"Same old story. Recently, we are picking up points because we score many times from set-pieces, but what didn't change in the last five, six seven games is that we struggle and find it very hard to score from open play chances that we do create. Not as much as I would like from all the ball possession we have, but enough and far more than the other team."
"We have had far more possession than the other team, we have created more in open play in general than the other team, but have struggled to score from open play. Recently we have scored a lot from set-pieces. Again we had a lot of set-pieces, but in the first half were very poorly taken."
"That has happened to us so many times this season. That it happened in injury time may be a coincidence, although it has happened so many times. We hardly gave away a chance today, but the one we conceded wasn't even a chance."
Liverpool suffered a 2-1 defeat to Wolverhampton Wanderers, conceding a deflected strike in the 94th minute. This loss represents Liverpool's fifth goal conceded after the 90th minute this season, the most by any team in a single Premier League campaign. Manager Arne Slot described the result as the "same old story," highlighting Liverpool's persistent struggle to convert open-play chances despite dominating possession and creating opportunities. While Liverpool has recently scored frequently from set-pieces, they continue to struggle with finishing from open play. Slot noted the team created clear chances late in the match but failed to capitalize, ultimately losing to a goal that came from minimal defensive pressure.
