Jurgen Klopp has been warned that Liverpool "lack courage" in attack when Thiago Alcantara and Trent Alexander-Arnold are not playing.
The Reds have endured a disappointing start to the season, with a defeat at rock-bottom Nottingham Forest the latest low point of their campaign. Having only won four of their 11 games so far, they are all but out of the title race, with leaders Arsenal already 11 points ahead with a game in hand.
At the heart of their problems has been a raft of injuries across their squad, which has seriously impeded Klopp's efforts to spark a turnaround. It appeared that the Reds had finally kickstarted their season with a dominant win over Rangers and a defeat of Manchester City last week.
