"The Reds went out with a whimper in an embarrassing 4-1 defeat after conceding first again. That result drops us out of the automatic places for the Round of 16 stage, but that is the least of our worries. The heat has been turned up another notch on Arne Slot, and the criticisms from the Liverpool fans are becoming harder and harder to ignore."
"Milos Kerkez - 3/10 - Surely has to be dropped until Christmas now. Consistently out of position, negligent tracking back and an obsession with playing the man over the ball. He was found out 2 months ago and hasn't altered his play slightly. He needs to be taken out of the firing line for his own sake. Ibou Konate - 4/10 - Started like he had a point to prove, and then after 25 minutes, forgot what that point was."
Liverpool lost 4-1 after conceding first, dropping out of automatic qualification for the Round of 16 and increasing pressure on manager Arne Slot. Fans grew more critical as defensive errors mounted. Goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili made expected saves but faced too many shots due to a fragile back four. Milos Kerkez was repeatedly out of position, negligent in tracking back, and criticized for poor decisions. Ibou Konate faded after a strong start and was held responsible for the fourth goal. Virgil van Dijk appeared shaky and conceded a costly handball. Curtis Jones and Ryan Gravenberch showed some positive moments, but defensive instability dominated.
