00:00 Liverpool have been haunted in the past when they were chasing the title by Crystal Palace.
00:07 It happened again on the weekend. A massive loss at home but it's also off the back of
00:14 a poor result against Man United and then a shocking result in the Europa League anfield as well.
00:20 It seems that it's almost falling apart at the back end of the season now. They've got to pick themselves up.
00:27 They've got a massive tie at Atlanta and they need to go pretty much flawless now to be within a chance of the title.
00:34 Liverpool were rightly lauded when they had all the injury problems.
00:41 When Salah was absent, Alexander-Arnold, Bozlai, Alisson, they kept going.
00:47 The grinding out results, the youngsters stepped up but it looks like the squad has been stretched and it's coming home to roost now.
00:57 Unfortunately, there's not a lot that Liverpool can do about it. They just look tired against Crystal Palace.
01:02 Players like Alexis McAllister, Otaro, Endo, they just looked eight yards off it.
01:10 It's come at the wrong time because Liverpool can afford mistakes at this time of the season.
01:17 Let's be honest with you, does anyone expect Manchester City to drop any points?
01:22 Probably not. It's the initiative's theirs now and Arsenal, albeit they've had a blip against Villa,
01:28 maybe a little bit of a bogey team for them, losing Villa-Parc early in the season.
01:34 What they've shown this season, it wouldn't surprise us if they won the rest of their games.
01:40 Liverpool have got to be perfect and even that might not be good enough to go to Atalanta.
01:45 Liverpool know all about European miracles. The last two that have happened in the A-game,
01:50 Klopp with Akbar at Anfield, now they've got to go to Atalanta where it's going to be difficult.
01:56 Liverpool have got to take the initiative to them.
01:58 I think what we've seen in the first leg, Atalanta will be quite happy to play on the counter-attack,
02:02 even though they're at home, I don't think they'll care.
02:05 It's difficult to see them not scoring if they put in a performance like they did at Anfield.
02:10 It's disappointing the way it has unravelled.
02:15 I keep saying this, if Liverpool fans would have been in this position at the start of the season,
02:21 they'd have definitely taken it. Maybe not being 3-0 behind at the Europa League quarter-finals,
02:26 but in terms of the lead position, I think Liverpool have overachieved to be quite honest with you.
