Arsenal fans would be probably swimming down from Anfield in their tears after watching their teams hammered four goals with no reply.\u00a0 It would take the bravest of Arsenal fans to don the Arsenal jersey this international break. With all respect, Wenger\u2019s team last Sunday looked despairingly toothless against a venomous Liverpool side. By the time four goals had slipped into Peter Cech\u2019s net, we had learned a bag of lessons. Let us look at some of these lessons we learned from Arsenal\u2019s shameful 4-0 capitulation in Anfield.<\/p>\n
While we can\u2019t take the gloss off the fierceness of Liverpool\u2019s attack line featuring Mane, Firmino, and Salah, Arsenal still largely struggled in the center of the pitch. In the first half, Ramsey and Xhaka were out of sorts and were ravaged by the bullying and uncaring likes of Emre Can, Georginio Wijnaldum and Henderson.<\/p>\n
In one of the goals, Xhaka was immensely faulty of losing possession. Ramsey was nowhere close to bailing him from the mess. The incompatibility of the midfield pair was so glaring, Wenger needed no genius brains to see it hence he threw in Coquelin for Ramsey. But this was not the medicine as the rattling from the red continued.<\/p>\n
As the match flowed on and Arsenal fans yearned for the referee\u2019s whistle, the 8-2 defeat at Old Trafford readily floated to mind. The fans needed to stay in the library for weeks to study why Wenger chose to leave out Lacazzette for Welbeck. Wenger\u2019s\u00a0 squad selection was really questionable as another summer signing Sead Kolasinac was neatly kept on the bench as well. No exaggeration, but Wenger looked tactically battered by Jurgen Klopp in the battle of the head. The disenchantment of the Arsenal populace is brimming as this kind of performances consolidates Arsenal’s emerging status as consistent Europa league candidates. With such kind of outing on Sunday, asking the Arsenal team for the trophy would be as unkind as asking a one year for six packs. The fans are beginning to believe with increasing certainty that Wenger is becoming tactically obsolete.<\/p>\n
By the time Salah had made it three goals, the cameras turned to Sanchez who was obviously disappointed and moaning. This is becoming all too familiar sight. The Chilean star is struggling to accept the dejection at Arsenal and the malnourishment of motivation from his teammates.<\/p>\n
