Lacklustre Liverpool have already lost more times than all of last season - in just 11 games
- Forest beat Liverpool for first time since 1996
- Former Red Taiwo Awoniyi scores winner
- Third PL loss this season for Klopp
WHAT HAPPENED? The Reds travelled to the City Ground for the early kick-off on Saturday, but left empty-handed as Steve Cooper's side eked out a hugely important 1-0 win; just their second of the season.
THE BIGGER PICTURE: Defeat for Liverpool means they have lost three of their 11 Premier League games played this season, which is more than they lost in the entirety of the 2021-22 campaign (two in 38).
IN TWO PHOTOS:
DID YOU KNOW? Liverpool have never won in six Premier League visits to the City Ground (D3, L3).
THE VERDICT:
After two positive steps, a serious backwards one for Liverpool.#LFC 🔴https://t.co/7hPPJlnopW

Beating Manchester City one week and losing to the bottom team the next is unfortunately very Liverpool at the moment. Disjointed performance with a complete lack of any composure or class around the opponent's box. Incredibly frustrating once again.

Steve Cooper has changed Forest in the last few weeks to be a lot harder to beat, tactically very good again today.

Liverpool were awful, what is going on with Fabinho 🤯 Konate is needed back ASAP!
WHAT NEXT FOR LIVERPOOL? The Reds face a trip to Amsterdam in the midweek to take on Ajax in the Champions League, in an unlikely battle to wrestle top spot away from Napoli in the group stages.
