Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson does not believe they can use injuries as an excuse for dropping points on Sunday.
The Reds were held to a 1-1 draw by newly promoted Fulham, a result that would have disappointed the players and manager Jurgen Klopp.
It was a missed chance to go clear at the top of the table, as both Tottenham and Chelsea dropped points this weekend.
Asked whether injuries made a difference, Henderson told reporters: "I'll let you talk about that, and the amount of games players are playing, especially European teams.
"I don't want to stand here and make excuses, we just have to prepare and play when we're told.
"We flew back from Denmark, prepared well, but for whatever reason we didn't start this game well.
"But again, the good thing is we reacted well."
