A draw for me. Both teams have the ability to go on a good run.

Doesn't matter either way to me. We're ahead of them both and neither team plays us again this season so they can only catch us if we slip up.

I'm more interested in our game against Saints. I think we will win big!

arsenal are so poor. I don't blame wenger, the players are crap when push comes to shove. wilshere was the only one that looked up for it.

Spurs win is the best result tbh, Arsenal will get thumped next week too so hopefully that's them out of the top 4 for a while.

If the players are the problem, then I'm sorry but nobody but Wenger is to blame. He's been there what? 22 years? And all the while he has been the only man making decisions on the football side of things.

Every single player, every single coach, and probably every other member of staff below board level, is there because of Wenger. He's basically judge, jury and director of football!

{Ed002's Note - No, that has all changed.}

Only very recently though Ed (November assuming you mean what i think you mean), and Arsenal have been a mess for years.

{Ed002's Note - Right, so what you said was incorrect. There has been a step change and that will continue. As for being a "mess", last season is the first finihing outside of the Champions League places for more than 20 years - so not that much of a mess.}

This is a random one but how would people feel about kasper smicheal? Seems too good to stay at Leicester forever.

Kasper Schmeichel is a very average keeper. We should be looking for a top class keeper. Not a mid table one.

Ed you can keep something going with cellotape for a while but it doesn't mean it's not broken inside. Arsenal have been a mess for about 10 years.

Now the cellotape has come away look where they are.

{Ed002's Note - The last 10 years they have won the FA Cup three times and have only once missed out on Champions League qualification. How does that compare to the likes of Spurs or Liverpool? Miles and miles better.}

Spurs are looking ominously good in my opinion players back from injury too so they also have options on the bench.

I've just realised my final line was a typo Ed. It should of read
"He's basically been judge, jury and director of football"
It was meant to be past tense, as to my knowledge, Arsenal brought in the guy from Barcelona in November which is why Barcelona wanted the Coutinho deal done that month.

That is exactly my point though Ed002. Arsenal have been happy with 4th place for over 10 years now. They've stood still for so long that they are now the 6th best team in the country, despite being the best about 12-14 years ago. Scraping CL qualification just papers over the cracks.

Would Klopp keep his job if he finished 4th ten seasons in a row? I'm not so sure. There has been no ambition at Arsenal in my opinion for too long. Maybe the new guy will change things. He's not been there long enough to put his stamp on things though so my point was that this team is all Wengers doing. Except maybe Mkhitaryan and Aubameyang i guess as they're the only changes to playing staff that habe been made since November.

{Ed002's Note - Arsenal have been trying to win the leagur in each of those 10 years and immediately prior to last season Arsenal were 2nd and 3rd in the league. The two you mention are far from the only changes to playing staff since November.

You perhaps should limit your thoughts to Liverpool MK as you have stuggled to be coherent in respect of both Arsenal and Chelsea in recent posts.}

Sorry you feel that way Ed002. This site exists so that people can have an opinion on anything and everything football. You don't have to agree, and maybe some of my points are factually incorrect; you'll have to forgive the misinformation that is put out to us mere mortals to form an opinion on though. I don't have the luxury of inside knowledge which is why i come here to be educated.

Does that mean I'm not allowed to talk about it though? You're not doing my teachers pet reputation any good by the way 😂 people think we share a bed!

{Ed002's Note - If you post things that are factually incorrect - such as about the playing staff at Arsenal I will correct if I feel so inclined. You seem to have a penchant for saying this about otehr clubs that are simply wrong.}

Spot on, MK. Does not matter what Spurs or Arsenal do or don't do. They can no longer affect our results and vice versa as we don't play them anymore. However, we have a chance to affect their results next week as we play at home and Spurs play at CP and Arsenal host City BUT before we even get to that, all hands must be on deck for the Saints game tmrw cos we can easily get unstuck over there as Arsenal and Spurs actually did this season.

Our fans seems happy with top 4. Our manager has not won a trophy yet and looks like we are heading to another trophy less campaign. How are we so better than Arsenal? I'm worried that we'll lose tomorrow and we will slip to 5th place fighting again for top 4.

Ed your comment about a step change brought me back to my uni days. Step and emergent change and all that jazz! Was going to ask about management strategies in football clubs a while ago but couldn’t string a coherent post together. Maybe when I sober up.

Where did i say we are any better Harry? Although we are marginally because Rafa, Hodgson, Dalglish and Rodgers all got sacked for underperforming. In that time frame, Arsenal have stuck with the same old rubbish right up until 3 months ago when they finally made a change.

When Klopp has gone 14 years without a major trophy (PL or CL), and not been sacked, then maybe we will be as bad.

Baby, if you are afraid to watch us play then for sure, you lack the bottle to watch and support your team cos supporting your team thru thick and thin, is not for the weak-hearted so I suggest you don't bother watching esp. if you are so sure we will lose.

And so what we did not win a trophy this season? What do you want us to do about it? Take our toys and go home? If we won a trophy and came 5th, would that be good for you? Arsenal did the same thing last season and where are they now? They kept their deluded manager and he is dragging them down even further down the tubes.

We are where we are and tho we all wanted a trophy, Top 4 is our priority now and you comparing us to Arsenal is complete horse manure. While we've been messing around with incompetence up and down the club, they have been winning leagues, Cups and making CL within the past 20 years. We were nowhere near them when Klopp arrived and now, we are leaving them in the dirt.

It is that type of baseless self entitlement attitude of denigrating other teams who have been more successful than us in the past, that has gotten us where we were which was NOWHERE until he arrived. If Klopp gets us top 4 this season, then we would have had a solid season even tho, there is more room for improvement and Klopp will be the first to tell you that. Nothing more, nothing less.

MK, you doing that thing fans do when they confuse outcome with ambition. Its total dross to imply that arsenal only want to finish 4th each season. Just the same as its total dross when lfc fans make a connection between a failed transfer and a lack of ambition from our owners. Its the most inimaginative and lazy criticism. Especually when you include that arsenal haave been competing at the top table of europe for the past decade, have been winning domestic trophies in between, I can't see the argument here.

That is exactly what Ed02 said above. They have been competing all these years and their decline has been from only two years. Glad you admit we were absolute duds till Klopp took over.
