Overview
- Alexis Mac Allister told Sky Sports there are not many chances of retaining the Premier League and said Liverpool “changed too many things” last summer.
- Head coach Arne Slot acknowledged Liverpool should not look at the top two right now, accepting Arsenal and Manchester City are “quite far away.”
- Liverpool reached the halfway mark in fourth place after a 0-0 draw with Leeds, underscoring the gap to the leaders.
- The summer rebuild brought seven to eight first‑team signings for roughly £446m, but integration has been slow and performances inconsistent.
- Setbacks include Alexander Isak’s broken leg sidelining him for months and the pre-season death of Diogo Jota, with the club now prioritising the Champions League and FA Cup.
