We asked for your thoughts after Sunday's Premier League game between Liverpool and Arsenal.

Here are some of your comments:

Liverpool fans

Rob: Excellent display after a nervous start. We looked competitive and dominant so plenty of reasons to be cheerful. Stonewall penalty not even looked at, which is another VAR disgrace. Also, the nonsense about a "defensive masterclass" from Arsenal - no, they parked the bus and Liverpool just lacked a finishing touch. Besides, Arsenal could and maybe should have been 3-1 down at half-time.

Paul: Penalty aside - it was a day for experienced heads and, sadly, Trey Nyoni, Rio Ngumoha and Lewis Koumas are just not good enough. A learning lesson.

Faisal: Very good, based on a well-executed strategy. Somewhat unlucky not to get away with at least a draw from this match, but overall were the better side. It will be a two-horse battle between Arsenal and Liverpool, as Manchester City will be heavily penalised after their appeal.

Ian: Team has too many non-aggressive, weak players. Isak should be throwing his arms in the air after that shirt pull. Winners have controlled aggression. This is not a trophy-winning team.

Arsenal fans

Charles: Arsenal showed maturity, a strong winning mentality and composure. Shoutout to Arteta and the technical team - this is the kind of character to win big matches and titles. What a period to be an Arsenal fan.

Vince: Another monster defensive performance. It's always nail-biting when Arsenal score early, because you know that hands all the attacking impetus to the opposition. But Gabriel, Konsa, Timber and Calafiori were simply magnificent, repelling all that was thrown at them. Was that a kitchen sink I saw?

Dapo: 1-0 to the Arsenal... It was a gritty encounter but Arsenal showed resilience in the face of it. Anfield away wins don't come easily.

Kofi: It was a good performance and a good win, but we're lucky not to have conceded a penalty. The players have to be aware of unnecessary actions such as time-wasting and getting involved in a brawl they did not start but that results in yellow cards.
