Cesc Fabregas slammed Alexis MacAllister for his role in Liverpool surrendering the first goal against Brighton and Hove Albion tonight.

It appears to be an exact replica. Jurgen Klopp’s team has already conceded these types of goals this season when playing out from the back, as evidenced by the Bournemouth encounter.

Virgil van Dijk was the man on the ball for Liverpool as he attempted to feed a ball through to Alexis Mac Allister, who’stayed standing’ when the ball was given to the 24-year-old, according to Cesc Fabregas (08/10/23 at 2:55 pm).

Brighton seized on the pass, forcing Alisson Becker off his line, before Simon Adingra, the new kid on the block, sprinted at Liverpool’s backline before slotting home from the edge of the box.

Playing out from the back has its risks and rewards, as Brighton found themselves serving Liverpool the gifts they were given.

Both were penalised, with Mohamed Salah receiving a brace while Cesc Fabregas discussed Alexis MacAllister’s conduct, or lack thereof.

“I’m surprised by Mac Allister,” Fabregas admitted. “He wasn’t prepared to catch the ball. He remained standing.

“I agree with you that he (van Dijk) has better options than to play which wasn’t safe.”

Right now, Mo Salah is unstoppable

If the popular consensus is that Manchester City’s goal-crazy striker Erling Haaland will win the Golden Boot, you should reconsider.

Yes, he now faces less challenges because Harry Kane has left the Premier League for Bayern Munich.

If anyone in the Premier League can stop Haaland, it’s Salah, who has five goals and four assists in eight games this season.
