Andy Robertson has explained that Liverpool have been trying to improve ahead of facing Wolverhampton Wanderers for the second time in less than a week.The Reds suffered a 2-1 loss at the hands of Rob Edwards’ side on Tuesday evening, seeing them slip out of the Champions League places as a result.Liverpool now clash with Wolves in the FA Cup, with a six-figure windfall heading the winner’s way, and Robertson says his team know they need to ‘play a lot better’ than they did last time out, and have been working towards that goal in training. If Gakpo and Salah aren’t to blame for their poor form, then who is? 🤔 Slot was quick to move any blame away from Gakpo after being asked about one goal in nine games…Credit: Molly Darlington/Getty Images Andy Robertson says Liverpool working on improving their game before Wolves FA Cup clashSpeaking to BBC Sport, he said: “We know we need to play a lot better than we did the other night to get anything out of the game.“And that’s what we’ve been working towards since Tuesday night.
Hopefully, we can go and show that on Friday night.”Defeat on Friday evening would mean Liverpool’s domestic season is largely over, with nothing left to play for but the Champions League.Despite the recent struggles, Arne Slot is not under pressure right now, though it remains to be seen what will happen in the summer.Slot also commented on the midweek Wolves defeat when speaking live at his press conference this week and agreed with Robertson that Liverpool ‘have to be better’.He said: “A game which was not so difficult to analyse. Enough chances to win the game but we didn’t convert it into goals.
It was hard to take but we’re one day away from another really important game for us. We know we have to be better tomorrow.”Florian Wirtz could return against Wolves, which would give the Reds a boost, though the German is not expected to be fit enough to start.Join Our NewsletterReceive a digest of our best Liverpool content each week direct to your mailbox
