I knew we'd done a lot of deals where teams have agreed for us to pay little or nothing up front but pay them in installments. McNeil was a structured deal where we pay Burnley £3m every six months or something. Beto and Chermiti came to about £40m but we paid nothing up front. I'm surprised we're low down on the list because of that. Didn't realise everyone was at it to the same extent. Classic football clubs isn't it. Basically they've all been spending their future budgets for players in the present day and now it's catching up with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As it says 2022 I would imagine it’s the end of the 21/22 season as thats the most recent accounts released. Chelsea missing about £920m from that list lol.

Inverted 1,776 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 There is something mentally off with Arsenal. How is this 1-1 at half time and not like 3 or 4-nil? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liverpool laughing into the dressing room going in HT level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber RandoEFC+ 7,663 Posted February 4 Subscriber Share Posted February 4 Very Arsenaly that. Execute a game plan perfectly and then just undo it with one totally avoidable moment of incompetence. Nobody would be surprised to see Liverpool dominate the second half now because Arsenal are generally weak mentally and will let that one setback ruin the confidence they were playing with.

Subscriber Mel81x+ 3,613 Posted February 4 Subscriber Share Posted February 4 If you think Arsenal had a master blunder in the first half, phew we've just outdone them. What are those two even thinking about with that dance maneuver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Stan 18,386 Posted February 4 Author Administrator Share Posted February 4 Reminds me of Kabak and Alisson against us a few years ago. Alisson messed up there. Van Dijk had Martinelli covered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reluctant Striker 134 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 Both mistakes are a sign of playing-out-from-the-back going wrong. The old 90's if-in-doubt-put-it-out could have prevented both goals. But players just aren't trained & programmed to think like that these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny 2,206 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 That’s Van Dijk for me, gets muscled by Martinelli and pushed into Allison who has to try and kick it at an angle. Fair result so far, Arsenal the better team, Liverpool flat 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure that's the case, especially for Arsenal's goal considering it was just one lump up from defence. It was lack of communication and/or responsibility and just a bad mix up. Don't think you can blame playing out the back as the issue, especially as Alisson was looking to smash it away. As for the Liverpool goal, again more a lack of communication and good from Diaz to force the mistake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
