For a while Brighton looked as if they could be entering the title conversation.
Fabian Hurzeler, the youngest permanent Premier League manager ever at the age of 31, has carried on the excellent work of his predecessors and has them dreaming of even more.
They fully merited their lead when Danny Welbeck knocked Kaoru Mitoma’s cross onto summer signing Kadioglu, who scored his first goal in English football.
They had a glorious opportunity to double their lead when Jack Hinshelwood sent Rutter through but he shot straight at Kelleher.
But as Liverpool improved in the second half, Brighton offered less going forward – and only managed one effort on target after the break.

Brighton boss Fabian Hurzeler speaking to BBC Match of the Day after today's loss: "There was a big chance today. If we score the second goal, or we could have even got a third or fourth, in the first half then it is a different game.
"Then of course they have individual quality. They scored out of nowhere with a cross, they scored with a shot from outside the box. In this league there are top quality players.
"We have to be at the maximum and today we were not for 90 minutes. Then you can't win the game."
On goalscorer Ferdi Kadioglu: "He's a very flexible players. He gives us good crosses, good shots, he can run a lot. He needs a little bit more time to adapt to the intensity but he's getting there step-by-step. He is a great character, he loves to learn, he loves to improve and when he shows this attitude then I'm sure long-term he will be a very important player for us."

Chris Sutton is making predictions for all 380 Premier League matches this season, against a variety of guests.
For week 10 he takes on The Piano TV series winner Brad Kella.
Sutton's prediction: 2-0
I am at Anfield with Ian Dennis on Saturday to cover this game for BBC Radio 5 Live and I am looking forward to it.
It has not been a great week for Brighton, who threw victory away against Wolves last weekend, conceding a 93rd-minute equaliser, then lost at home to Liverpool in the Carabao Cup in midweek.
Going to Anfield will be even harder for them. Liverpool dropped points against Arsenal in their last league game, but I can't see that happening here - Brighton will cause them problems but they can't afford to slip up, and they won't.
