Liverpool is starting to worry. Yet in great shape since the start of the season and at the top of the Premier League with five victories in five matches, in addition to a first C1 match successful against Atlético de Madrid (3-2), the training of Arne Slot has been taking a serious blow of soft since the end of September. After a first setback cashed in the last minutes at Crystal Palace, the Reds missed their match on the Galatasaray lawn on the second day of the Champions League.
But the bad pass woven this Saturday with a new defeat against Chelsea, leaving the club to three consecutive defeats in a row. Which logically made him lose his throne of leader of the English championship in favor of Arsenal. Is it the status of Premier League champion that is difficult to assume to Liverpool? Or, an XXL recruitment that does not bear fruit? At the microphone of Bbcthe goalscorer Cody Gakpo admitted that there was a current bad form, but refuses to speak of a lack of confidence.
Arne Slot does not want to worry
“I don't want to say that we lack trust. Right now, things are not running in our favor. There are five games, they may have turned in our favor. This is part of football. We have to accept it and continue to fight. When you play in such an important club, it is normal for three losses in a row to be deemed sufficient. As players, we are very aware of the situation. We know what we have to do, that is to say to reconnect with the victory ”he assured.
And if he does not want to worry, Arne Slot recognizes an offensive efficiency problem. “We have been the dominant team, but in the last ten minutes, it was constant back and forth, the two teams could have scored. The two attacks have often arrived in the opposing surface. Right now, these small details are not running in our favor ”explains the Dutchman, who defended himself on the state of form of the Reds: “First, you have to look at the opponents that we face (…) as I said after Galatasaray, we have a face-to-face one that we miss, then they get a penalty. We collect against palace in additional time, and even today, they score a goal that could have gone on one side as on the other ”
