Klopp fumes at Fulham draw
Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp was left fuming by his side's performance at Fulham after twice falling behind to Marco Silva's men.
Goals from Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah ultimately salvaged a point, but it was far from the perfect start to the season. And that performance left Klopp furious with his players.
"We were nowhere near good enough, from the first second we didn't find the game. I don't think I have said it before, but we had the wrong attitude for this game. That's how it is, so we had to fight," Klopp told Viaplay.
Transfer admission made
Jurgen Klopp has admitted he may be forced to return to the transfer market after seeing Thiago Alcantara forced off with injury against Fulham.
The Liverpool boss has previously insisted he will wait until next summer before making a move to sign a new midfielder. But in light of Thiago's injury, Klopp has admitted he could be forced to change his plans.
"The problem now is we have been punished for something which is not our responsibility. Things like this can happen. There's nothing we could do about this. Naby is ill and maybe he'll be back next week. Oxlade-Chamberlain is out," he said.
Lineker makes Nunez prediction
Gary Lineker has tipped Darwin Nunez to be a great success in the Premier League after scoring on his Liverpool debut.
The striker was signed from Benfica for a club-record fee earlier this summer, replacing the departed Sadio Mane. He got his career with the Reds off to the perfect start on Saturday, having been introduced as a second-half substitute.
The 23-year-old scored a brilliant equaliser within 15 minutes of coming on, before setting up Salah for his goal. And his performance led to former England star Lineker tipping the striker for great things.
