Liverpool's potential to win the Premier League is clear, but recent performances, particularly a defeat by Fulham, indicate critical areas needing improvement. Fulham showcased talent and resilience, highlighting the competitive nature of the league. For coach Arne Slot, while there have been signs of progress, such as adjustments to Liverpool's gameplay, the team still struggles with defensive lapses. As Liverpool moves forward in the season, with challenging fixtures against teams like West Ham, the need for strategic growth and player management remains essential for maintaining their title pursuit.
"Collecting silverware while requiring further growth and repair can be taken as a positive sign, as Liverpool navigates the challenges of the current season."
"Fulham, enjoying their football perhaps because any pressures are now lifted, reminded top-tier English football is full of quality that laurels can never be rested on."
"Slot's most obvious alteration to Jurgen Klopp's team has been to add a change of gear, hence that added durability, though even his team now requires patching up."
"Liverpool began the game scratchily and grabbed their lead from almost nothing, demonstrating the unpredictability expected in football, even from established teams."
