    Gabriel Martinelli's duel with Trent Alexander-Arnold was flagged up as an area where Arsenal could get some joy but to get it inside a minute is dream stuff for the Gunners.

    Emirates Stadium is alive. What can Liverpool to do respond to going behind early once more?

    I said we were going to learn a lot about the two sides today...

    Arsenal are 14 points above Liverpool as things stand and more importantly top of the Premier League.

    Like a knife through butter there. Martinelli opens his right foot and just tucks it in. This Liverpool team seem shell shocked.

    Gabriel Martinelli

    Wow.

    Liverpool are on the attack as Diogo Jota's ball into Darwin Nunez is cut out. Bukayo Saka carries the ball from the halfway line and picks out Martin Odegaard.

    Odegaard plays a perfect through ball into Gabriel Martinelli, who sweeps home from 12 yards.

  18. 'We had the right mentality'published at 16:27 British Summer Time 9 October 2022

    FT: Crystal Palace 2-1 Leeds

    Crystal Palace

    Crystal Palace boss Patrick Vieira, speaking to BBC Sport: "We knew what to expect and the first half an hour was difficult for us. They pressed us. But we came back and built a momentum that allowed us to win the game.

    "Leeds executed the game plan well. They knew we wanted to play from the back and our decision making wasn't the best. That is why we went a bit more long ball.

    "We needed it as a team. When you win games you create a momentum and belief in the way you want to play.

    "We were calm. Of course we were looking at the league because the table doesn't lie but we were not getting what we deserved in games. Today the mentality was right and we took the three points."

    On Eberechi Eze: "He was a really good link and in front of goal like that he can score goals. I expect him to score more goals."

  19. 'We have to keep learning and improving'published at 16:27 British Summer Time 9 October 2022

    FT: West Ham 3-1 Fulham

    Fulham

    Fulham boss Marco Silva to BBC Match of the Day: "I will not speak about the referee, sorry, because they will probably come after me and I'll be off the bench or pay a fine. I am not here for that, I am here to manage my players.

    "I will not say to you what I think. Can I ask you what you think? Even for the third goal there was a handball about five seconds before. Congratulations to West Ham, they got the three points.

    "Until the penalty we were clearly the best team on the pitch. West Ham have a lot of quality and come from two really good seasons but Fulham Football Club were clearly the best team of the pitch.

    "We showed personality, character and we like to control the game on the pitch and the penalty changed the balance of the match. We lost some focus and confidence after the penalty.

    "The game showed that we have to keep learning and improving. I will keep demanding more from my players and more maturity to manage periods of the game better."

    Neil: A very attack-minded formation for Liverpool & I would like to see it when defending. It could be a long afternoon! Let's wait and see. YNWA.

    Noel: Chris Sutton feeling brave with his 4-1 to Arsenal! I think this will be the spark to ignite Liverpool's season, Mohamed Salah lighting the fire. 1-2!
