Liverpool got so many things wrong against Fulham and a draw was probably a fair result.
The Reds are nine games unbeaten, but back-to-back draws highlight that things are not going as swimmingly as they could be.
They thought they had got the win against Fulham after scoring in the 94th minute, but Harrison Reed’s screamer three minutes later meant the points were shared.

Why won’t Liverpool follow Man United’s lead and SACK Arne Slot?

Overall, it was a very disappointing display from Liverpool that did not get better until towards the end, with there being a key reason for this.
One player came off the bench to prove to Arne Slot why he should be starting more games, with this something that has to be put right ahead of Arsenal on Thursday.
Jeremie Frimpong impressed again for Liverpool
The Reds’ new signings are all starting to find their feet now, with Jeremie Frimpong, arguably, the best of the lot at this moment in time.
Despite being signed as a right-back, he has been used as a winger due to his attacking prowess, and it has worked to great effect too.

He had been starting the last few, but had to make do with a cameo off the bench against Fulham, but he did prove to Slot why he made an error not playing him from the get-go.
Frimpong was lively down the right and even set up yet another goal, with the Dutchman now being integral to creating three in four games.
His ‘crazy’ pace and directness are proving to be a real problem for defenders and he is starting to get a good understanding with the players around him.
The width he provides is also vital as when he is not in the team, Liverpool are too narrow and predictable, which is why Fulham managed them so comfortably.

Liverpool fans will be going into this one very pessimistic, but they do not really have much pressure on them at all so they should go out and try and produce an upset.
If that is going to happen, though, then Frimpong has to start as the forward line for the Reds was not creative enough against Fulham, and the Dutchman will add exactly that.
No matter how good a team they are defensively, someone of his speed will always cause them problems, with his cutbacks something that could give Liverpool some joy down that side.
Not many are expecting them to win, but they could if Frimpong shows up again, with the full-back-turned-winger now essential to Slot’s team.
