Yeah Klopp was basically just having fun out there, subbing in more kids while Emery was like a man drowning :P 

Had he not subbed off Özil I think we would've won it. Doesn't make much difference though other than Emery exposed himself again. 

Yeah, the contrast between the two managers was actually crazy. Arsenal score, Klopp laughing. Liverpool score, Emery looking like he'd rather be anywhere else.

Ozil definitely was the one player on the pitch clearly more talented than anyone else, regardless of his current form or situation at the club. Either way, it's not like this performance will change his position there, will it? To be honest, I'm surprised Emery was willing to field him at all.

It's a mess right now. I'm certain Emery simply tried to throw him under the bus. He knows Özil lacks match sharpness so he expected him to fail and get all the critizism. So Emery could hide behind his players again, the coward he is. 

How he treats Özil is very similar to him and Ben Arfa at PSG. In fact, everything happening at Arsenal right now is what happened at other clubs he's managed. Too bad I didn't do my research on Emery and actually had faith in him being a good tactician.
