"Ridiculous, almost. Something I didn't expect to be in, not at any club I worked at let alone if you are manager of Liverpool. That is unbelievable. It is unexpected for the club, for me, for everyone, but if you ever needed to face this maybe this is the best club to face it because the harder it gets the more we are together, the more we are trying to do the things Liverpool usually achieves."
"These situations, it's not really nice is it? I can tell you that. To be honest, I didn't expect myself to be in this situation with the way we go about it tactically and the quality of players we have. You would never have expected us to have lost so much. For sure I take the responsibility and feel guilty for it. We're busy working on it."
Liverpool have suffered eight defeats in their last 11 matches and currently sit 12th in the Premier League, their first position in the bottom half in over a decade. The team were expected to dominate after last season's title and significant summer signings but have been repeatedly exposed defensively while midfield and forward play have fallen below last season's standards. The Champions League against PSV represents a more realistic chance for silverware. Manager Arne Slot described the situation as almost 'ridiculous', said he takes responsibility and feels guilty, and stated the squad is working to address tactical and quality issues.
