Transcript
00:00Full-time here at Anfield, Liverpool deliver a massive victory even at this early stage of the season, a 1-0 win over Arsenal, Premier League champions beating last season's runners-up, it wasn't an eventful game to be honest with you but it was decided by a moment of magic, a fantastic, sumptuous Dominic St-Bosley free kick in the 83rd minute that settled a largely uneventful affair that Arna Slott admits if the game was played ten times, eight times it would have
00:29ended as a draw but Liverpool pulled it out of the bag, to be honest I think Liverpool had it, I think Arsenal were better in the first half but they didn't create a lot of clear chances, Liverpool had moments but they were quite wasteful in several moments and bar one comfortable Alex and Becker save, both keepers were largely untroubled but Liverpool deserved in the second half, he stepped things up a little bit, Curtis Jones came on
00:59and made a real difference and Liverpool had a goal ruled upside rightly through a few records, he came deep, we're probing and as I say, 83rd minute, St-Bosley stepped up after Curtis Jones been brought down and what a freak hit from 30, 33 yards, posting in, a sublime hit and he was magnificent Dominic St-Bosley playing as a right back yet again, making sure right back, he was superb,
01:28Milos Kierkez was excellent, the left back as I performed this summer, he came at Canadi, he's had a few dances early season but he was excellent before he had to come off with an injury, got Arna Slott's hopeful, he said Canadi's 40 had cramp, he'll have a scan,
01:46Florian West came off with camp as well, he really drew into the game, looking at the pools, after three games, they're the only team who have a perfect record in the Premier League, Premier League Champions, just room for improvement of course, they were quite open in the first game against Bourne, they got that job done, they had to battle to victory against Newcastle,
02:08and they tightened up a little bit against Arsenal, but Arsenal didn't really lag, look okay, they were missed players like Kyle Saka, Kai Havert, and Martin Okergaard could only come off the bench, but Arsenal didn't create an awful lot,
02:24which is positive for Liverpool, because they're only going to get better, at both ends of the pitch, when they're gelling, Liverpool going for the international break now,
02:33it does come with a right to the wrong time, I don't know really, at this early stage, a lot of Liverpool's players will be going away, to represent the respective nations,
02:42be interested to see what happens with Canard today, in terms of the scan, and Florian Wirt will be pulled from the Germany scores as well, but it felt like a big win, even at this early stage,
02:53but you see the faces of some Arsenal fans on the TV screens, leaving Anfield, they press forward, as they know that if Arsenal want to win the league, I think, for the last three seasons,
03:05they need to start winning these sorts of games, Liverpool win another big game, like they did last season, you think Chelsea, last campaign,
03:15they weren't at the best, they got the jobs up, so, yeah, massive win, even at this early stage, and Liverpool won Arsenal nil.
