Jurgen Klopp and Alisson fume as John Terry sings own Chelsea song in Liverpool away end
It was another day of frustration for Liverpool as they were held to a goalless draw at home to Chelsea on Saturday lunchtime.
In a game that was befitting of the relatively lowly places of ninth and 10th that the Reds and the Londoners respectively found themselves in before kick-off, there were few genuine chances for either team.
The visitors had an early goal ruled out for offside and new £88m signing Mykhailo Mudryk ruffled the side netting late on, while Cody Gakpo and Darwin Nunez brought out second-half saves from Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga

Stefan Bajcetic admits Jurgen Klopp decision left him 'shocked' before Liverpool draw with Chelsea
Stefan Bajcetic has revealed he was 'shocked' to find out he would be making his first Premier League start this weekend.
The Spanish midfielder has now 15 first-team appearances this season and has slowly gained the trust of Jurgen Klopp, who trusted the teenager to feature in his midfield three versus Chelsea on Saturday afternoon. Despite receiving a yellow card during the game, Bajcetic impressed once again and appears to be pushing his way into contention for further opportunities from the off.
Speaking at his press conference on Friday afternoon, Klopp admitted the youngster had been in his 'thoughts' for some time regarding a top-flight start and placed his trust in the 18-year-old for the visit of Graham Potter's side.
Describing his reaction when he discovered the Liverpool boss had included him in his starting eleven, Bajcetic said: "I found out [on Friday]. Obviously we prepare for the game the day before and I found out, I was a bit shocked. I'm so happy to be here and to play and to help the team. I didn't hear it [Klopp's press conference comments], but it's always a great feeling to hear the boss say that. I'm just trying to give my best."
