Liverpool 1-1 West Ham
Aaron Cresswell is back by the way.
Liverpool 1-1 West Ham

Tom: At babyboomer (18:31 GMT). If a keeper stood in the middle of their goal for every penalty then I'm pretty sure it wouldn't take long until that plan backfired. Think about it...
Liverpool 1-1 West Ham
Aaron Cresswell is down holding his groin and he needs treatment. He loses the ball to Trent Alexander-Arnold and then slips as he tries to win the ball back. Can he continue?
Liverpool 1-1 West Ham
Fifteen goals is the most Liverpool have conceded after seven league matches in a season since 1964-65. They were also defending champions that season.
Liverpool 1-1 West Ham
It's a bit end to end at the moment and not in a good way. No real pattern.
Liverpool 1-1 West Ham
I'm noticing a few beards in this game. I wonder if Opta do stats for the beardiest Premier League game ever.

Iain Lindley: Time for football to take the lead from ice hockey’s book - possible to stick with the original decision (penalty) and *also* to book Salah for clear embellishment.
Liverpool 1-1 West Ham

Captain Midknyte: Do people forget that to play football you need to defend as well as attack? Can’t slate WHU for regrouping and defending with more than four players.
Liverpool 1-1 West Ham
Liverpool are passing the ball round. Can they find a way through? No.
Liverpool 1-1 West Ham
West Ham play their way out from the back... but then end up playing their way back to the keeper again. A bit pointless really.
Liverpool 1-1 West Ham
Arthur Masuaku and Pablo Fornals try to link up again as they did for West Ham's goal. AM crosses to PF who isn't really in control of it and flicks a shot towards goal which Alisson saves.
Liverpool 1-1 West Ham
Trent Alexander-Arnold lifts in a free-kick which Nathaniel Phillips flicks towards goal with his head. West Ham keeper Lukasz Fabianski deals with it.
Liverpool 1-1 West Ham
Georginio Wijnaldum glides past Declan Rice, who clips his ankles. Yellow card to the former Irishman.
Liverpool 1-1 West Ham
Lukasz Fabianski is off his line quickly to stop Trent Alexander-Arnold's pass finding Roberto Firmino.

Neither keeper made a save in that first half.

The second half begins.

Adam Leatherbarrow: Disgruntled United fan here - can the opposition teams please stop fouling us/handling the ball in the box? I'm tired of us getting penalties for legitimate reasons. Well I'm certainly tired of all the whinging and moaning from fans of other teams, that's for sure.
