Premier League leaders Liverpool began the new year with a difficult trip to Southampton and dropped three big points in a 1-0 defeat that takes Jurgen Klopp’s side to three matches without a win following two draws to Newcastle United and West Brom.
In addition, Liverpool is currently under its longest spell without a goal since Jurgen Klopp took over the team.
On a more positive side for Liverpool, Thiago Alcantara returned to the starting lineup for the first time since October and played a positive role as the distributor throughout the game.
