"Arsenal were probably a bitthere was a bit of tension in the stadium. Liverpool aren't in a great place, you go on and win it you go X points clear I think if you're in the Arsenal dressing room afterwards you go it's not great but you take the point and move on."
"It's a nice lead to have, but the performance, they were a bit tentative, and that'll be a worry for the manager because obviously there are going to be bigger games coming up, and before you get to the end of the season it's obviously going to be more nerve-wracking. They looked a bit frightened tonight to grab that opportunity, but you take the point and the clean sheet of course."
Arsenal were held to a 0-0 draw by Liverpool at the Emirates, missing the chance to go eight points clear at the top of the Premier League. Liverpool produced a solid, frustrating performance that silenced the home crowd. Arsenal retain a lead over Manchester City but displayed tentative play and visible tension among players and supporters. That lack of composure presents concern ahead of more difficult fixtures late in the season. The clean sheet maintains a valuable point haul, yet the club's long wait for a league title since 2004 intensifies nerves among fans and those connected to the team.
