Virgil van Dijk admitted that Liverpool's confidence is "creeping away" in the wake of their second defeat of the season away at Arsenal.
The Gunners took the lead twice at the Emirates, only to be pegged back by both times by the Reds before Bukayo Saka's penalty was the final blow to separate the two and hand the Gunners all three points courtesy of a 3-2 win. Van Dijk was brutally honest in his assessment of the performance after the game.
Jurgen Klopp's side got off to the worst possible start when Gabriel Martinelli fired the hosts in front within 58 seconds of the first whistle. Out of form Darwin Nunez pulled Liverpool level around half an hour in, but Saka was on hand to tap home from close range just before half-time to ensure Arsenal went in at the break leading.
