Liverpool were stunned by West Ham as their long unbeaten run stretching back to last April was ended at the London Stadium.

The Reds 3-2 with the Hammers rampant from the word go – and Alisson enduring an afternoon to forget in the Liverpool goal.

Liverpool goals came from Trent Alexander-Arnold and Divock Origi. An Alisson own goal, Pablo Fornals and Kurt Zouma ensured victory for the hosts.

One man who was the subject of discussion among Liverpool fans after the game was Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.

He came in for some criticism from the Liverpool faithful; despite some supporters feeling he played okay yesterday.

Ultimately, the 28-year-old struggles with consistency and producing the goods on a regular basis.

Oxlade-Chamberlain has struggled with injuries in recent times and that has largely robbed his chances of regular game time.

Yesterday, he started a Premier League match for just the second time this season but was subbed with a little over 20 minutes remaining.

Oxlade-Chamberlain signed for Liverpool in 2017 for £35 million. He has made 116 appearances, scoring 14 goals and claiming 13 assists.

He has collected a Premier League winners medal and helped Liverpool lift the Champions League during his time at the club. With that in mind, he’ll have no regrets about making the move to Anfield.

What have Liverpool fans said about Oxlade-Chamberlain?

It’s fair to say that some are growing frustrated with the Portsmouth-born performer.

Liverpool utilise the player in central midfield these days, despite originally signing him as a versatile forward.

Boss Jurgen Klopp may think twice about handing him more minutes from the start after yesterday, with some fans believing it could be time to sell him.

Here is what the Liverpool fan base had to say on Twitter after the £125,000-a-week player’s performance at West Ham.
