Liverpool’s defensive issues continue 

Jurgen Klopp lamented the way his side conceded the goals in the game in the post match press conference. And it has been a recurring theme this season, with the defensive side of things absolutely not as solid as it once was. This has left the team out of contention for the top four, and in a very difficult situation. 

Alvarez shines yet again 

Erling Haaland was unable to play because of injury, and was replaced by Julian Alvarez. But, the World Cup winner has continued to provide goals and assists in spite of not playing regularly. He has scored and assisted 17 goals this season in his 16 starts, which is a remarkable figure by any standards.
