Arsenal have now conceded 17 goals in their last five Anfield visits and, if anything, it was a surprise the latest capitulation stopped at four. Arsenal – weak, rudderless, anaemic – were not a great deal worse that time they let in eight at Manchester United. There was the attack when Georginio Wijnaldum took the ball past Aaron Ramsey, then went back to do it again. Liverpool took a little while to realise their opponents were ripe for a beating but once Firmino headed them into a 17th-minute lead it was startling to see the imbalance between the two sides. An Arsenal corner had turned into a Liverpool goal and, once again, it was alarming to see the chaos within Wenger’s ranks.
