That was coming to be hones, good header from Luiz

Keep giving free kicks in those areas with our set piece record it was only a matter of time before one went in

Saw that free kick coming miles off. We were too deep and all they had to do was pull it to the penalty spot.

Poor.

Thomas struggling badly today.

Barnes needs to cover more or we need to change or formation.

Not Thomas’ fault but there’s an overload on the left and he’s exposed.

That was poor defending but we have been struggling since our goal

Do we even have a midfield today?

Penalty all day long

Excellent goal, unfortunately not for us,
Thomas Def needs more help
Do you go 352

Penalty

That's going to be a penalty

What was he doing with his hand?

Can’t have your hands up like unless your Aston Villa in a cup semi final..

At least it forces Rodgers to review things at half time. Going in at 1-1 and he’d fool himself in to thinking this is working.

Right Team but he had them paying Srsenal too much respect, we should be pressing far higher up the pitch with high tempo.

I don't understand why Wilf has his arms up there.

This, been really negative to be honest

Can't argue about the scoreline, Arsenal have been much better than us

Ndidi and Barnes having bad games today.

Ndidi always struggles under the press and I actually think Mendy copes better with it.

Seeing what we’ve seen first half, we have to find a way of linking our play better. It’s honestly like we haven’t got a midfield. Arsenal look exposed down our right, so maybe get Albrighton on for Barnes to offer more support for Thomas and let Castagne push on more, or switch to a back 3 and let the full backs push right up.

Please change something!

Wouldn't be against Vardy coming off for a rest, he hasn't been right for a while and is offering nothing.

Arsenal taking the game to us and our final third of the season meltdown is well under way.

Albrighton for Thomas.
If Thomas continues he will either get a red card or completely hold back from getting close to Pepe

So is this the start of the Rodgers collapse for the season? Probably a bit early to think that.

I think he’s trying to get his hands completely up out of the way, rather than out in front which is the natural position as a reflex when you lift your leg.

Don’t see any point in blaming any players from any teams on those decisions. The rule is stupid but that’s the way it is. It’s complete luck. Every player more times than not has their arms somewhere that would be a penalty. It’s just whether it hits it or not

More concerned about the marking on the set piece (as usual)

Change nothing except step up the tempo, get in their faces much higher up the pitch.
