I think Elliott continues to make a case that he should be part of the midfield rotation. I agree with the criticism that Slot’s midfield selection is stagnant. He rotated better earlier in the season.
Szoboszlai’s highs are scintillating, but his consistency is a problem. Mac Allister and Gravenberch (also streaky) have looked leggy as the season is winding down.
Elliott can lack some of the physicality that others give, but he offers, in exchange, energy and strong attacking ideas.
Goals are obviously not the problem if we scored two. The press always asking the most stupid questions.
'Mo will show up' - Slot not worried by Salah's form https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/videos/c75dzx9dzpyo Liverpool manager Arne Slot insists he is not worried about the form of Mohamed Salah, despite the forward going four games without a goal following a 3-2 loss to Fulham. #LFC #YNWA
It's not just a difficult place. It's a difficult place we just weren't prepared for.
I find it difficult to excuse a performance where the visiting team scores two goals and doesn't do enough to defend that unfair advantage.
Eight games to go: three away, five at home. We dropped more points than we should have today, but it's not the end of the world, if our defence gets a few fresh legs next.
If you're shocked, that's because you didn't factor in the possibility that our weakened and tired defence AND goal posts would be put to the test at Craven Cottage. But we were always going to be put to the test at Craven Cottage, and even in our best form we were always tested at Craven Cottage, even when we were more accustomed to retrieving one or three points from there in recent visits.
But if you go there with a makeshift RB, tired CBs, aging LB, and your second best keeper...
On the bright side

This has been a terrible half for #lfc. Think I might just back to bed. I have enough crap to worry about than a stupid game that won't truly affect my life one way or another.
- Back in from the garden to have a bite and a cup of tea.
- Checked in on the #LFC score.
- Going back out to the garden to take it out on some poor innocent shrubs.
I guess they aren't. What a stupid pass that was. #lfc now down 1 because of bonehead mistakes.
Wobbles need to be fixed early.
Does #lfc not get that Fulham is going to pressure them relentlessly?
This is too nervy for my liking. #LFC
It seems to me that our best shooters may have received precise instructions about the situations when they should aim on target decisively. Leno is an excellent goalkeeper, but we've known his weaknesses for a while. Nothing of this happens by random chance.
Might need an early sub for Dom, it's one of those days.
AND NOW YOU'RE GONNA BELIEVE US
full rendition at Craven Cottage
I don't know if you would call that against the run of play but man did we need Mac to hit that goal 0-1 #lfc over Fulham.
What a cannonball.

Liverpool 1 - 0 Fulham
Despite the many imprecisions, this excellent news to start the game.
Wobble wobble.
