Even in the more successful recent times, there is still always something to get angsty about at Liverpool.
Last Saturday's limp performance in drawing 2-2 at Fulham can easily be dismissed as a blowing away of the cobwebs by some, but the fact that it included an injury to Thiago Alcantara has led to significant concern. We're not quite at panic stations yet, but some are asking for the directions.
Having started in what many would consider to be Jurgen Klopp's 'first choice' midfield along with Jordan Henderson and Fabinho, Thiago limped off early in the second half to be replaced ex-Fulham youngster by Harvey Elliott at Craven Cottage.
