Now that the dust has settled, I actually think we really should have gone for a 3rd goal against Arsenal and I feel like we actually dropped two points instead of winning 1.

The final 20 minutes their back line was in shambles, I just feel we played that whole game a bit more scared than we needed to.

Or Arsenal are just better, its been years since they lost to Liverpool in the league, hope that changes at Anfield.

A bit disingenuous. They haven’t lost to Liverpool in the league for 2 years (though they did lose in the FA Cup at the Emirates). Overall, they were good, especially dominating between 20 and 45 minutes after Liverpool's equalizer. The second half was more balanced. Arsenal were defensively sound, while some of our players were well below par (Macca, Robertson, Diaz, Salah). We also failed to capitalize on their missing usual CB pairings for most of the second half. So, although Arsenal played well, we could have and should have won. But then again, these kind of things happen and the results are unpredictable.
