From an Arsenal point of view, they’ll be happy. It’s a step forward, getting a point here.
“The question marks over the goalkeeper will subside slightly, he had a really good game – particularly second half. The question remains up top, have they got a centre-forward who will take them to the title?
“But [Mikel Arteta] will be proud of coming to this very difficult place, particularly where they were last season. They’re where they want to be, they want to be in the title race again and they’re on track to do that.”
“Arsenal will be pleased coming away to Anfield and getting a point. They’ve only got a point from their last two away games here and at Aston Villa, but I’ve been really impressed with them in both.
“At times they lost the ball in dangerous positions, but they’ve got those two centre-backs and Rice in front, and they’re very difficult to penetrate.
“Right now, they’re the best team defensively in the league. There’s a long way to go, but they’re going to be right in the race.”
