    Arsenal are still in the Champions League and in the mix for the Premier League - am I the only one who doesn’t think this season is a right off yet?

    Liverpool

    Liverpool's stand-in captain Trent Alexander-Arnold, speaking to BBC: "It's huge. We've got a lot of players missing today with the lads on internationals and Virg not in the squad. We dug deep with two late goals. We changed things around at half-time and we came out and played football, created our chances. The change of system made an impact for us."

    Half-time changes: "At times in the first half we were a bit naïve playing out from the back. We stuck with how we play. We have our identity and used the speed of Darwin and Lucho [Luis Diaz]. Darwin went out wide and used his speed against their full-back."

    Creating opening goal: "With the in swinger you want to hit it as well as possible. You want to make it as hard as possible for them to clear. We hit the woodwork a couple of times."

    I think the inexperience of Mikel Arteta is beginning to show. He has put himself under too much pressure. Wrong team selection today. Playing Kai Havertz as a striker...

    Emmanuel

    Arteta has to go. Spent millions already and absolutely devoid of ideas. If he stays it'll be more of the same, the team will break up and players like Saliba and Saka will win trophies elsewhere.

    Three points clear at the top of the Premier League. Semi-finals of the League Cup. Last 16 of the Europa League. A gritty win at Arsenal to advance in the FA Cup.

    Chris Sutton
    Former Blackburn striker on BBC Radio 5 Live

    Liverpool with no Mohamed Salah today, but they have different options in forward areas.

    Arsenal's Kai Havertz dithered some chances. How big is this January for Arsenal and how much can they spend?

    Who is going to change their season?

    Without Van Dijk today, Konate has had to stand up and be the leader at the back. He's made some important tackles today.
