    HT: Liverpool 0-1 Fulham

    You could see it from the first minute that Fulham had no fear - they've got attack minded players. They've got a great defensive record but they needed to add something to it - the manager has told them to believe in themselves and they're believing the manager.

    Well done Fulham, but it's also a lot to do with them playing 'a Liverpool', not 'the Liverpool'.

    It's been coming, there's no doubt it's been coming. Time and again they've got into good areas - Mario Lamina has decided 'you know what I won't bother passing this, I'll just lash it into the bottom corner'.

    Mo Salah has got his back to the player there and he's got to be stronger, he's basically been shoved off the ball. He loses it and it's a great hit at power, low, into the bottom corner into the side netting and that is a huge goal at the Kop end just before half time.

    The half-time whistle goes and Fulham deservedly lead at Anfield - even if it came with almost the last kick.

    Mario Lemina

    It's been coming.

    Andy Robertson heads Fulham's free-kick to Mohamed Salah on the edge of the box. Salah dawdles instead of booting it away and Mario Lemina takes the ball off him, takes a couple of touches to compose himself and then drills a low shot past Alisson.

    The corner comes to nothing but then Xherdan Shaqiri commits a foul. Liverpool are penned in.

    Another decent Fulham move as Ivan Cavaleiro can't quite find a team-mate in the box with a pass. The visitors win a corner.

    Harrison Reed curls this cross in but a stretching Tosin Adarabioyo can't reach it at the back post.

    Lazy as Diogo Jota kicks out at Mario Lemina as he drifts past him. Jota is booked.

    Not a bad effort from Xherdan Shqiri as he has a crack from this long-ranger. It's just over though, landing on the roof of the net and clipping the stanchion.

    Fulham's Kenny Tete is booked for fouling Diogo Jota and Liverpool have a free-kick 30 yards out.

    This has got the intensity of a 2nd round Carabao Cup tie. If we’ve given up on the top six I’d rather Klopp just play the kids for the rest of the season coz this is horrendous.

    RE [14:10] - '26, 46, 47, 76' - thought these were the ages of Liverpool's back four, which would help explain why they can't currently keep a clean sheet at home.

    Ademola Lookman has Neco Williams on toast again as he races onto a ball from the haflway line. Lookman cuts inside but Williams has recovered in time to block his shot.

    A couple of nice give-and-goes from Naby Keita on the edge of the box but he can't find Xherdan Shaqiri.

    Fulham striker Josh Maja has to run to the side of the pitch to change his shorts. Presumably his other ones were ripped. No crowd here to cheer that sadly.

    Thumbs up if you think Fulham's back four (Aina, Adarabioyo, Andersen, Tete) is better than Liverpool's back four (Williams x 2, Phillips, Robertson).

    Thumbs down if you'd prefer Liverpool's defence.

    Fulham are getting plenty of joy up front. Now Ivan Cavaleiro races onto a long ball and beats Nat Phillips but shoots over the bar.

    Brave goalkeeping by Liverpool's Alisson to deny Josh Maja. He's off his line quickly to smother the Fulham forward.

    Wonder if Jurgen Klopp and Sam Allardyce have a WhatsApp group where they moan about fixture scheduling.
