Liverpool really only had themselves to blame when Aston Villa took a first-half lead at Anfield in front of the Kop.
The Reds had already conceded a penalty which was missed by Ollie Watkins, but their general all-round play was reminiscent of much of this season.
They were disjointed, passing wasn’t crisp and marking was often non-existent. So it was when Jacob Ramsey fired Villa in front.
Liverpool were unable to clear their lines and Trent Alexander-Arnold had completely forgotten about Ramsey who had come in around the back.
