Pat Nevin says Liverpool must become a well-drilled team before even thinking about winning the Premier LeagueAlthough things haven’t been at their best for the last few games with Liverpool, the fact that they’re second in the Premier League shows how well they’ve actually done. And now, while speaking to BBC Sport, former Everton man Pat Nevin has given his thoughts on what Liverpool need to do so that they can secure the Premier League title.



“Three defeats in three have not quite got the alarm bells ringing at Anfield, though Liverpool clearly have a few problems,” he said.“Florian Wirtz, Alexander Isak and Mohamed Salah have not yet gelled as a unit.“They look more like a group of ultra-talented individuals than a well-drilled team, and this must change if they are going to defend their title.”Arne Slot must figure out a way to get his Liverpool team to gel soonIndividually, Liverpool have some of the world’s best players among their ranks. The likes of Florian Wirtz, Alexander Isak, and Mohamed Salah would get into almost any team across the globe, with many expecting Liverpool to be untouchable this term.

This is a massive concern because, if things don’t get better soon, they may as well kiss their title hopes goodbye.
