Who was Liverpool’s best player against Fulham?

Liverpool survived a little scare to beat Fulham 2-1 and go 2 points clear of Manchester City, but with an extra game played.

Jurgen Klopp’s side dominated the first half as on-fire Sadio Mané opened the scoring in the 26th minute, after a clever one-two with Roberto Firmino to score his 17th league goal of the season.

The second half continued with much of the same as Liverpool carved open Fulham but failed to find the back of the net, before a succession of errors from James Milner, Virgil van Dijk and Alisson allowed former Liverpool player Ryan Babel to tap it in on an empty net.

Liverpool fought back though to keep their title hopes alive as Milner converted a late penalty won by Mané after Sergio Rico brought the winger down.

It was a tough afternoon and there were not too many great individual performances, but who do you think was Liverpool’s best player.

Simply select which of the players shown below you think had the better game and go ‘winner-stays-on’ style until the end.
