Notes

  • - Andryi Arshavin scored four of Gunners' goals. The last time a player scored four goals vs Liverpool in the league at Anfield was on 7th December 1946 when Dennis Westcott scored four for Wolves in a 5-1 victory.
    - Arshavin was proud of his achievement, but also praised the Liverpool fans: "It was typical English football, with a high tempo, good skill, good chances and an amazing atmosphere at Anfield. I must say that with the crowd there, it’s like you’re 11 men playing against one big family. It’s not like their supporters have just come to watch the team, it’s as if you are playing them as well!"
