Slot slams ‘ridiculous goals’ conceded by Liverpool and inconsistent refereeing after loss to Man Utd

“Last week I saw my goalkeeper on the floor with an injury and the referee doesn’t stop the game. I see a player of United off the pitch today and the referee stops the game when we tried to play on.

“That has been our whole season, but the second goal we did not concede because of that handball, we conceded it because we lost the ball in a stupid position and we lost a few big moments after in duels.

“We have to first look at ourselves, let that be completely clear and obvious, but decisions every single game have gone against us. That’s also completely clear and obvious.

“When we played United in the first game of the season, I had one of my players with five stitches on the floor and the referee didn’t stop the game and we conceded.

“This is a complete pattern over the whole season but there’s also a pattern that we concede ridiculous goals when we are the better team, one or two switch off, and then we concede the goal.

“That is what we have more influence on so I should focus much more on that than on these refereeing decisions that go against us, but it’s clear that it’s the whole season the same.”
