One of the top teams in the English Premier League for a while now has been Jürgen Klopp’s Liverpool. They have consistently put up a fight against Manchester City for the championship, but things are different this year. Liverpool is now outside of the top four, and it doesn’t appear like they will conclude the season in the top four either.
This raises the question of what might be to blame for Liverpool’s dismal season-long performance. We will outline the most likely explanations for Liverpool’s underwhelming performance in this post.
1. Mohamed Salah gave a poor effort; this season, he hasn’t been as productive as he usually is. Last season, he enjoyed scoring goals, but this season, he is having trouble getting shots off.

2. Virgil Van Dijk played poorly on defense. Although he is regarded as one of the top defenders in the world, his performance this season would not have justified that claim. He hasn’t played well this season. Undoubtedly, this is a factor in the team’s dismal performance.
3. Sadio Mané’s departure; Mané was a well-known footballer for Liverpool. He left Liverpool to join Bayern Munich, and Liverpool has not been as competitive since. It is apparent that his leaving is to blame for this subpar performance. Darwin Nez, who took over for him, has not integrated well with the group.
