They need to make sure that they've updated the laws of the game to make sure neither side can get a penalty for heading the ball before an opponent.

Liverpool are playing in their white kit so PGMOL can be excused any offsides they get wrong.

Quelle surprise…..

Another Saliba incident not given as a red. This time Fulham clean through and only a yellow. The only surprise is I’m not surprised.

He was too close to the goal. If it was on the halfway line like Saliba it would have been a stone wall red.

If the game does go ahead the Scouse players will need to get in extra-home security so their own fans don't rob their houses.

Look if it’s all down to sheer refereeing incompetence then there’s every chance the victims will get a shocker of a decision against them today which will cost the points. They’ll be just as likely to get screwed over as we get right?

You know it’s cold in Liverpool when their supporters have their hands in their own pockets.

ESR dreadful in this match. Missed a sitter. All too familiar and people have rose tinted spectacles of a purple patch in one season. Bloke is too inconsistent.

Hasn’t completed a single 90 minutes all season. There were people on here at the beginning of the season saying that was because he wasn’t match fit die to lack of game time with us yet here we are in January and he still hasn’t done it.

Nice lad but he’s always going to have fitness issues and despite Fulham being a team that gets a good few goals he’s rarely among them or any assists. Comedy Iwobi is more of a goal threat for them.

As you say Rodders ESR nice lad etc... which I'm certain he is, but he just looks like if he wasn't training every day, he'd be a Right Porker.

Not sure why some are so obsessed with the Croydon De Bruyne. He gets gassed after 60mins.

Iwobi on the other hand has kicked on could probably do a job for us on current form.

There are a lot of players who could do a job for us considering we always seem to be carrying 2 or 3 players every game.

Meanwhile, so far, so good for United. Only another 80 mins to hang on..
