We will lose or draw.

Not denying O'Neill's managerial ability but players like Young, Downing, Milner etc weren't used to their potential under him.

yep agree with you completely
o'neill was actually 'too' oldschool

Relatively happy with that result considering the circumstances. Sure i'd have preferred we won but the way I see it is:

10 men, 1 of which was concust and it still took a liverpool player to score for Arsenal. On the whole, given the defensive shortcomings and dodgy bit of goalkeeping I see light at the end of the dark dark tunnel Liverpool are emerging from

That game isn't any indication of Liverpools season. Liverpool have always had a strong first XI, the problem is depth and they had no-one bar Torres missing today. We had Fabregas, Van Persie and Song all missing and Diaby and Arshavin were only half fit anyway but the game was away for us. I was expecting us to lose as said above and i'm happy with the draw.

Liverpool and Arsenal both didn't impress me much, had high hopes for Arsenal this year aswell.

And? They both looked vulnerable. Liverpool need to be careful coming into the Manchester City game because if Johnson bombs it down the winger at COMS then he'll be legging it back trying to catch Balotelli/Tevez/Ade/Yaya as Carragher doesn't have any pace. It's madness that they keep playing Carragher.

Arsenal looked the same old Arsenal. Not up for a fight, go out thinking they deserve to win because they play pretty football. I'll be unhappy with anything less than four points off Arsenal this year considering we took four points off them last year and beat them in the CC (albeit the youth team).

Arsenal, just like Liverpool, are confusing the hell out of me why they're not purchasing a keeper (Liverpool a CB). They've signed a striker to hopefully apply a finish to the pretty football but it's no use trying to play pretty football if your keeper is going to be letting a goal in every ten minutes because he's so gash.

People bang on about 'one game' however you can tell the area teams will finish in with five or ten minute glimpses from upfront and defence and how they play they look on the ball & off it. Arsenal and Liverpool both look vulnerable.
