PODCAST: Liverpool 4 Arsenal 0 - Match Reaction

I'm only 7 minutes in and already buzzing off Dave's total and utter contempt for Arteta's defensive tactics. This is going to be a good one.

Wait til you hear Jules' closing monologue.

Ha ha cheers!

A great listen on the walk this morning, thanks to all.

Arteta, his players and their fans have being getting cocky because they had a reasonably good run over 10 games. They thought they could go toe to toe with us but really, were pretty poor. Their front 2 were toothless.

Good point about corners, we dont score enough from the aerial ball, especially Virgil and Joel.

Loved the way Tsimikas ran all the way back to celebrate Taki's goal, I think it was, with Alli after his throw out.

Tsimikas is outperforming Robertson on current form and must be close to being first choice. 

The corner vs free-kick debate is really interesting. 

I'll forever maintain that we should be doing in-swinging corners. The free-kicks at least allows us some space to deliver the ball in between the keeper and the defence. 

I don't care if the stats show we score quite a lot from set pieces. We get an enormous amount of corners and set pieces compared to the other teams that top the graphs for goals from set pieces. We need to up our conversion rate.

Loved that. If I could pick a side to play 38 times a season it would Arsenal. 

If Tsimikas is playing I'd like to see if he can take the corners from both sides. 

Agree on inswinging corners. I'd like to see more of them.

Great pod lads keep it up.

and I thought Dave had the most contempt for Arsenal I’d come across until I listened to Jules in this. Great stuff. 

I bet Ramsdale congratulations himself in an over the top fashion when he takes a shit. Histrionics all over the place. Pickford 2. 

@Paul's take on Arteta's ridiculously distorted self image absolutely nailed it.

Didn't a caption during the game suggest we were the top team in the Prem for scoring from corners.

Jules rules.

Yeah, it doesn't take into account the huge number of corners we have though.

We've taken 91 corners (City have the most with 99), while West Ham with 67 are the closest to us in terms of goals

Yeah. Think you’ve crystallised my point for me. We get ridiculous numbers but proportionally don’t convert enough into goals.
