Liverpool have now lost six straight home games in the Premier League and Roy Keane says that it is officially ‘crisis time’.
The Premier League champions are now in eighth place after losing to Fulham. And this was no smash-and-grab win; Fulham were the better team.
This latest defeat led Jamie Carragher to call them ‘mentality midgets’, while Keane was equally as damning.
“The biggest worry I’d have for Liverpool is that to me is they’re not playing as a team,” said Keane.
“The signs have been there for the last few months, you’re thinking ‘are they really that bad?’… It’s crisis time for Liverpool now.
“They are not playing as a team and that should be the manager’s biggest worry.”
Meanwhile, former Liverpool midfielder Graeme Souness remains baffled by this drop in form, saying:
“When you’re a player and you win a big trophy, that’s parked. Enjoy it for a week. Then every day you’re laying on a beach you think about the challenges coming ahead.
“I’d say some of those players haven’t done that. ‘Let’s enjoy the moment, it may never happen to us again.’
“It’s all about winning it again, and again, and again.
“It’s unfathomable. It beggars belief how a team can go from so good to so average. It’s ok asking questions about the manager but it’s about the players.
“Jurgen Klopp has found out in this moment in time what he’s got in his dressing room. Some of them haven’t stood up to the challenge.”
