00:00Liverpool's hopes of regaining momentum have been dented once more
00:06after a shock Premier League defeat at Bournemouth
00:08following midweek Champions League success over Marseille.
00:14Manishot's side rallied from 2-0 down to 2-2 only to concede a late winner
00:18marking the fifth time this season they've surrendered points deep into stoppage time.
00:24The problems were glaring.
00:26Defensive lapses allowed Bournemouth to score twice in seven first half minutes
00:29with captain Virgil van Dijk's error and Minos Kerkhez being caught out at leading to goals.
00:35Offensively, creativity and fluency were lacking.
00:38Both Liverpool goals came from set pieces
00:40while the team struggled to generate shots on target despite 73% possession in the second half.
00:49Squad depth is under severe strain highlighting flaws in last summer's £450m recruitment strategy
00:55which prioritised two marquee signings rather than spreading resources
00:59to strengthen multiple areas.
01:02With contract uncertainties for Ibrahim Akarnate, Mohamed Salah, Chiesa and Gomez
01:07Liverpool will need significant investment and squad surgery this summer to remain competitive.
01:14As Champions League progress offers a silver lining, the reality is stark.
01:20Without urgent reinforcements, Liverpool risk watching their domestic ambitions unravel
01:24turning past glories into a cautionary tale.
