Virgil van Dijk on why Liverpool's defeat to Nottingham Forest needs to be a 'reality check' for Arne Slot's players
Virgil van Dijk says Saturday's 1-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest should act as a 'reality check' for Liverpool after three successive Premier League victories were brought to a sudden halt at Anfield . Callum Hudson-Odoi struck the winning goal as Arne Slot suffered his first loss since taking over as head coach.
That's the disappointing point of it. “It's difficult for me to say . Everyone is coming back from different places and playing a different way but still I think even today when we were not at our best we created chances and it should have gone better. 'But it is a performance we are definitely not happy with, we expect a lot better from ourselves and losing at home is something that can't happen. We have to turn it around pretty quickly and that will be the focus.
