Troubled Liverpool’s woeful season hit a new low with a shocking 3-0 home defeat against Nottingham Forest.
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.
It is the first time Liverpool have lost consecutive league games by a three-goal margin since 1965.Slot admitted on Friday that Liverpool’s players are still affected by the tragic death of Diogo Jota in a crash crash in Spain in July.
And once again they 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 ($523 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.
