Liverpool are playing very badly. |
On the evening of October 19, MU defeated Liverpool 2-1 in the 8th round of the Premier League with goals from Bryan Mbeumo and Harry Maguire. This was the first victory of the "Red Devils" at Anfield since January 2016, when they were still led by Louis Van Gaal. This result also made Liverpool have a fourth consecutive loss in all competitions, something that has not happened in 11 years.
In November 2014, when the team was still led by coach Brendan Rodgers, Liverpool lost 4 consecutive matches in the Premier League and Champions League. This streak marked a difficult period, when the team lacked creativity and the defense constantly made mistakes, leading to increasing pressure on coach Rodgers at that time. This bad streak contributed to Liverpool being eliminated from the Champions League right from the group stage, ending the 2014/15 Premier League in 6th place.
Now, under manager Arne Slot, Liverpool are facing a similar crisis. Their recent four-game losing streak includes defeats against Galatasaray (Champions League), Chelsea, Palace and Manchester United (all in the Premier League). Liverpool's current problems include a shaky defence, a lack of creativity in midfield and poor attacking efficiency. Mohamed Salah has gone seven Premier League games without scoring from an open play (non-penalty), the first time in his Liverpool career.
The team have also conceded more than two goals in eight of their 12 Premier League games since May, showing a serious defensive decline. The pressure is mounting on Slot, especially as Liverpool prepare to face Eintracht Frankfurt in the Champions League this week.
