Graeme Souness sends blunt message to Liverpool players and addresses 'confidence' issue

Liverpool Graeme Souness Jurgen Klopp Ibrahim Adel Mohamed Salah Philippe Coutinho UEFA Champions League Anfield FC Barcelona

Graeme Souness believes Liverpool’s players need to take a long look at themselves following an underwhelming start to the season.

Though Liverpool preserved their 19-month unbeaten home record having fought back from 2-0 down against Brighton, the Reds were still held to a frustrating draw at home on Saturday afternoon. Leandro Trossard grabbed a hat-trick as Jurgen Klopp’s side dropped more points.

The chances of Liverpool bringing the Premier League crown back to Anfield for the second time under Klopp look to be a distant dream, with the Reds currently 11 points behind leaders Arsenal in the table. Next up for the Reds is a Champions League clash against Anfield and Souness believes Liverpool’s players need to inject more energy into the performances.
