Liverpool’s Defensive Woes: Robertson and Kelleher Under Fire After Fulham Defeat
Liverpool's recent 4-3 loss to Fulham has sparked intense scrutiny over the performances of key players Andy Robertson and Caoimhin Kelleher. The match, which saw Liverpool's defense crumble, has led to harsh criticism from fans and pundits alike. Andy Robertson, usually a reliable figure in Liverpool's backline, was singled out for a costly mistake that contributed to one of Fulham's goals. TalkSPORT highlighted Robertson's error, noting it as a pivotal moment in the game that shifted momentum towards Fulham.
Meanwhile, goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher faced calls to 'move on' after a performance described as a 'day to forget' by GiveMeSport. The young Irish goalkeeper, who has been seen as a potential long-term successor to Alisson Becker, struggled to make crucial saves, leading some to question his readiness for top-flight football. TeamTalk went as far as suggesting that Kelleher should consider retirement, a harsh assessment of his display against Fulham.
The defeat has raised concerns about Liverpool's defensive stability and the future roles of both Robertson and Kelleher within the squad. As Liverpool looks to regroup and strengthen their defense, the performances of these two players will be under the microscope in upcoming matches.
