Liverpool suffered a 0-3 defeat to Manchester City in the Premier League. Vice-captain Andrew Robertson stated that the team's most important task at present is not to discuss the title race, but to regain consistent performance and improve their overall level of play.
Before the match, Liverpool faced the defending champions with a strong momentum from two consecutive clean sheets, but failed to maintain their form at the Etihad Stadium. Robertson frankly stated that the team was in a difficult situation, but emphasized that the more crucial issue was consistency in performance.
In the post-match interview, Robertson said, "Obviously, we've put ourselves in a very difficult situation, but I don't think any team is paying attention to the standings before the halfway point of the season. We need to be more consistent in getting points. We'll see where we are around Christmas."
When asked about the discussions surrounding Liverpool's title aspirations, Robertson remained calm: "It's too early to talk about winning the title at the beginning of the season, no matter where you are in the standings. But if we can't win consistently, then there's no point in talking about the title. This isn't a topic that the dressing room would discuss."
Despite the team's setbacks, Robertson remains confident in a rebound, citing previous performances against Aston Villa and Real Madrid as benchmarks. Robertson stated, "We need to get back to the level we know we can achieve, especially based on the performances of the last two games."
"We had hoped to end a strong week with a victory, but things didn't go as planned. We were making progress, but then we suffered a setback. Now what we need to do is focus on ourselves, focus on our performance, and the other issues will naturally follow."
