"It was horrible, it was stale. At times it promised a lot, but delivered precious little. Three xG to 0.4, it was squandered. Arne Slot has to take a portion of the blame in what was an impotent Liverpool performance. The Reds went from pedestrian to downright indecisive in a performance that summed up Liverpool's season. Here is how the Liverpool players rated, and I'm not feeling too charitable."
"Virgil van Dijk- 6 He at times looked nervous, as a part of a Liverpool backline that looked at times more scared of Burnley than it needed to be. On the ball, he wasn't good enough. He seems to have lost his way with some of those diagonal passes. Ibrahima Konate- 6 I don't think that he is good enough to be a starter for Liverpool."
Liverpool produced a stale, wasteful display that squandered approximately 3 xG while managing only 0.4, with Arne Slot taking partial blame for an impotent showing. The team shifted from pedestrian to indecisive, reflecting broader season-long struggles. Individual ratings were largely mediocre: Alisson was lackadaisical on the ball but not primarily at fault for the goal; Kerkez started well then faded; van Dijk looked nervous and lost passing quality; Konate was judged poor on the ball and unsuitable against a low block; Frimpong showed flashes but had defensive and final-third shortcomings; Gravenberch lacked tempo despite some defensive contributions.
