'The title is slipping away' - Liverpool 'will start worrying about top four' after Burnley humbling, says Carragher

Liverpool "will start worrying about the top four" after their humbling at the hands of Burnley, according to Jamie Carragher, who says "the title is slipping away".

The Reds missed the chance to close the gap on Premier League leaders Manchester United to three points after suffering a surprise home loss to the Clarets on Thursday night.

Klopp's side were protecting a 68-game unbeaten record at Anfield , the second longest streak in top-flight history, but the visitors ended that run after an impressive performance which saw Ashley Barnes seal a 1-0 victory from the penalty spot in the latter stages of the game.
