(The Guardian) 40 min “Curtis Jones (19) is 99% undroppable for the greatest team on planet Earth?” wonders Paul Quigley. At the risk of Grinching, I wouldn’t go that far. He’s pretty impressive but if Liverpool were playing Bayern in the Champions League final tomorrow, and Thiago was fit, I don’t think Jones would start. I’d say he’s still the fifth-choice central midfielder, though Fabinho’s secondment makes him fourth choice for the rest of this season.

(The Guardian) 41 min According to the official Premier League site, Liverpool have had - and you’ll like this - 85 per cent of the possession.

(The Guardian) 43 min Alexander-Arnold’s cross is headed on and over the bar by Salah. Liverpool haven’t really threatened in the last 20 minutes.

(The Guardian) Half time: Liverpool 1-0 West BromA half chance for West Brom on the stroke of half time. Grant plays a good ball down the inside-left channel to release Phillips in the area. He decides not to shoot and instead puts in a lame low cross that is cleared by Robertson. Peep peep!

(The Guardian) 46 min Peep peep! Liverpool begin the second half.
46 min Henderson almost scores in the first minute of the second half. Wijnaldum chested down a clearance and teed up Henderson, 25 yards out. He cut across the bouncing ball to hit a lovely shot that swerved just wide of the post. Johnstone didn’t move.

(The Guardian) 48 min Jordan Henderson completed 85 passes in the first half, almost twice as many as the entire West Brom team (46).
49 min West Brom increase their total of completed passes by 10-15 with a decent move. Eventually a poor cross is easily claimed by Alisson.

(The Guardian) 50 min Salah plays the ball to Firmino, who conceives a very clever return pass but then overhits it. Had he got the angle right, Salah would have been through on goal.
51 min Furlong’s cross is taken down smartly on the edge of the area by Grant. He turns and hits a reasonable shot that is comfortably saved by Alisson. That means both sides have had one shot on target, which is faintly absurd given the possession stats.

(The Guardian) 53 min Fabinho shanks a clearance out of play, which gives West Brom the opportunity for another long throw. Furlong hurls it into the area and Fabinho heads it away.
56 min West Brom have been good since half-time, and Liverpool look a bit confused by it all. I’m sure they’ll snap out of it but at the moment it’s a fairly even game.

(The Guardian) 58 min Oh dear. Joel Matip has done his groin and it looks like he’ll need to go off.
59 min Matip is still being treated, and if the poor bloke can hang on for another 60 seconds I’ll get clean sheet points in my Fantasy League team. Hang in there, Joel! Don’t give up on us now!

(The Guardian) 60 min Rhys Williams is going to replace Matip in the 60th minute, which means no clean sheet points for Bobby. FPL? FML more like!
60 min Matip leaves the field after 59 minutes 21 seconds. Rhys Williams, who was generally terrific against Spurs, comes on to replace him. He’ll be playing a fair bit in the next few weeks.

(The Guardian) 61 min Jurgen Klopp loses it with the referee after a foul is given against Rhys Williams. Klopp is booked, rightly so - he’s been out of order a few times this season.
