'Unthinkable' $812m reality in new low for Liverpool; fuming City boss storms onto field - EPL Wrap
"The spluttering champions fell behind in the 33rd minute when Murillo's fierce strike punished their failure to deal with Elliot Anderson's corner. Reds boss Arne Slot was fuming that the goal was allowed despite Forest's Dan Ndoye appearing to obstruct Liverpool keeper Alisson Becker -- an offence that led Virgil van Dijk's equaliser to be disallowed in the 3-0 loss at Manchester City before the international break."
"Sean Dyche's side doubled their lead after 46 minutes when Nicolo Savona slotted home from Neco Williams' cut-back. With Liverpool's defence in disarray, Morgan Gibbs-White scored Forest's third from the rebound after Omari Hutchinson's shot was saved in the 78th minute. Beaten by Forest at Anfield for a second successive season, Liverpool have lost eight of their last 11 games in all competitions, including six of their last seven in the top flight."
"Once again Liverpool were devoid of inspiration and energy in another lethargic display that left them languishing in 11th place, eight points behind leaders Arsenal. Liverpool's stunning decline comes after a summer spending spree of over £400 million ($A812 million). Alexander Isak was hauled off in the second half of his fourth league start for Liverpool following a British record move from Newcastle that has failed to live up to the hype."
Liverpool suffered a 3-0 defeat at Anfield to Nottingham Forest as Murillo opened the scoring in the 33rd minute, Nicolo Savona doubled the lead after 46 minutes, and Morgan Gibbs-White completed the rout in the 78th. Reds manager Arne Slot protested after Forest's Dan Ndoye appeared to obstruct goalkeeper Alisson Becker for the opener. Liverpool have lost eight of their last 11 matches and six of their last seven league games, languishing in 11th place and eight points off the top. The decline follows a summer outlay of over £400 million, while new signing Alexander Isak remains without a Premier League goal.
