Frustrated Arne Slot says Liverpool must blame themselves as Reds boss slams lack of chances in stunning loss to Nottingham Forest

Premier League

Liverpool

Bournemouth

Brighton

Nottingham Forest

<p>Liverpool failed to score at home for just the second time in 2024, leaving Slot frustrated as his team gave away a 72nd minute winner to Nottingham Forest. The Dutch manager rued <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/liverpool-player-ratings-vs-nottingham-forest-mohamed-salah-stinker-arne-slot/bltf4a1f914e6fd31e1" target="_self">Liverpool's lack of control in the final third</a>, which saw his side lose possession deep in the Forest half, allowing Callum Hudson-Odoi the chance to finish off a counter attack for the winner.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>The result is Forest's first win at Anfield in 55 years, with their unbeaten start leaving them just one point behind Liverpool in the Premier League table after four games. Liverpool, meanwhile, remain second behind Manchester City, although Pep Guardiola's side now have a three-point lead over their rivals at the top of the division.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Slot said: "The result frustrates me the most and we cannot be happy about how the game went. It was a stop-start game and we hardly created any chances. We only have to look at ourselves, we have to be better. Far too many times we lost the ball around the area, it was not good enough. We have to be better with the ball.</p><p>"Our decisions and execution wasn't good enough. In general we defended quite well but the two fast players came on and made it difficult. We took a lot of risk and in the end it was a very good goal."</p>

WHAT SLOT SAID

<p>Liverpool will be looking to bounce back from their disappointing defeat when they travel to face AC Milan in the Champions League on Tuesday. Slot will then have a chance to make amends at Anfield in the Reds' following Premier League game against Bournemouth next weekend.</p>

WHAT NEXT FOR SLOT AND LIVERPOOL?
