Tosin Adarabioyo made 17 clearances in Fulham’s 1-0 win at Liverpool today, a record in a Premier League match this season
Scott Parker has now won more games at Anfield as a manager (1) than he did in his eight visits as a player (0).
Liverpool and Dijon are the only sides in Europe’s top five leagues that have failed to score from open play in a home league match in 2021…
Only five of the 98 teams in Europe’s top five leagues have had more shots from open play than Liverpool (83) in that time…
I am baffled by the continuing state of Liverpool.
To suffer a loss against Fulham who are on the brink of relegation zone, is just unfathomable. Injured players cannot be a continuing reason, especially for this fixture. There seems to be more than what meets the eye…I think.
Bruno Fernandes has equalled Steven Gerrard’s personal record for most Premier League goals scored in a single season (16).
And he’s got a few more games to play.
The last two teams to take the lead against Man City in the Premier League:
21st November 2020: Spurs
7th March 2021: Man Utd
It only took four months.
After 101 seconds, Bruno Fernandes’ penalty is the earliest goal that Man City have ever conceded in a league match at the Etihad Stadium, and the first they have conceded within two minutes at home since Steed Malbranque for Fulham at Maine Road in January 2003. Shock.
Bruno Fernandes’ penalty was the 92nd taken in the Premier League this season, equalling the same number from the entirety of last season. Interpretation.
16 goals
10 assists
Bruno Fernandes overtakes Harry Kane as the player with most Premier League goal involvements this season
Bruno Fernandes’ penalty in the second minute separates the side at the break.
102 - Manchester United are unbeaten in their last 102 Premier League games when leading at half time (W90 D12), with their last such defeat coming in September 2014 under Louis van Gaal (3-5 v Leicester). Conundrum.
Luke Shaw has now scored as many Premier League goals today against Man City (1) as in his previous 179 appearances combined in the competition.
What a run. What a finish. What a player.

Goals from Bruno Fernandes and Luke Shaw end Manchester City’s 21 game winning run.
Longest unbeaten runs away from home in English top-flight history:
27 - Arsenal (2003-04)
22 - Arsenal (2001-02)
22 - Man Utd (2020-present)
21 - Liverpool (2019-2020)
21 - Nottingham Forest (1977-78)
The streak goes on.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is the first manager in Man United history to win his first three Manchester Derby away games.
Put some respect on his name
