It was their third defeat in three games and leaves their season in tatters. They were thrashed by Manchester City in the FA Cup on Saturday and will struggle to qualify for the Champions League unless their form in the Premier League improves. With important players out of form, some nearing the exit door and their talisman Mohamed Salah not used from the bench, has Arne Slot’s team run out of steam?
