The Fulham Twitter admin has taken a cheeky dig at Jurgen Klopp after the Liverpool boss claimed the pitch at Craven Cottage was too “dry” for his players.
Aleksandar Mitrovic’s brace earned Fulham a well-deserved point on their return to the Premier League as they took the lead twice in a 2-2 draw with Liverpool on Saturday.

“Our first half was almost perfect. The way we controlled, the way we worked the quality they have, because even if in some moments they don’t decide in a collective way, they can…
