Liverpool have been told by a former player what could be an ‘issue’ for them in finishing in the Premier League’s top four.
The Reds have made an inconsistent start to this season, having picked up just nine points from their first six league fixtures. That form has left them six points adrift of leaders Arsenal.
Jurgen Klopp’s side will not play a league match until October 1, when Brighton, visit Anfield, having had their fixtures against Wolves and Chelsea postponed. That could mean that Liverpool fall further adrift of the Premier League’s summit by the time they are next in action.
