Liverpool starting XI:
Alisson:It was his error - a poor pass out - that led to Kai Havertz giving Arsenal the lead. Made a great save to deny Christos Tzolis but that mistake ultimately proved costly.4
Ronald Araujo: Made his 12th consecutive start. Battled well as ever but was given a really tough test by Christos Tzolis down Arsenal's left.6
Jeremy Jacquet: Shaky in patches but had a decent game on the whole and made a superb tackle after slipping in the second half.6
Virgil van Dijk: Reliable as ever but will be so disappointed with how easily Liverpool gifted Arsenal the lead.6
Milos Kerkez: Had a frustrating first half but delivered a lovely cross which Alexis Mac Allister should have headed in.5
Trey Nyoni: A real show of faith from Andoni Iraola to give the 19-year-old his first Premier League start. Looked a bit nervy early on but grew into the game.6
Alexis Mac Allister: Constantly involved in the first half but will know that he should have scored when Kerkez found him.6
Bradley Barcola: Started down his preferred left flank and caused Arsenal plenty of problems, though he is still waiting for a first Premier League goal.7
Florian Wirtz: Hit the bar with a great free-kick in the first half, but a player with his price tag simply has to do more in big games.6
Cody Gakpo: Looked lively initially, but Riccardo Calafiori dealt with him very well. Could have had a penalty, but the appeal was waved away by Andy Madley.5
Alexander Isak: Got in some good positions but couldn't find the net. Unlucky not to get a penalty when his shirt was pulled by Timber.5
Liverpool substitutes:
Szoboszlai (on 59, Nyoni):Back after a spell on the sidelines.6
Ngumoha (on 67, Gakpo):Didn't get on the ball as much as he would have liked.5
Munoz (on 82, Araujo):Tried to make an impact with his pace.
Koumas (on 82, Wirtz):Thrown on to add some energy.
Tsimikas (on 82, Kerkez):Didn't have much luck down the left.
Subs not used:Mamardashvili, Gomez, Endo, Gravenberch.
