Liverpool were defeated 2-1 by Crystal Palace in their Premier League clash on Saturday.

Saturday’s defeat means that the Reds’ perfect Premier League start has been squandered.

Palace were more than deserving of all three points on Saturday, with many thinking that Slot’s men would have too much quality for them to handle.

However, that couldn’t have been further from the truth, with Martin Keown even saying that Ibrahima Konate had a “nightmare” performance.

The centre-back has long been linked with a free transfer to Real Madrid at the end of the season, and after some of his performances this term, it feels like the Frenchman is already in Spain.

However, even though Jean-Philippe Mateta hasn’t been in the best form this season, Keown still believes that he made Konate have a “nightmare” performance.

Liverpool had the perfect start to their Premier League season, and against Palace, it feels like everything they’d managed to improve on as a team was forgotten about.

Because if they go into the clash on Tuesday the same way they started against Palace, it could get rather messy at RAMS Park.
