Liverpool came from behind twice to draw 2-2 at home against Fulham, with Antonee Robinson the star of the show at Anfield.
The USA international assisted Andreas Pereira and Rodrigo Munez as Robinson caused havoc for the Reds down the left-hand side, with Trent Alexander-Arnold slammed by Damien Delaney for his Liverpool performance.
With Robinson linked with a move to Liverpool as a potential replacement for Andy Robertson, the former Everton defender more than gave a good account for himself at Anfield, with Chris Sutton also praising the Fulham fullback for his performance on Merseyside.
And Robinson has now seemingly hinted that he wants to join Liverpool after some activity on social media.

Robinson uploaded a post-match Instagram post after Fulham’s draw with Liverpool, with teammates and fans leaving comments for the 27-year-old defender after an exceptional performance at Anfield with the Cottagers.
Yet eagle-eyed Liverpool fans noticed that Robinson had liked posts from Liverpool fans urging the defender to make the move to Arne Slot’s side, with one liked comment saying: “Anfield suits you,” whilst the USA international also reacted to a Red fan saying: “Sign for us fella.”
With Andy Robertson getting sent off early for Liverpool despite being praised by Slot, Robinson passed his potential dress rehearsal for the Anfield side with flying colours, with fans and pundits impressed by what they saw from the Milton Keynes-born talent.

Robinson showed exactly why Liverpool need to sign him next summer
Liverpool are interested in signing a left-back heading into 2025, with Robertson’s incredible tenure in the position finally coming to an end with Kostas Tsimikas not having the fitness levels to fully replace the Scottish international.
Yet Red supporters saw on Saturday why Robinson is the perfect defender to take on the mantle that will be left by Robertson one day, with the USA international the best player on the pitch at Anfield this weekend by some distance.
Indeed, Robinson himself seems to back himself as a Liverpool player, and with the Reds likely to spend big on a new left-back in 2025, the Fulham fullback is the perfect signing for Slot’s team next year.
