EFL Cup 2016/17: Liverpool 0-1 Southampton (0-2 agg), 5 talking points

Southampton advance to the final, where they will play Manchester United or Hully City

#5 Everything going wrong for Liverpool

Liverpool have now lost two consecutive home games

Before the game against Swansea, Liverpool had not lost a game at Anfield in over a year; after their loss against Southampton, they have now lost two successive games in the space of five days.

Although Daniel Sturridge looked lively and the attack was not as toothless as it was in the first leg, things seem to have fallen apart for Klopp’s men since the loss to Bournemouth. Not only are they 10 points behind league leaders Chelsea, there might be a possibility that they will see bitter rivals Manchester United lift a trophy that very well could have been theirs.

With the title challenge looking over, all Liverpool fans will be hoping for is a top 4 finish and Champions League football next season, with maybe a glimpse of hope in the FA Cup. As things stand, though, everything is going wrong at Anfield and the return of Sadio Mane cannot come soon enough.
