""It feels like there's too many [defeats]," Slot told reporters. "And the last thing I should speak about now is the title race. "We should first focus on getting results before we can even think about that. The reality is that we are eighth now.""

Liverpool lost 3-0 to Manchester City at the Etihad, with Jeremy Doku starring and Erling Haaland scoring after an early penalty was saved. A Virgil van Dijk header was ruled out for offside against Andy Robertson, and Nico Gonzalez's deflected strike in first-half stoppage time plus Doku's 63rd-minute finish completed the win. The defeat leaves Liverpool eighth in the Premier League after five losses in 11 matches, the most by a reigning champion at this stage since Leicester City in 2016-17. Opta gives Liverpool an 8.9% chance of retaining the title. Title-retention prospects were dismissed and focus shifted to improving results.
