Jamie Carragher has compared Liverpool to the Arsenal teams that struggled under Arsene Wenger after Brentford condemned them to a chastening 3-1 defeat on Monday night.
The Bees, who were without talisman Ivan Toney, had plenty of joy against Liverpool's beleaguered defence and took a deserved lead in the 19th minute when the ball deflected into the goal off of Ibrahima Konate from a corner. Moments after having a strike rule out, Yoane Wissa doubled Brentford's advantage on the stroke of half-time. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain scored early in the second-half but Bryan Mbeumo killed the game with a clinical finish in the final minutes.
Liverpool's performance left Carragher, who was analysing and commentating on the match, deeply concerned - and he insisted that Jurgen Klopp's side need to address their midfield issues.
