Welbeck must surely have one of the worst conversion rates of strikers in the PL. Feel like I've been watching him play forever and only seen him score that goal where he went around the Utd keeper. We should have kept him and saved the £70 million we spent on Pepe as they're the same player. He never changes does he? Weird player. Brilliant footballer in some respects, works hard, physical, presses well, links play but also seems incapable of cleanly striking the football on target. I can remember him scoring but one was that header vs Leicester and all the rest were inelegant awkward bundled/shins/miskicks/deflections. It's like he doesn't do shooting practice.

I remember him scoring a hat trick once with Henry-esque goals in the Champions League I think? That was soon after he joined Arsenal and got us all excited for a bit.

His first hand in the premier league was a rasping shot right into the top corner from about 30 yards.
He used to love the attempted chipped finish. Finishing always a big issue for him.

I very much enjoy one of the biggest Arsenal fan accounts on Twitter not being able to change his handle from a Wellbeck tribute.

Always a big fan of Welbz. Ruined by injuries at Arsenal but still have some fond memories of him.

Could’ve been 4 up after 20 minutes. Been shite for the last 70. Meh.

Welbeck always seemed to be better at finishing instinctively than if he had time to think about, and subsequently bottle a chance.

Seems odd that Klopp has gone heavy up front when he has such weakness in centre mid. But what do I know.

Great goal. Hope that amps up the nerves among the Liverpool defenders.

Couldn't ask for a better start from both teams, Arsenal getting a very good goal and Liverpool's defending being as woeful as it's been for a lot of this season.

Martinelli tripped himself up there and then got Diaz booked by pretending to be injured.

At least one surely. Think we'll need to score three to win today.

Trent really is shocking at defending this season. He doesn't even bother with it anymore.

Gaps all over the place for Arsenal to take advantage of.

Wow, seen penalites given for far less than that.

That sets the bar for 'not a foul' in this match, you could use forearms to shove someone over and accidentally clip their face. Have at it I guess.

That was very similar to the red Emerson got against Arsenal. Probably worse.

For starters, Martinelli managed to kick a football.

Weak. Been sitting back too much since the goal.
