Arsenal fans make outlandish claims on social media that Liverpool overwatered Anfield's pitch 'on purpose' to slow down the Gunners... as they insist the playing surface was 'DANGEROUS' in Saturday's 1-1 draw

Arsenal fans have outlandishly claimed on social media that the Anfield pitch had been intentionally overwatered by Liverpool prior to their 1-1 draw on Saturday.

Heading into the game, both sides had the potential to go top of the Premier League if they secured three points.

Mikel Arteta's side seized the initiative early, with Gabriel firing the visitors into the lead just three minutes from kick-off after heading home from a Martin Odegaard free kick.

Liverpool hit back before the interval, with Mohamed Salah netting his 16th goal of the season in all competitions to draw level.
