Set-piece failure a threat to top-four dreams, says Slot
December 27, 2025
|The Straits Times
Liverpool manager Arne Slot believes his side are damaging their own hopes of a top-four finish in the Premier League because of a poor record at set pieces.
-
The reigning champions head into the busy Christmas and New Year period behind fourth-placed Chelsea on goal difference. They take on bottom side Wolverhampton Wanderers next at Anfield on Dec 27.
The Reds have scored just three set-piece goals while conceding 11 in the league this season, with the Dutchman saying: "I know the importance of it, it gets more and more, and that's why we are so annoyed by our current record.
"It's a big frustration we are where we are this season because when we were halfway through last season we had not conceded one set piece (goal).
"It’s impossible to be top four, top five with our set-piece balance, let alone winning the league.”
