🚨 CRAVEN CHAOS: Liverpool’s Title Hopes Rocked After Humiliating 3-2 Defeat to Fulham – Player Ratings Paint a Grim Picture!
Fans fuming as defensive errors, poor decision-making and lack of intensity cost the Reds dearly.
Liverpool’s unbeaten Premier League run is over. A 26-game streak crushed by a clinical Fulham side that took full advantage of Liverpool’s lethargy and chaos in a shambolic first half. Despite a thunderbolt from Alexis Mac Allister and a well-taken goal by Luis Diaz, the Reds fell 3-2—and it could’ve been worse.
Player-by-Player Analysis
Alisson Becker – 6
Not at fault for the goals, but fans expected him to command his area better. Saved Liverpool from further embarrassment with a late stop.
Ibrahima Konaté – 3
A nightmare. Gifted Fulham a chance early with a clumsy error, was poor in positioning and reactive rather than proactive. Looked completely rattled. Subbed off before the hour mark.
Virgil van Dijk – 5
Not the worst, but that says little. Misjudged the flight of the ball for Fulham’s third, and failed to inspire or stabilize the backline. Slightly better after the break, but not enough.
Andy Robertson – 5
His careless inside pass led directly to Fulham’s second goal. Shaky under pressure. Tried to make amends going forward in the second half but was nowhere near his best. Carragher called it a “nightmare performance” live on air.
Ryan Gravenberch – 5
Invisible in the first half, improved only marginally. Ended the game filling in defensively, but fans still feel he lacks composure and impact in midfield.
Alexis Mac Allister – 6
The lone bright spot. His stunning goal from outside the box was one for the highlight reels, but he couldn’t pull the team out of their spiral. Still kept fighting.
Mohamed Salah – 5
Plenty of energy, but no end product. Missed a golden opportunity when Diaz squared the ball to him. Crosses looked dangerous late on, but his influence was minimal.
Diogo Jota – 5
Tried to make things happen but was starved of service. Forced a good save from Leno after the break but faded quickly. Subbed.
Luis Diaz (sub, 55 min) – 7
Instant impact. Direct, aggressive, and scored with precision. Looked like the only player trying to drag Liverpool back into the game. Why didn’t he start?

What This Means for the Title Race
Arne Slot’s men now require 11 points from 7 matches to stay in the title hunt. But with Manchester City relentless and Arsenal resurgent, there’s no room for error. The pressure is mounting—and fast.

Fan Reactions: “The Elephant in the Room”
The Liverpool faithful didn’t hold back online. Themes from fan comments:
Robertson’s form: “He’s been off it all season. We can’t ignore it anymore.”
Van Dijk’s decline: “Not the rock he once was.”
Slot’s tactics: “Confusing choices. Why did Diaz not start?”
Urgency missing: “Where was the hunger to win? This is a title race!”
