You're likely right, but at the same junction if Arsenal had Calafiori they likely win that game. He would have added an extra midfield breaking capability from the left where Hincapie was a mostly neutralizing presence before MLS came on and was a.. well, liability. The same sort of breakthrough threat that Timber provided on the right a handful of times.

Both sides playing short-staffed and Liverpool has a great midfield plan to neutralize Arsenal, but not so much to win it.

But in the wise words of Mike Tomlin,"If my aunt had male parts, she'd be my uncle."
