Late "top battle": What did Arsenal, who lost first and then tied?

After that ugly appearance, Arteta replaced two left-backs in one breath, but the substitution did not include Merino, nor did he start left-back Skelly. So this should have been a rather awkward "coordination". Trosal showed signs of injury, Tierney played for the left winger, and Calafiori replaced right back Ben White (Timber also had injuries in this game). However, after the game resumed, Merino immediately made another mistake in the backcourt, causing him to take the cards, and Tasman's substitution became a preview of the next round of formation: it is said that Rice's injury was not very good and might not be able to catch up with the competition against Newcastle. So when Merino was also suspended, will Arteta consider moving Skelly, who played as a midfielder in the youth team forward?

As for Liverpool, it is definitely a pity that the winning goal was blown away, but what is most concerned about is the "buzz" caused by Arnold's appearance. The England right-back has announced his free departure this summer, which has aroused the disgust of many Red Army fans, while coach Slott and the British media have worked hard to make up for the former after the game. Some high-sounding words are difficult to accept by dissatisfied fans, but some are also facts, such as "If Bradley is tired and I have Arnold on the bench, I will definitely let the latter play."

Slott's explanation is exactly the reality of this game. Bradley performed well in the first half, but was repeatedly tossed by Trosal and Skelly in the second half, and gradually became unable to do so. It can be seen that the young man cannot completely succeed Arnold for the time being, which is probably the place where many Red Army fans cannot be happy.
