Despite Liverpool's comfortable and ideal 2-0 win over Fulham, manager Arne Slot couldn’t help but point to a little self-pity in his post-match press conference when referencing an injury to midfielder Curtis Jones.
Jones, who was making his first league start in almost two months after finding himself out of favour in recent weeks, went off at half-time. “I would almost say, ‘Welcome to our season’,” said Slot.
“Every time after a win, or after something good happens, there’s always an injury following it up, but it’s a win, and that’s what we should be really happy about.”
