Raya 7/10 money for nothing and your chicks for…..19 minutes Gakpo, quick throw in and a near post header, the chicks will have too wait, 20 minutes 2 nil, bring back Johnny Lukic, maybe next year I might finally be able to write in full, money for nothing and your chicks for free when he gets a clean sheet.

White 7/10 - 16 mins in, too many rums, not skinned twice yet, 58 minutes Ben white nearly skins someone COYG !! I’m putting that down as skinning his man, my boy who don’t like football is reading the view from the armchair via Crete !! Bonus point for attempting to skin someone.

Saliba 7/10 suns out here in Crete, I’m on a sunbed, the Rolls Royce at the heart of our defence looks like he wants his. Defended out of an equaliser on 65 mins after good work from Saka on the

Kiwior- 7/10 laying down a marker not only for this match but for next season, Gabriel should have some competition, 2 nil down after 20 minutes implies we need Gabriel back, although I’m hearing murmurings through the rum, Saliba was at fault for both ? It escaped me, I’m drunk what do I know.

Lewis Skelly 7/10 what to say ? Experience gained ?  First time at a raucous Anfield, this guys gonna be the first name on the team sheet for years to come, bonus point for his breakthrough this year !!

Odegaard 7/10 let the man get on a sunbed, recuperate, recharge, we go again, keep the faith, trust the process, if you can’t, come and watch it on a buffering feed in Crete like me, it’s all Good, he’s still a maestro, assist from the shot pushed onto the crossbar 2-2 ! Shot narrowly past the post in the dying seconds.

Partey 6.5/10 might be changing my opinion, read in the week the consensus is he has to go, I would be inclined to find a replacement and then ship him if we want too, tough at the top, the cream always rises.

Merino 6.5 /10 was he even on the pitch ? Visibly agitated on 44 minutes,not surprised he’s barely touched the ball, herein lies the merino conundrum, great when he’s great, not so much when he’s anonymous, fox in the box on 70 minutes 2-2 let’s have it 2-2 !! That’s not a red card, 2nd yellow he’s off !!10 mins left to hold on for the draw.

Saka - 7/10 should have scored on 3 minutes, blazed over on 29 after some nifty footwork, star boy is another one who needs a sunbed, if he can get to it without chiellini grabbing him by the scruff of his neck to beat him to it. Dangerous on a day off like he always is, he’s world class enjoy it and him gooners !

Trossard 7.5/10 I’m 38 minutes in, I’ve been on the rum all day, the view from the armchair by the pool in Crete cant actually recall him touching the ball in the first half, looking dangerous at the start of the 2nd, provided the assist on 46 mins for Martinelli with a pinpoint cross, bonus point for being from Belgium and playing for the Arsenal !

Martinelli - 7.5/10 i maintain, I love him, he is world class, if you need a reminder watch his run from his own half against the supposed best team on the planet to score the winner in the last minute in Madrid, judge him on that not today, sunglasses out, he’s on the sunbed, desperately needs some competition and a breather. 46 minutes breathes life into this game 2-1 Liverpool ! Very nearly equalised on 60 minutes, our most dangerous threat today !

Subs

Califori - 6.5/10 Italian, likes pasta, and pizza get him on a sunbed !

Zinchenko 6.5/10 like he needs the minutes ? Get him on a sunbed ! Arsenal supporter watch, I couldn’t hear a thing, through the sun, through the cocktails, with one eye on a 4-3 humdinger of an El Classico, I have complete faith you did your bit and got behind the boys COYG, a nice little marker for next year !!
