According to Neville, regrouping is necessary for Klopp’s men to make sure that the damage being done at the moment doesn’t cause long-standing damage to the team’s confidence. He however admits that Liverpool is a great team with great players, as it’s not possible to achieve what they have been able to achieve without being a fantastic team.
Liverpool has lost everything, Their speed of play and confidence is all lost and Neville noted that the players’ determination and resilience to win when they weren’t playing well is now lacking in a team, which made Anfield a difficult place to go for other teams.
