them dropped points.
We are much better against City at home, I believe the one time they have beaten us at home in the league since Klopp has been here was without fans at stadiums
Hard to see Grealish playing ahead of Doku now, he’s improving with every game imo
12/15 successful dribbles by doku against liverpool 😯
0/12 times he did something successful with the ball afterwards though.
He’s absolutely terrifying 1:1 but his final ball leaves a lot to be desired
his crosses and cutbacks into the box were very dangerous, is teammates just couldnt capitalize.
