Liverpool managed a late 1-0 win over Burnley on September 14, 2025, thanks to a stoppage-time penalty from Mohamed Salah. However, the overall team performance left much to be desired, with many fans sharply criticizing some players.
Despite scoring the winning goal, Salah came under fire from supporters who felt his display was lackluster and ineffective. Social media was filled with complaints, with some fans saying it felt like Liverpool was playing with one player less due to his poor form.
Manager Arne Slot made an early substitution, removing left-back Milos Kerkez after just 37 minutes following a yellow card and multiple fouls. Andy Robertson replaced him and had a positive impact, a move that was widely praised.
Though Liverpool eventually secured the win, their attacking play was sluggish, struggling to break through Burnley’s defence until the final moments. The late penalty awarded after a handball by a Burnley substitute secured the victory but highlighted ongoing concerns about the team’s overall cohesion and performance consistency.
As Liverpool looks ahead to their next Champions League match against Atletico Madrid, fans hope to see a stronger and more unified display.
