Liverpool

Jürgen Klopp conceded Liverpool were suffering a crisis of confidence after dropping points for the fifth time in seven Premier League games with a 3-3 draw ...

When I say he can do even better it is not because I am not happy about his game but because I consider him a great player.” “He played a great game but I believe he can do even better. “We had confident moments – Bobby for the second goal – but the passing game was not good. We want to do much better, have more points, improve in the table and then we are 2-0 down against a really good opponent. You get that with top defending, and we didn’t have that. It was the first by a visiting player at Anfield in 13 years.

(Xinhua) Liverpool's goalkeeper Alisson Becker (3rd L) complains to the referee after Brighton & Hove Albion's opening goal during the English Premier League match between Liverpool and Brighton & Hove Albion in Liverpool, Britain, on Oct. In the day's last game, West Ham beat Wolverhampton 2-0 thanks to goals from Gianluca Scamacca after 29 minutes and Jarrod Bowen in the 54th minute.

Roberto Firmino scored twice in Liverpool's draw with Brighton, but Trent Alexander-Arnold was again at fault in defence.

A former Crystal Palace player came back to haunt them as they had a point snatched away from them in the dying minutes against Chelsea. The Gunners went out to an early lead thanks to Thomas Partey, but it was short-lived as Spurs equalised through a Harry Kane penalty. Brighton would have the last laugh as Trossard popped up once again and completed a well-deserved hat-trick.

Roberto Firmino shone and Trent Alexander-Arnold struggled as Liverpool drew 3-3 with Brighton in the Premier League at Anfield.

The winger had only trained with the team once prior to this game, having returned from international duty late on Thursday morning. He had to be, to beat Alisson Becker, who was in superb form for Liverpool. He was superb here, quick of foot and mind, causing untold problems for Trent Alexander-Arnold with his movement and, when the chances came, clinical with his finishing.

Any positive result out of this game will be amazing for The Reds, but a win could kickstart their season.

Liverpool fans did something Jurgen Klopp doesn't like against Brighton and it shows that reset is needed to get season back on track.

Putting in the victories of champions, the Reds could be trailing in the 89th minute yet they’d still find a way to turn such matches into victories. It’s clear that something is not right at Liverpool or at Anfield, with both players and atmosphere a pale imitation of what we have been treated to in recent times. Little over a month later, Divock Origi would scored a 96th minute equaliser against West Bromwich Albion and Liverpool’s manager and squad celebrated together, hand-in-hand, in front of the Kop. Klopp’s side might have won every major honour going during his time at Anfield, and so nearly delivered an unprecedented quadruple last season, but they need to rediscover their mojo and fast. Meanwhile, once Brighton had equalised in the 83rd minute and Anfield started to empty, it never felt like a dramatic Reds victory would be on the cards. “After the goal on 82 minutes, with 12 minutes to go, I saw many people leaving the stadium,” he said in November 2015. Their title hopes might already be done as a result, but if they are not careful they risk missing out on next season’s Champions League. They have reasons [for leaving] and maybe it is easier to go out, I don’t know. For much of Klopp’s reign his side, and subsequently fans, have boasted a never-say-die attitude that has currently deserted them. I cannot say I was 100% convinced that we would not concede a goal at 3-2 up.” When fighting back after trailing against Fulham and Crystal Palace, the belief that victory would follow has been lacking. With a rocked Anfield understandably subdued, the travelling support wasted no time in mocking their lack of atmosphere.

In a pulsating 3-3 draw at home to Brighton & Hove Albion, Jurgen Klopp's side ranged from disastrous to an encouraging revival before that sinking feeling set ...

For most of Klopp’s reign, Liverpool have been excellent in both. They continue to look a shadow of their former selves both tactically and mentally.

Liverpool's mixed start to the season continued with a 3-3 draw against Brighton at Anfield on Saturday afternoon. Virgil van Dijk had some thoughts on ...

Defending starts from the front and attacking starts from the back, and that's how we have our principles, and we have to get back to that, to that consistency, and yeah… "We have to find that moment, and obviously we know we have tough games ahead: Rangers in the Champions League, then Arsenal, Rangers, [Manchester] City, is it West Ham? "You have to get in the moment, and that consistency is the most difficult part of football. When pushed on why it is not working quite as well this time around, Van Dijk added: "Pressure, and that is always what we try to do: get in the right spaces and do it all together. And we have to stick together. "Obviously, we changed that a little bit as well and you know, it's difficult.
