Everyone rips Arsenal, Wenger as Liverpool runs riot at Anfield
(Warning: Story contains coarse language)
Liverpool ran rampant in the opening half of Sunday's marquee clash against Arsenal at Anfield, as the Reds' blistering attack shredded Arsene Wenger's insipid side.
Roberto Firmino opened the scoring with a glancing header, and when Sadio Mane gave the home side a 2-0 lead, Twitter ripped into both Wenger and his team.
Savage.

No one cares. This is our 3rd game. Manager is finished.
Three, maybe four, players on the pitch don't even want to be at the club, so that doesn't help (Sanchez, Ox, Ozil and Bellerin)

Arsene Wenger, spare us another season of this shit and just delete your Arsenal career mode save.

Gary Neville: "It's a well-told story that I'm not a Liverpool fan, but this Arsenal side deserves a battering".

Some, of course, gave credit to Liverpool for the dominant 45-minute showing, with Mane garnering plenty of praise after his slick tally.
Half Mané half amazing

Sadio Mane: Has scored 4 Premier League goals vs Arsenal; against no team has he scored more. Could be a long afternoon for the Gunners...

It only got worse for Wenger and Co., as Liverpool added two more tallies to cap off a dominant victory.
