Full marks to Arsenal, a top class team who got us excited in the last ten minutes when they were deffo the better team, as they were until we scored our first goal. Fitness won the day.
Is it me, or is Andrew R's quality dropped? He seems to be giving the ball away, time and again (less though, today). Some of his play was fantastic, but his standard is down.
Views?
Is it me?

Klopp said before the game it is hard to analyse our opponents before hand as nearly all of then change their approach and tactics against us. I mean they used a diamond yesterday which indent think they have played before with Emery. City also change their approach against us.

Yes Jim, it’s you
Having said that, Trent clearly needs to work on his final ball.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yeah, his assists tally shows how bad his final ball is
----------------------------------------------------------------------
He acknowledged it himself.
Try not being a smartarse for once.

Footballers will always say they need to improve, he’s not going to say he doesn’t need to work on his game, is he?
That’s different to you saying it though, his assist stats are better than any other right back in the league.

The title run in started on game one, between us and City...... Yesterday’s game just had the usual effect of bringing you gooners back down to Earth after a few flat track wins.....

So me and Trent are right and you’re not.
There’s a reason why our fullbacks get so many assists other than just being good full backs. It’s called a system.
Trent got into a good position so many times yesterday and the majority were poor. That’s objectively true regardless of whether he got an assist.

Metro, your dislike (or your Brother's ) of Trent has been visible since he first started getting games in the first team. You, or your Brother , have repeatedly hammered him.
His final ball yesterday wasn't great, but you should listen to what the manager had to say. He highlighted at half time to the forwards needed to split their runs. Our fullbacks, even with a the space afforded to them had little to hit at times in the first half.
Criticism of Trent s defending, particularly his positioning and occasional switching off is far more valid, rather than the one area of his game which is genuinely world class, namely his quite superb passing and crossing.

I have no dislike of the lad.
I thought he had a weak start to last season and I’m seeing similar signs this season too.
I pointed out his final ball because in a Klopp system, the fullbacks are the wingers as well as the defenders.
I’m pretty happy to state that I’m a Trent fan. I prefer Robertson as I think there’s more to his game and he’s more consistent.
The general consensus on Trent so far this year is that he must improve. That’s not a contentious point - although T1 has an issue with it.

He peaked last season...now it's about consistency.
