AI summary
Liverpool's goalless draw with Fulham on Saturday exposed familiar weaknesses from last season, with the Reds struggling to break down Alvaro Arbeloa's previously pointless visitors. Arne Slot's side were slow in possession, completing just 129 of 253 first-half passes in Fulham's half, and were repeatedly caught out defensively—most alarmingly when Alisson's error was rescued by Jeremy Jacquet's clearance.
Manager Andoni Iraola acknowledged the performance fell short, saying his team lacked structure early on and were "clearly not as good offensively" as recent displays had suggested. While Liverpool improved after the break and kept a clean sheet, they created little of substance and failed to extend their run of scoring in every league game this season.
