Liverpool Forgot We're The Champions (Robbie) | Liverpool 0-1 Arsenal

Arsenal fans in North America, AFTV is coming to you. We're heading to Toronto, LA, New York and Las Vegas. So sign up now to be first in line for tickets. Can't wait. Hi, welcome to AFTV. I've got Robbie with me after a 1-0 win against Liverpool at... And filled. And filled. First of all, we've got to say happy birthday going out to Cecil G. It's his birthday today. What a present. What a perfect birthday present. I told you that Arsenal were going to win this for you, man. So, happy birthday going out to you. Secondly, to all the Liverpool fans, we haven't got a European Cup. Yeah, fine. Yeah, before you ask. But we got three points today. Three big points, right? They're in a pocket. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't know what I'm talking about. Yeah, pocketed, AGT, yeah, FJ, pocketed, right, no, great win for Arsenal, man, great away win, got the early goal, Kai Havertz, I said it during the week, I said he's the type of guy that... He's been so poor, but he turns up for big games. I said that in some of my previews. People were laughing at me, cussing me, even Arsenal fans. I'm like, study this guy. He does. He turns up in his big games. Even though at the start of the game, I was thinking, maybe we go with Jorginho for this one. But when we saw him starting, we're like, okay, fair enough. Because I know he can turn up with those. Big goal from him. He started the game really, really well for about the first... 15, 20 minutes, I thought we was on top. Then after that, we had to weather a storm. They really came at us, you know what I mean? Not possession. They had a lot of possession. They hit the post. You know what I mean? McAllister had that. I think that was their best chance for the game. That McAllister header. But then I think after that, the second half, we were the better team again. Defended brilliantly. And Zollis had that great shot. If it weren't for that one save by Alisson, it would have been 2-0. Great save. Liverpool didn't have a shot on target in the game. I think that's the most glaring stat. I think when we spoke to HGT all weekend, he said, what makes you so confident, Robbie? What makes us so confident? Your win today. Told him, we've got the best defence, I think, in Europe. Right? When you've got that Raheem goal, you've got Timber. Right, Ezri Konsa, who's been absolutely brilliant. You've got Gabriel, you've got Calafiori. That back four. He didn't say Saliba. You said what he played today. Saliba's not even here. I mean, listen, Ezri Konsa has been brilliant. You know what I mean? He's come in. He's formed an unbelievable partnership with Gabriel. Those two have been solid. The midfield was good. It was a very, very good performance by Arsenal. You could see what it meant to the fans at the end of it. We haven't won here since 2012, man. It seems like forever. But we've got the win that we deserve today. I don't think Liverpool deserve to get a point out of that game in the end. Because I thought in the second half we were the better team. So it's a big, big win for us. We've got nine points above Liverpool now. And we go back to the top of the table. That's a big, big win, especially with City dropping points yesterday. That's what makes it even bigger. I think the weekend results, a lot of pressure on Arsenal. The only game being played today on Sunday was Arsenal. Exactly, all eyes on Arsenal. I will say, I saw a lot of Liverpool fans saying, I'll wait till you see Isak, you'll be seeing this. Interesting. I didn't see this at all. I didn't see this, unless he was fuming a lift. Gift. You know what I mean? He must have been fuming a lift, right? Because I didn't see this at all. Listen, we locked off their front three. Barcola would like, you know... Think of it, how much money these guys cost, man. He cost, what, £125 million. Barcola's £120 million. That's about, in them three players alone, that's about £350 million plus on the pitch. But we nullified them, you know what I mean? And that was good, you know what I mean? So, you know, they're putting in plenty of crosses in the first half. We dealt with that. And I just think, listen, it was a very good game. I think if you're a neutral and you're watching that game, it's a very exciting, very entertaining game. But I think we deserve to win it, definitely. And it's not an easy place to come to, as we all know. And, you know, they beat Chelsea. You know what I mean? I mean, they, they, they. Chelsea reserves. But to be fair, they had a weaker team than Chelsea. They beat Chelsea. They beat Brighton last week. They're full of confidence. This is a big win. Big, big win. I need to ask you, because you seem to... And forgive me for going back. No, remind me not to do this when I speak to the tie, but Fleetwood was painful. It was a long journey. All of us travelling back, very angry. But you see a performance like today and you think, you either think, well, where was this at Fleetwood? Or you say, you know what, I don't care. Where do you stand? The other night, when we were driving back, I said, this is a different game to Fleetwood. A completely different game. You know what I mean? Fleetwood was almost like, we had so much of the ball in there. It was almost like a training game. Fleetwood deserved to win. We didn't show the urgency that was required to win that game and we went out. But we all said on the way home. If you could choose one to win, the Fleetwood game or this, and listen, we all want to win both. But if we're going to lose one, all right, we'll take that. As long as you come to Anfield now, you've got to show us something, arsehole. You've got to show us something. You've got to come away from this game with something. And they've done that. And now, we're not talking about Fleetwood. We're talking about us now, top of the league. Is it a statement win? It's a statement win. They forgot we were champions. I think a lot of Liverpool fans coming down here. I remember FJ, he's over there. We was doing a preview and I said to him, I go, the champions are coming to town. He said, coming to town. He was shocked. He was like, he forgot. We are the champions. We are the champions. That's what makes it a little bit different. Even today, coming here, we know we've got a good side. We know it's a tough place to come for. We've got lots of respect for them because we know they're a great side. But we're coming here as the champions. It ain't like back in the day when we were coming here and we're thinking, yeah, you know what, I'll take a draw right now and all that. We were all coming here saying we don't really want a draw. No, no, you don't want to win, yeah. We want three points. We know we're good enough to win here. And it's a massive win. And Lee said it when we was coming up in, and it was a great bus, by the way. Big up, Jason. Right? When we was coming up here, Lee said it. Lee said, listen. About time we put down some statements, man. You know what I mean? We go to these places, you know, when they were champions, they'll go like Emirates win, they'll go Old Trafford win, they'll go, you know, Etihad win. We didn't really do that last year. So to come here and win, that's a big statement. And we've been some hard places away from home now this season. Went to Bayern, got a very credible draw, right? I thought we played brilliant. Went to Villa Park, got that win. Here, you know what I mean? Away at Forest, tough. We've literally been on the road the whole season. Most of our games have been on the road. Going to Prague soon. Prague on Tuesday. So, listen, it's a fantastic win today. And I think all the fans... The referee. To be fair, the referee was very busy. He mentioned the European Cups. The European Cups. The European Cups. That is their rebuttal. The European Cup don't win you this game, does it? Yeah, exactly. I mean, if you've got six European Cups, you should have walked it then, eh? Right? Listen, they lost the game fair and square. They didn't have a shot on target. Arsenal deserve to win this game today, right? So, great win for the Arsenal. Great win. Happy birthday, man. Thank you very much. Happy birthday, and you're going to enjoy this one, right? Amazing. What a day. Thank you, Arsenal. Arsenal fans in North America, AFTV is coming to you.
