Liverpool fear factor

Liverpool has had a rough start to their Premier League campaign this season as they have managed to grab only 16 points while they have played 11 games so far, Their recent defeat to Nottingham Forest highlights the agonizing problems they need to address if they are to revive their domestic campaign.

The former Manchester United player Dwight Yorke has his say on Liverpool’s current form and with them losing their fear factor.

“I think there are a number of reasons. There are new players and teams are working them out a little bit – the Premier League is a fierce competition and every team can pose problems for you. Tactically, the level is so high in the league and I think managers have found ways to exploit some of the weaknesses in this Liverpool team”.

“The age of the squad is getting a bit older, and with the way that they play, relentless pressing, physically that will take a toll. They had an amazing five-year period where you could guarantee they would challenge for everything but it looks like that might be coming to the end of that cycle as a squad”. Dwight Yorke

Liverpool will be looking to turn the tide as soon as possible in order to become potential title contenders however in a bid to rediscover their fine form the Reds will have to bring in new players who can inject more zeal into the current squad.
