Liverpool 1 - 0 Fulham - PL Player Ratings
Alisson Becker – 8.0
Had to make an early save as Fulham started brightly, yet much of the first half was about receiving and recycling possession. Had little to do through much of the second period as control seemed more important to Liverpool. Needed to stay strong...
The rarer something is, the more valuable it becomes. It’s simple supply and demand, as any student of GSCE Economics – I got an A, #humblebrag – can tell you. A copy of Northern Soul belter ‘Do I Love You (Indeed I Do)’ by Frank Wilson once sold for over £100,000 as there are...
Virgil van Dijk believes Liverpool attacker Mohamed Salah doesn’t get the wider credit his record-breaking exploits deserve.
The Egyptian moved level with Robbie Fowler, joint sixth on the club’s all-time list of scorers with 183 goals, when he turned home what proved to be the winner in Saturday’s 3-2 victory over Nottingham Forest.
Salah has reached...
Liverpool hasn’t had the easiest time in the last few years. The talented base that Jürgen Klopp built has begun to show their age and the team has been augmented with very young players. The team now has an uneven balance between the experienced and the rookies.
That doesn’t mean that Liverpool has lost any...
Alisson Becker - 7.0
Shook off whatever issues he had before the weekend, in order to resume his duties in goal. Had to make some smart saves through the opening period as Leeds were able to break away too often. He could do little to stop Leeds's early second-half goal, as Ibou allowed a free...
It’s hard to know which of the two things was more surprising in all truth. The fact Liverpool got another penalty this season or Mo Salah missing a second consecutive one. He should also have had another late on after Gabriel’s common assault, but the less we say about the officiating in this game...
What a time to be alive. No-one, whatever they actually claim could have predicted what was to come on a Sunday afternoon that left us with sore heads on a Monday morning. It’s great to be able to say it - Liverpool embarrassed, humiliated and annihilated Manchester United. Seven-Nil still sounds incredible to be...

Mohamed Salah
This adaptation of our style is ever increasing the level of our elite assets, with our Egyptian King looking back to his deadliest best. 22 goals in an off season isn’t bad at the start of March, and you feel that he...

Alisson Becker - 9.0
Had such little work to do, with the reds ramping up as the game progressed. Was smart in possession and dealt with the couple of half chances that came his way. I’m rating him high, as it’s that kind of result.
Trent Alexander...
A hangover, Real Madrid still playing on their minds etc etc. Whichever way you dress it up or whatever excuses could be made, this was a terrible game of football. Crystal Palace’s own struggles aside, it’s hard to believe this was a team who are supposed to be chasing champions league football and as...
