The disappointment deepened last week when they suffered a 1-0 loss to Galatasaray in the Champions League.Hoping to recover against Chelsea this past weekend, the Reds' performance was as lacklustre as their previous two losses, with Estevao's injury time goal securing a 2-1 win for the Blues at Stamford Bridge.READ MORE: Alexander Isak plan revealed as manager fires dig at Newcastle after Liverpool transferREAD MORE: Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk called out in 'worrying' Liverpool dressing room claimThis is not only the first time that Slot's Liverpool side has lost three matches in a row, but it's also the first time in his managerial career that he's had to reverse fortunes following a run of three successive defeats.The Dutchman has faced significant criticism, but some has also been directed towards Mohamed Salah and some of his team-mates, as we examine all the latest news from Anfield.Salah criticisedThe Egyptian star has managed just three goals in 10 games and has scored only one in-play goal in the Premier League this season - which came in the Reds' opening-day 4-2 victory over Bournemouth.Despite the 33-year-old's lack of end product being a worry, it wasn't this that Wayne Rooney chose to critique when discussing the two-time league winner.
