Liverpool manager Arne Slot admitted it was “clear where we need to improve” after his side suffered a painful 3-2 defeat to Manchester United at Old Trafford.
Despite fighting back from two goals down through Dominik Szoboszlai and Cody Gakpo, Liverpool were unable to hold on as Kobbie Mainoo struck late to hand United all three points.
The result dealt a blow to Liverpool’s push for Champions League qualification and left Slot frustrated with his team’s overall performance.
Speaking after the match, the Dutch coach acknowledged that Liverpool still have areas to work on if they are to compete consistently at the highest level next season.
The defeat also confirmed Manchester United’s place in next season’s UEFA Champions League, while Liverpool’s qualification hopes remain in the balance heading into the final fixtures of the campaign.
