1. Ramses Alisson · 66. Trent Alexander-Arnold · 32. Joel Matip · 4. Virgil van Dijk · 26. Andrew Robertson · 8. Naby Keita · 14. Jordan Henderson · 7. James Milner.

[Liverpool](https://www.theguardian.com/football/liverpool) are going to be disappointing. [Liverpool](https://www.theguardian.com/football/liverpool) a free-kick. Vieira and his players may sense an opportunity to capitalise on any potential hesitancy or tension in the visiting ranks after their sobering experience a few days ago. Or maybe, when all is said and done, it will be recognised as the most significant milestone on a gradual descent. Jordan Ayew has a final sip of his drink, and runs out on to the pitch, high-fiving and low-fiving his teammates as he goes. The teams are out on the pitch. Alexander-Arnold waits for a while, so long in fact that the Palace players start to complain about the delay. But Palace are in position to repel the danger again. Liverpool’s Alexander-Arnold and Matip get in a muddle when trying to play out from the back, after a pass out from Alisson. The ball suddenly drops for Mateta, a gift straight from Alexander-Arnold, and he’s essentially one-on-one with the Palace are really set up to defend and nick one on the break. It falls kindly for Jota, who belts a sweet shot down the middle, straight at Guaita.

We have to take the things and go again, take the things and go again. On difficulties in front of goal: "One of the frustrations we have as team is creating opportunities and not taking them. After that we finished the game in a better way. On Michael Olise: "He was really important for us when we were in possession. The [third goal] for Real Madrid was obviously good for absolutely nothing but at least we could prepare for tonight because we had two free kicks in similar situations and defended much better. That seemed to inject some confidence into the hosts and they began to rack up a raft of chances. It was a tough game." The game turned out to be series of almosts and maybes, marked from the early minutes. In the end, it's an away point and it's OK. The hosts applied the last-minute pressure and were incensed at the full-time whistle, as referee Darren England blew as Crystal Palace were awarded another corner. Liverpool move up a place into seventh, six points adrift of the top four. Marc Guehi and the superb Michael Olise also went close.

That’s exactly the situation we have. But Patrick Vieira’s men also haven’t won in 2023, drawing four and losing three of their seven league outings since the turn of the year. The way this club is led is not by splashing the money and having a look to see if it works out or not. We have the situation now with Bobby [Firmino] and Diogo [Jota]. Our transfers always have to be on point." We cannot do that now but it is already clear we have to do something in the summer.
