Liverpool

The Football Association (FA) is reviewing an incident between opposing players during Arsenal's 3-2 over Liverpool win on Sunday.

"We are aware of an incident that took place during the match between Arsenal and Liverpool. Arsenal boss Arteta said in his postmatch news conference: "It was an incident that happened. We are in dialogue with the match officials and will review the details of the incident," an FA spokesperson said.

Sunday's 3-2 loss at Arsenal left Liverpool 10th in the Premier League table, and the numbers from their season so far make for grim reading.

Only Manchester City (13), Arsenal (12) and Tottenham (10) have won more points in that time. However, the Egyptian's scoring output has since been underwhelming with just two league goals in his first eight league appearances, with none at all in his last five games. Indeed, Salah's last Premier League goal came in a 2-1 defeat against Manchester United at Old Trafford on Aug. Since that fateful day, which led to Scott Parker being fired as manager, the Cherries are unbeaten in the Premier League and have collected nine points from five games under interim boss Gary O'Neil. Since then he's failed to notch against Bournemouth, Newcastle, Everton, Brighton and Arsenal. Liverpool have found themselves trailing at half-time on six occasions already this season having only been behind once at the break last term -- at Manchester City in April. The team went on to finish seventh in the table, 28 points behind champions In total, the Reds have already seen 14 points go begging this season. This comes after Klopp's side finished 23 points above the Gunners in last season's standings.

Mohamed Salah's Premier League struggles continued and Trent Alexander-Arnold was again exposed as Arsenal beat Liverpool 3-2 at the Emirates Stadium.

His sharpness got him away down the right, and his cross was perfect for Nunez to level at 1-1. Another swing on the Trent-o-meter, and this time in the negative direction. He managed only one shot and only one touch in the Arsenal penalty area, kept away from goal and away from the action.

Liverpool's Virgil van Dijk believes his team's confidence has been "creeping away", after they dropped to 10th in the Premier League table following ...

"We know in the league it's going to be quite a tough one but first we have to recover, look at ... That's the only thing to do and the only way forward." "We're all human beings and sometimes you need confidence in certain moments ...

Arsenal prove why they are top of the Premier League in a five goal thriller against a Liverpool side struggling for form.

Jürgen Klopp felt there were positives for Liverpool to draw from Sunday's 3-2 defeat at Arsenal but ultimately believes mistakes cost his side.

And we are not here for being happy with the situation we are in and stuff like this and thinking about last year and nearly there and nearly there – not at all, nobody of us is like that. We had to defend again on a high level and we tried to put Hendo on that side there. But what you build with your hand you knock down with your backside, that's not helpful and that's what we did today. But we will go out there and fight and that's what we have to do and that's what we will do. So we have problems in the moment but because the team in form, the leader of the table… The team in form played against the team not in form pretty much, and we played some good stuff and could have got a result. Of course, in a situation like ours, we play Arsenal, now we play Rangers obviously and then we play Man City, is that the perfect opponent for finding confidence back? We are in a tough moment and we want to get through this together and that's what we are working on. I understand it a little bit because it's a situation where we pass the ball forward, lose it and have a chance to win it back, Diogo nearly blocks the ball and if he can block the ball then I think we go the other way. Did we have to get used to it a bit more? I told the boys that we have to try to obviously cut off the two goals and build on the good stuff. 'Yeah, what are we doing?' But then the boys are convinced, 'Let's score a goal.' But we didn't, we conceded one on the other end.

“We did a lot of good things, scored two really nice goals and played really good stuff against the team in form in the league, because we are probably the team not in form in the league.” [Liverpool trailing in the wake of Arsenal and City and though Klopp is frustrated by his side’s slow start, he is not looking for excuses.] “We don’t have to look yet at the table but we know where we are without looking at it, so we are not done,” Klopp told Sky Sports after his side’s second defeat of the season.
