#1 Flop: Lukasz Fabianski
Coming to Anfield is never an easy task for any team, but much focus is often placed on keepers. In these moments they either have the game of their lives or pick the ball out of the net severally. Fabianski chose the latter. For the opening goal of the game, Fabianski allowed a tame header to beat him. The Polish keeper even got a hand to the ball and decided to parry it into the net.
For a keeper of his standard, he shouldn’t be conceding such, so much so that this wasn’t just considered as a bad goal to concede but will go down as a mistake from the 34-year-old. If that weren’t enough, the West Ham keeper decided to add another howler to his day as he allowed Mohamed Salah’s 67th-minute strike to slip through his legs.
On another day, both of Liverpool’s goals would have been stopped by a competent keeper. Since leaving Arsenal, Fabianski has been one of the most consistent keepers in the league, tonight he proved the Gunners were right to not deem him good enough. Just to top things off, Fabianski showcased his rashness for Liverpool’s game-winning third.
