Yeah, this is what I was thinking too.
Once Liverpool went down by one, Fulham parked the bus to try and force them to break them down and then break on the counter. Its a good strategy and they played it perfectly.
I'm a little disappointed in Matip, going off at half-time with a 'sore back.' Like...come on man. This guy cant string a handful of games together without getting hurt.
But in circumstances like that you need the players that can break that formation down, and we have those players.
Thiago is excellent...when hes healthy...which seems like never.
Fabinho is also excellent, but we need him playing CB because we're running out of people with a pulse who can do it.
Its going to be a brutal Christmas season if we dont get some bodies back. I think theres really no option now, Klopp is going to have to buy a CB during the window.
Which sucks because we've got lots of good ones. They're just all hurt.
