JAKARTA - Arne Slot said Liverpool's performance was not good enough and was not sure the 0-3 defeat to Crystal Palace at the Carabao Cup on Thursday, October 30, 2025, early morning WIB, added pressure to his team.
Liverpool have now lost six of their last seven games in all competitions. Crystal Palace gave the latest defeat at Anfield thanks to goals from Ismaila Sarr and Yeremy Pino.
Arne Slot rested a number of senior players against Oliver Glasner's side, making 10 changes to the team that lost against Brentford last weekend.
"The defeat in football matches has always been a crushing blow, especially if it causes it to be eliminated from the tournament."
"However, it was the same choice as I did last season in a game like this. There may be many reasons why we lost six of our seven games."

"Not one of them is good enough to accept that much defeat. So, I could have put forward an argument or argument, but not a single one would be enough. In Liverpool, losing five or six, six or seven is always too heavy."
"If you're going through a streak of results like this, if you're playing for Liverpool, if you're training Liverpool, you know the pressure is there."
"I don't think it has changed much after this defeat. If it does change, then the most positive thing from tonight is our position when we are 0-2 behind and we are not too forced to score."
"The fans support the team. It gives me the feeling that on Sunday (November 2, 2025) when our players show how meaningful they are, our supporters will be very supportive," said Arne Slot.
Liverpool could be boosted by Ryan Gravenberch's return to fitness for this weekend's Premier League match against Aston Villa despite striker Alexander Isak - who was forced off the pitch due to a groin problem against Eintracht Frankfurt in the Champions League on October 22, 2025 - is still in doubt.
"I think Ryan has a good chance. The others, let's wait, see Friday. I don't know everything, but I think Ryan has the best chance of all (injured players)," said the Dutchman.
