Although Liverpool made many significant signings that ecstatically thrilled Kopites, I viewed this more as a concern before the season started: Players are massive, but can Liverpool really adapt to them quickly? Is the packed frontline a problem? And that's why we say the Premier League is the best in the world. Given the short timeframe for chemistry-building, Liverpool are facing real trouble.

After defeat to Galatasaray, Arne Slot insisted his side are not so far off the level of last season, but on the evidence of the 10 games so far this campaign that is far from the reality. The Turkish side scored via a rather soft penalty, but they created further chances in a very similar fashion to how Crystal Palace had sliced open the Merseysiders in their 2-1 win four days earlier.
