Mount played well, the new Arsenal signings were lets say underwhelming.
One of the funniest moments of the match was when Ten Hag was having a real go at the 4th official and Bruno calmly led him away :laugh:

Rice and Havertz were shockingly bad
the summary really is that arsenal were woeful. Yes, it was a pre-season game, but this was not a friendly, it was highly competitive and arsenal were well off the pace, there was a crowd of 88,000

Na … the defence always takes longer to sort out plus they still need to sort out who plays defensive midfield… I expect Stefan Bajčetić will be the answer . No way will it be Curtis Jones after today 
Guess they are still figuring out what to do with TAA ??

Liverpool are in a world of trouble this coming season. Be surprised if we make top 6. Years of under investment have really taken it's toll on this squad now.

But the other teams have actually bought players to replace the ones they've lost. We sold JH and fab for £53m and we don't' have £50m to buy Lavia - the CDM we desperately need. We've sold or released 8 players this off season and we've bought 2 and are now playing poverty again. 1 or 2 injuries and top half will be in doubt. Completely threadbare/old/worn out squad. 
I know you moan about the glazers but ETH has a higher net spend than Klopp and he's been at utd for 1 year. Klopp has been here 7.

friendlies don't mean much tbh, i mean these are perfect for experimenting what you can improve upon
winning is nice, but even if you lose in friendlies, still a good learning experience for the new season
Fortuna Sittard, we lost quite some friendlies, but with small margins, and against the free agents team VVCS we turned a 0-3 at half time around to a 4-3 win so that fighter spirit is there, something what we lacked last year, being motivated to keep going even if ur behind 
i'm happy the big ego Yilmaz is gone, as for unmotivated moron George Cox too, or flop Erdogan
Koopmans ain't bad but he ain't first choice material like Pandur, good enough for the cup i guess, is better than Van Osch so
the luxury we have in midfield like Bistrovic, Duarte, Ferati, Halilovic, Ozyakub, Rosier as well as own youth Schenkhuizen :love: :love:
now up centre forward choice between Gladon and Sierhuis, as for the wingers Cordoba, Embalo, Noslin, Robberechts, Belkheir, also Vita whom can also play as Wingback
a new left back in Dijks, now we just need one more rightback, backup for our captain Pinto
central defense of ours are choices between Rodrigo Guth, Siovas, Nieling (own youth), Sayadi (own youth), Radic
