Rio Ferdinand has explained that a few of the Liverpool players have changed their game this season, which has had a negative impact on the team.

That would mean Roberto Firmino, Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane are the men under the spotlight.



They’re going to have to be brave to overcome a deficit against Madrid in next week’s Champions League second leg, so it’ll be interesting to see if they release the handbrake and really press high.



Pundit Ferdinand has selected the Reds attacking stars as individuals that have changed.



They’ve gone away from that,” Ferdinand told BT Sport 2 (6 April).

The analysis came after Liverpool’s disappointing 3-1 defeat on Tuesday against Real Madrid in the first leg of a Champions League quarter-final.

If you’ve watched Liverpool this season, you’ll see they look miles apart from the machine they’ve been in the past couple of years to win silverware.
