"We know that the margins are very small. I think we have two different halves. The first one, where we have a lot of domination, created big situations with players almost onside the six-yard box to pick a player up, and we didn't find the right pass to score the goal. And the second half was a bit more of a struggle."
"The Gunners missed a chance to go eight points clear at the summit on Thursday, with Liverpool - the defending champions - frustrating their hosts at Emirates Stadium. Arsenal started well but never really tested Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson, and it was Arne Slot's team who went closest to scoring when Conor Bradley hit the crossbar in the first half. There were only 17 shots between both teams combined (nine for Arsenal and eight for Liverpool). The Gunners finished with 0.57 expected goals to the Reds' 0.36."
