Liverpool Humiliates Arsenal At Anfield.
Two first half goals from Roberto Firmino (17), Sadio Mane (42) and another two second half goals from Mohammed Salah (57) and Daniel Sturridge (77) even without Philippe Coutinho was all that Liverpool needed to humble Arsenal 4 - 0 as they move to the 2nd position (courtesy of 'some' goals with Huddersfield) on the EPL table with just 2 points behind Manchester United who are sitting on the number one spot having won all their opening fixtures without conceding at all.
The Gunners have not won in their last 13 league away games against last season's top six teams while - in contrast - the vibrant Reds are unbeaten in their last 11 league matches versus the same clubs (as a sky sport pundit would put it).
Speaking after the match, Klopp said "We wanted to prove to ourselves, we wanted to be spot on from the first second, we wanted to show our desire, we wanted to show our greed and we wanted to show our ambitions against a very strong side. You never know if you then can win the game, but we didn’t think about winning the game, more about the performance. The performance was perfect and the result is a result of the performance."
Arsenal coach, Wenger admitted that they were "an easy opponent" in what he did term "an unacceptable performance." Wenger couldn't help but watch as he was booed to leave the club by some fans
Salah, The man of the match! |
