Not much luck there though 
Liverpool are the luckiest club in the league and it will never end
- Thread starter Pexbo
- Start date
Their luck ran out this year. First 2/3rds of the season they massively over performed their points returns with a series of fluky refereeing incidents. This is their level.Not much luck there though
xPts has them on 73 points, and that's with significant help.
I love him as a player but insane that Alexis MacAllister went through tonight's game without getting a yellow. Not like they were all nothing fouls either given he charged right into McGinn and the ref was 5 yards away, clearly saw it and then proceeded to do nothing about it once play stopped. 
This isn't a common occurance with him. Many times I've seen him this season and been amazed that he managed to avoid getting sent off.
He had a fecking red card rescinded back in August.
Thought so. Still got a bit to go to reach Fabiano "10 shots before he gets a yellow" drinking game standard though.
Didn't he put a high foot into Maguire's chest and still get awarded the free kick?
Yup. He’s lucky that he’s playing for Liverpool.
Mount injured
This counts as good luck?
United's press and shape grows worse, Liverpool should benefit from that.
However...
Zirkzee hat-trick?
Written in the stars! That or a Nunez mazy run with cultured finish to win....
There's no point in trying to guess the outcome of this game as it's been a great leveler, regardless of form or personnel.
We've been really easy pickings for you for a good number of seasons before our recently found ability to conjure up a result. I guess it is a bit harder to predict because of that, but it'd be the safer bet to assume we'll get beat.
Just seen the state of Arsenal’s squad going into this…
Odegaard injured.
Saliba suspended.
Saka injured.
Clafiori injured.
Timber injured.
Tomiyasu injured.
Tierney injured.
It’s never ending

Saka and Timber both playing. Tierney and Tomiyasu are always injured plus they are fringe players. The only losses are Saliba and Odegaard.Just seen the state of Arsenal’s squad going into this…

Puuuulease. We have the best goalie in the world out for months. We have a mgr who came in with basically no transfers to a new league and is thrown right away into the deep end of the pool called the Premier League. To get a result today away will be against all odds.Just seen the state of Arsenal’s squad going into this…

Do you really think playing nobody from the Top 4 for the first three months of the season is “thrown in at the deep end”?
I’d call it gentle lowered into the kids pool wearing armbands.
I’ll grant you your, *checks notes*, injury though. It must be tough to figure how to change your tactics when one player is injured and it’s not even an outfield player.
The cnuts are getting all the decisions in today's game away to Arsenal. This Taylor is an absolute arse.
The usual then.
Playing one of the hardest games with Saliba, Odegaard out, Saka half fit, Gabriel and Timber coming off injured, is classic Liverpool.
Just so them.
But at least their little winning run is over.

The Sky commentator has his tongue right up the collective Scouse arses.
We're obviously United fans so not the most balanced on this, but a few years ago they had a mad run where they would constantly play a team without their best player. Toney, Zaha just 2 I remember instantly.
Can anyone explain why Arsenal late goal was disallowed? Referee pretended he blew his whistle before the goal but the replay showed he didn’t blow it at any point
From a neutral perspective I think a draw was a fair result, Arsenal had the better of the first half, Liverpool the second.
Changed my mind after watching it over again. Right decision. Very active arm from Havertz and it also seems like his arm touch the ball.

What are you on about? The first three months of the season aren't even over yet and we'll have played Arsenal, Villa and Chelsea before that. So basically we just didn't have a game vs City in the early stages of the season, shocker.
Is this a joke? How the f did he escape the ref/VAR?
Three months was clearly a vague timeline. At the time of writing it you hadn’t played Arsenal. Top 4 was referring to last years table.
Feel free to argue over semantics, you’ve had a very very easy start.
A very good start, is also a legitimate point of view - especially given the fact Slot is flawless in Europe so far.
I wouldn't have disputed it if you just had said that, but I'll point it out if you're just unnecessarily gonna make stuff up to support your (valid) point.
And the argument keeps shifting by the way. "Wait till they've had a few tough fixtures", then we get 4/6 against Chelsea H and Arsenal away and it's "they haven't played everyone of last year's top 4 yet". Utd fans keep coming up with new stuff, in a desparate attempt not to give any credit whatsoever to what Slot has done so far.
Thrown in at the deep end? How else would it work for a new manager? You want them eased in somehow?
You’ve now played an Arsenal side with lots of key players out or unable to finish the game and would have lost but for Taylor inexplicably calling a foul on a 50/50 header (Mike Dean’s words of all people who almost always sides with the referee) and should have had your captain red carded for off the ball violent conduct.
To say you were lucky is an understatement.
Arsenal missed Odegaard and Saliba through his own dumb actions.
Havertz handball by the way. You should watch it sometime! Clueless if you call that a 50/50 header, he barges in from behind with his entire arm on the Liverpool player's neck
May: Liverpool are done once Klopp leaves
July: It’s only pre-season
August: Slotball looks boring
September: Slot’s enjoying a honeymoon
Early October: They haven’t played anyone yet
Late October: The good opposition had injuries
November: ?

What's your excuses for van Dijk getting away with a blatant red card or Konate getting away with an even more blatant penalty?Arsenal missed Odegaard and Saliba through his own dumb actions.

"They have not played every team of the top 4 back in 2007 within the first 4 months of the season"
Probably a booking, but Havertz's theatrics maybe deterred the ref.
