Roy Keane has demanded Liverpool "show some class" and labelled them "irritating" for taking their foot off the gas after winning the Premier League title.
The Reds secured the top spot with an explosive 5-1 victory over Tottenham in April, but have been winless in the league since.
Arne Slot's side lost 3-1 at Chelsea, drew 2-2 at home with Arsenal, despite being two goals ahead, and recently surrendered a 2-1 advantage away to Brighton, to lose 3-2.
The games have not been indicative of a side that, upon winning the title at Anfield, had only lost two games all season.
"It doesn't matter [that they've won the league], but the fringe players and the B team are coming in – what kind of message is that?
The goal all but cemented Liverpool's league title, with Anfield clearly in the throes of a party-like atmosphere.

Slot chopped and changed for the games against Chelsea and Brighton, with many fans seeing those redundant fixtures as opportunities for fringe players.
The Reds' tie against the Gunners was a hard-fought affair with their closest rivals, with a draw seen as a fair result.
With one game remaining, the Reds can now reach a maximum of 86 points, which is three points shy of Arsenal's final tally in second place last season.
However, speaking after he won the Premier League, Slot admitted that motivating his players for the final four games could be a tough task, with the Dutch coach and his players also spotted enjoying some much-needed R&R time in Dubai since sealing the title.

"It's difficult for a team who has already won the league to train so many days in a row," Slot said.
"We have hardly had any time off in the season because of so many competitions - I want to make that clear.
"The boys deserved a few days off, it's been a long season for us, to train three days is enough to be physically ready for the game.
