Winless and an 'easy touch' - what's happened to the Anfield fear factor?
Liverpool's struggles at Anfield continue as Iraola still awaits his first Premier League win at Anfield.
In their recent Premier League match against Manchester City, Liverpool suffered a 3-0 defeat at Anfield, marking their third league loss in a row at home. The team's performance after Ryan Gravenberch's red card in the 62nd minute was poor, leading to their capitulation. Andoni Iraola, Liverpool's new manager, acknowledged that the club must improve and become a more formidable side at Anfield.
Former Liverpool defender Stephen Warnock noted that Liverpool is "an easy touch" at the moment, lacking the qualities of the best teams. Former Manchester United midfielder Paul Scholes and Nicky Butt commented on the dwindling reputation of Liverpool's intimidating presence at Anfield, suggesting that the fans may no longer have the same enthusiasm.
The team's attacking options are also a concern, with only seven goals scored this season, and only three of those coming at Anfield. The focus is now on getting the new signings to deliver and improving their performance in front of goal.
