ANFIELD ALARM: Liverpool Hit With Three Brutal 4/10 Ratings After Fulham Frustration – Szoboszlai’s Concerning Display Puts One of the Reds’ Biggest Names Under Immediate Scrutiny Dominik Szoboszlai.
Liverpool’s unbeaten start under Andoni Iraola continued on Saturday, but the mood around Anfield was anything but positive after a dismal 0-0 draw with Fulham.The Reds struggled for rhythm, creativity and control for long stretches, producing one of their poorest attacking performances of the early season.Victor Munoz came closest to scoring when his header forced a save from Bernd Leno, while Jeremy Jacquet prevented Fulham from taking the lead with a vital goal-line clearance.
The result means Liverpool remain unbeaten under Iraola, but they have now dropped points in three of their first four Premier League matches.ALISSON BECKER — 6Alisson endured one alarming moment in the first half when a poor pass put Ryan Gravenberch under unnecessary pressure and almost led to a penalty situation.Aside from that, the goalkeeper was generally dependable.His handling was secure, and he produced a useful late save to deny King.It was not his best afternoon, but he recovered well from the early mistake.RONALD ARAUJO — 6Araujo did not look as comfortable as he had in previous matches.
Fulham’s pace down Liverpool’s right side caused him problems, and he struggled to offer consistent quality with his deliveries when moving forward.Still, he kept competing and avoided making any decisive defensive error before being substituted.It was a solid rather than convincing display.JEREMY JACQUET — 6Jacquet produced two of Liverpool’s most important defensive moments.His goal-line clearance rescued Alisson, while another last-ditch intervention stopped Gonzalo Garcia from breaking through before half-time.He faded slightly as the match progressed, but his interventions prevented the afternoon from becoming even worse.Without him, Liverpool could easily have lost.VIRGIL VAN DIJK — 6Van Dijk looked unusually unsettled at times.Liverpool’s defensive structure lacked cohesion, forcing the captain to step out of the back line on several occasions to clean up problems around him.He was not directly responsible for any major Fulham chance, but the overall lack of control in defense clearly frustrated him.
Liverpool rarely looked fully organized.KOSTAS TSIMIKAS — 4Tsimikas looked exactly like a player making his first Premier League start in 16 months.The Greek defender appeared rusty, struggled for timing and offered very little going forward.Fulham were able to attack his side with confidence, and Liverpool gained more balance after he was replaced at half-time.A difficult return to league action.DOMINIK SZOBOSZLAI — 4This was one of Szoboszlai’s more concerning performances.There were occasional bursts of his usual energy, but they were too infrequent.For most of the match, he looked surprisingly passive and struggled to influence the tempo.
He did at least test Leno with a second-half effort, but Liverpool needed far more from one of their most important midfielders.RYAN GRAVENBERCH — 4Gravenberch looked uncomfortable from the opening stages.He often appeared uncertain about his positioning and was bypassed far too easily when Fulham moved through midfield.His lack of sharpness contributed to Liverpool’s inability to control the center of the pitch.It was a worrying afternoon and little surprise when he was replaced on the hour.
VICTOR MUNOZ — 6Munoz offered Liverpool one of their more dangerous attacking outlets.His pace caused problems down the right, and he produced the Reds’ clearest chance when his header forced a good save from Leno.He was not consistently involved, but he at least carried genuine attacking threat.That was more than could be said for several teammates.FLORIAN WIRTZ — 5Wirtz showed flashes of quality without ever taking control.He sent a couple of efforts wide and repeatedly found promising positions, but his final pass was too often inaccurate.
There were too many moments when something nearly happened.Liverpool need more than nearly.The German international remains dangerous, but this was a frustratingly incomplete display.BRADLEY BARCOLA — 6Barcola created a good opportunity for Alexander Isak and also contributed with one strong defensive tackle.However, he did not consistently threaten Fulham’s back line.After the break, he worked himself into a promising position but chose not to shoot when the opportunity appeared.That decision summed up Liverpool’s hesitation in attack.
ALEXANDER ISAK — 5Isak struggled to impose himself.He dragged one first-half effort wide and created one opportunity after the interval, but large parts of the match passed without him becoming involved.May you likeHISTORY WITHIN REACH: Josh Allen Has a Chance to Climb an Elite NFL List – But Not in the Way Bills Fans Might Expect (rr)ARAUJO TRANSFER TWIST: Barcelona Star’s Permanent Move Now Hinges on One Key Liverpool Development – The Deal Could Turn on What Happens at Anfield Next (rr)EARLY RETURN PUSH: JJ Wetherholt Is Fighting to Rejoin the Cardinals Sooner Than Expected – St.
Louis May Soon Face a Decision It Didn’t Expect Yet (rr)His movement and intensity were below the standards he has recently set.Liverpool’s lack of creativity did not help, but Isak also needed to demand more of the ball.SUBSTITUTES PROVIDED SOME IMPROVEMENTMilos Kerkez replaced Tsimikas at half-time and immediately gave Liverpool more balance on the left.Alexis Mac Allister brought greater urgency after replacing Gravenberch, while Cody Gakpo added more intensity in attack.Jeremie Frimpong also worked through a difficult spell at right-back.Rio Ngumoha, however, struggled to make much impact after coming on.The changes improved Liverpool without completely changing the game.A PERFORMANCE IRAOLA WILL WANT TO FORGETLiverpool avoided defeat, but there was very little else to celebrate.
The passing was loose.The midfield lacked authority.The attack repeatedly broke down before reaching Fulham’s penalty area.Most concerningly, the performance never really developed any momentum despite the advantage of playing at Anfield.Iraola’s unbeaten start remains intact, but three dropped-point performances in four league matches will already be raising questions.The Reds have enough talent to be far better than this.Against Fulham, they simply never showed it.ReportComments 0No comments yet.Posting asGuestChange nameWrite a comment…Post commentSCARY WALKER EXIT: Jordan Walker Leaves Cardinals Game in a Frightening Moment – St. Louis Avoids the Worst-Case News After an Injury Scare That Had Fans Holding Their Breath (rr)SCARY WALKER EXIT: Jordan Walker Leaves Cardinals Game in a Frightening Moment – St. Louis Avoids the Worst-Case News After an Injury Scare That Had Fans Holding Their Breath (rr) Posted September 12, 2026IMAGE: St. Louis Cardinals right fielder Jordan Walker (18) runs to third against the Pittsburgh Pirates during the fourth inning at Busch Stadium. / Jeff Le / Imagn Images Jordan Walker gave St. Louis Cardinals fans a brief scare Friday night, but the early signs surrounding his ankle appear encouraging.
