Jamie Carragher asks ruthless Fabinho Liverpool question as five players awful vs Nottingham Forest

Here are your Liverpool morning headlines for Saturday, October 22.

Carragher asks ruthless Fabinho question

Jamie Carragher has taken aim at Fabinho for his part in Liverpool's 1-0 defeat at Nottingham Forest.

The Reds missed out on a chance to climb up to fifth in the Premier League as they were downed by Taiwo Awoniyi's close-range finish on 55 minutes. Jurgen Klopp's side dominated possession at the City Ground but looked toothless going forward, with Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk spurning the few chances registered from set-pieces.

Particularly poor on the day was Fabinho, with the Brazilian regularly giving away possession in midfield and failing to win his midfield duels. And former Reds captain Carragher questioned the 28-year-old's recent form after the final whistle.

Joe Gomez and four others awful in Nottingham Forest defeat

Liverpool player ratings and scores after the 1-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest in the Premier League.

Alisson Becker 7

Safe hands to clutch a number of shots directed at him by Forest first half. No chance with the Forest opener and later saved from Johnson and Yates.

James Milner 6

Offered himself regularly down the right and overlapped well with Elliott. Good engine and great block prevented Gibbs-White making it 2-0. Subbed.

Joe Gomez 4

Somewhat nervy during the opening quarter but had settled before needless foul on Awoniyi led to booking and prompted the Forest opener.
