The revelation that Liverpool manager Arne Slot is “fearing the worst” for Conor Bradley following a nasty twist of his knee has only added an even darker cloud over the actions of Arsenal’s Gabriel Martinelli, which were roundly branded as “disgraceful.”

As the Gunners chased after a winner with increasing urgency, Bradley halted play by tumbling to the turf on the touchline and clutching his knee. Martinelli had little sympathy.
