Liverpool put their horror run behind them by beating Aston Villa and sent a statement to the rest of the league that they are far from done in their pursuit of glory this season.

Jamie Carragher believes Liverpool are in 'crisis time' after their fourth straight Premier League defeat under Arne Slot . The champions were beaten 3-2 by Brentford on Saturday‚ their fourth loss in as many league matches after defeats to Chelsea ‚ Manchester United and Crystal Palace .
