Gary Neville has called for Arne Slot to drop one Liverpool star amid a string of worrying results from the Premier League champions‚ with their latest domestic outing seeing the Reds slump to a 3-2 defeat at Brentford on Saturday evening. Liverpool have failed to win a Premier League match since the end of September‚ losing their last four division games against Crystal Palace‚ Chelsea‚ and Manchester United. Slot has been open about his side's decline and deemed the Brentford defeat the worst performance he had overseen in his season-and-a-half-long tenure at Anfield.
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 . It leaves them five points behind leaders Arsenal and already matching their total of league defeats from last season. Arne Slot's side‚ who stormed to the title just five months ago‚ have conceded nine goals across those four games and look a shadow of the team that lifted the trophy in May.
Liverpool sank to their fourth consecutive league defeat on Saturday night as they were bested 3-2 by Brentford in London‚ leaving them sixth in the Premier League and below Manchester United. Their form is blowing up into a crisis‚ with challenging fixtures against Crystal Palace‚ Aston Villa‚ Real Madrid‚ and Manchester City coming up before the next international break.
LEWIS STEELE AT THE GTECH COMMUNITY STADIUM: Arne Slot thinks Liverpool's loss at Brentford was the worst performance of his era and that he is struggling for the answers on how to cope against direct teams. It came at a complete contrast to Keith Andrews who hailed the best night of his short managerial career after goals from Dango Ouattara‚ Kevin Schade and Igor Thiago helped Brentford on the way to a famous win despite Milos Kerkez and Mohamed Salah's strikes. The Premier League champions have now lost four straight league games‚ the most bruising month of Slot's managerial career - and the Dutchman says the display was far from the level the Reds set in winning the title last year.
OLIVER HOLT AT THE GTECH COMMUNITY STADIUM: When they were kings‚ when they were rulers of England and Europe‚ when they carried all before them‚ Virgil van Dijk and Mo Salah‚ looked to Jordan Henderson as their leader‚ the captain who drove them with a relentless hunger that never dimmed. Van Dijk and Salah have stayed at Anfield and won fresh honours but on Tuesday night‚ the odyssey on which Henderson embarked two years ago brought him up against the friends and teammates he won titles with for the first time. Henderson's travels have taken him to Al-Ettifaq in Saudi Arabia and to the once mighty Ajax of Amsterdam and there were times before he arrived at Brentford in the summer when people thought his career was fast ebbing away.
