Liverpool are back in the Carabao Cup final for the second successive season, with Newcastle standing in their way.
The first half couldn’t have been worse for Slot’s men, who had no shots on target and were struggling to create any real chances.
Newcastle’s Dan Burn stunned Liverpool even more, scoring his first goal in 54 games to put Newcastle ahead in the Carabao Cup final.
The Liverpool fans were absolutely frustrated with their team’s performance, particularly Diogo Jota.
Here’s their reaction on X:
‘Jota has been awful for 3 games and still starts. Nunez scores 2 in one game and still doesn’t even get a chance after that. Diaz, Jota off, Gakpo, Nunez On’.
‘Slot should be embarrassed for starting Jota’.
‘If you’re playing long balls you need to have Darwin. Don’t get what Jota has done to start ahead of him’.
‘Jota is done at this level. Passenger. Off to Saudi with you in the summer’.
‘Jota’s playing like he’s been told he’s out the door in 3 months time’.
