Liverpool has things to improve"In the last two games we've lost, we've lost a few very simple balls and that adds to the thought, 'Wow, are we playing poor?' as we let ourselves down," Arne Slot says."We were 2-0 up against Bournemouth (on the opening day), very, very, very good game, much better than we've played in the second half of the season. But then we concede two, and everybody is starting to be more negative about that as well."And I can come up with a few other examples.

Against Atletico Madrid, it was an unbelievable start of the game, but then they come back in the game, and all of a sudden the general opinion is not as positive anymore."There are enough positives to take from this season. If you talk about open play goals, we've done much better in the first part of this season than the second part of last season."But there are also things we definitely have to improve.

I'm the first one to acknowledge that."Liverpool head coach Arne Slot. (Image: Andrew Powell/Liverpool FC via Getty Images)
