Liverpool stun Arsenal in seven-goal thriller at the Emirates

However, Philippe Coutinho levelled with a free-kick on the stroke of half time to spark an incredible 20-minute spell either side of the break.

After all Arsene Wenger was without recently appointed club captain Per Mertesacker – and will be for the next four months – while Gabriel Paulista is also out long-term and Laurent Koscielny has only been in training for a matter of days. Moreover, during the match, Aaron Ramsey and Alex Iwobi suffered hamstring and thigh injuries, respectively.

Arsene Wenger and Arsenal are in danger of being left behind by their Premier League rivals, according to Tony Cascarino. The most important thing is the group.

The 18-time English champions will travel to newly-promoted Burnley in their next Premier League fixture on Saturday. “If they can not get that striker, they should play Alexis Sanchez with Olivier Giroud”.

“I always said that the one thing I really needed to improve was to score more goals”.

“We have to be ready next week because we go to Leicester”.

“We pushed players today like Ramsey”, he said.

“But we are not stupid. It’s hard coming straight off the field and analysing straight away because I’m sure if I watch it from a distance I might pick one or two things we did well that I thought we didn’t, and vice versa”. “You have to sometimes accept that you can not control absolutely everything, even if you try to be as intelligent as possible”.

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has praised his side for the attacking display they put on in Sunday’s thrilling victory over Arsenal.

“Scoring four goals is wonderful, conceding three is the opposite of emotions”, Klopp said. “Now we have to focus on the next game, step by step and keep going”, he concluded.

“It was a good game, a tough game and we are happy because we won”.

“A genius shot of Phil”.

I don’t know, I haven’t spoken to the medical people.

“I’m convinced that there’s a lot to come from this team and from this group and we have to recover from that blow and prepare for our next game”, he said.

“At this moment, we switched off the machines”.
