He is actually useless’: Liverpool fans blame one player for the second Fulham goal

Jarell Quansah has found himself at the center of criticism following Liverpool’s draw against Fulham, with fans directing their frustration at the young defender.

The second Fulham goal, in particular, saw Quansah come under fire for failing to intervene and prevent the attack.

This isn’t the first time the youngster’s performances have raised eyebrows, but this latest outing has reignited calls for defensive reinforcements in January.

Social media platforms were rife with harsh reactions from Liverpool fans, many of whom singled out Quansah as the weak link in the team. One fan labeled his defensive display as “criminal,” while others questioned his readiness to play for a club of Liverpool’s stature. Comments suggesting he is “horrific” and “not good enough” reflected a growing sense of dissatisfaction among supporters.

However, the criticism doesn’t stop with Quansah. Some fans turned their attention to Andy Robertson, who was sent off during the game, arguing that his recent form has been detrimental to the team. Robertson has been involved in several costly errors in recent weeks, and his red card against Fulham only added fuel to the fire. Many now believe it’s time for Kostas Tsimikas to step up as a temporary solution, while some are calling for a new left-back in the transfer market.

Trent Alexander-Arnold wasn’t spared either, with fans pointing out his poor defensive positioning in the lead-up to Fulham’s second goal. While Quansah bore the brunt of the backlash, some argued that the blame should be shared, highlighting the overall disorganization in Liverpool’s backline. Trent’s casual approach to defending left many supporters frustrated.

Despite the criticism, there were a few voices of reason calling for patience with Quansah. They argued that the 20-year-old is still learning and shouldn’t be written off so early in his career. Comparisons were made to other young players who have developed into reliable defenders after being given time and support to grow.

Manager Arne Slot’s decision to bring Quansah into the fold has also come under scrutiny. Many questioned whether the youngster is being thrown into the deep end too soon, especially with Liverpool competing at the highest level. Some fans suggested loaning him out to a mid-table Premier League club where he could gain experience without the same level of pressure.

Liverpool’s defensive struggles have exposed a deeper issue within the squad. Injuries to key players like Ibrahima Konaté have left the team vulnerable, and fans are now demanding action in the upcoming transfer window. Calls for a new center-back and potentially a left-back are growing louder as the Reds aim to stay in contention for the Premier League title.

Amid the backlash, there were also glimpses of positivity. Diogo Jota’s performance stood out, and his late goal salvaged a point for Liverpool. Many fans praised the team’s resilience, especially after going down to ten men. However, the general sentiment remained that the Reds need to strengthen their squad to avoid similar situations in the future.

This season has been a rollercoaster for Liverpool, with moments of brilliance overshadowed by lapses in concentration. The draw against Fulham served as a harsh reminder of the work that still needs to be done, both on the pitch and in the transfer market. Fans’ frustration is understandable, but rebuilding a cohesive and reliable backline will take time.

As Liverpool gears up for the January transfer window, the spotlight will remain on players like Quansah. Whether he can rise above the criticism and prove his worth remains to be seen. For now, the young defender must learn from his mistakes and focus on improving, knowing that the road to redemption is never easy in football.
