Arsenal were winning 2-1 at the time goal a second Luka Milivojevic penalty drew level and the points were shared.
And after the game, Liverpool legend Souness asked Mesut Ozil showed more passion when being substituted than he did during the time he was on the pitch.
"I still think they are much the same, I think typified by Ozil," said Souness of Arsenal.
"To be fair, Ozil showed a great deal of passion when he was subbed today, that's the most I've ever seen him show in a game of football.
"There's no good showing petulance like that, you're the captain.
"When you're on the pitch, show courage to get on the ball when you're not dominating, show real passion.
"Maybe you're not built for it, but certainly make an attempt.
"Make a few challenges, win the ball back for your team – he does not do that.
"I'm sorry to harp on me, but I think it's a good thing that you should have such influence."
