The management pep talk with Arne Slot seems to be working as his side managed a victory away to West Ham United.

Liverpool Fc have had one of the worst title defence campaigns but not too far from making a comeback as they lag behind league leaders with nine (9) points.

On a night when all was at stake for Arne Slot, one of his expensive signing showed up with a sumptuous goal. Liverpool Fc went all out against West Ham United who are currently rebuilding under new manager Nuno Espírito Santo.

Liverpool Fc did not get is easy against West Ham United as the Hammers also fought to escape the relegation zone. It took Arne Slot and his team an hour to break the deadlock.

Alexander Isak who has been one of the notable signings for the club yet produced nothing exceptional rose to the occasion with a fine finish in the 60’. His first EPL goal for the season Isak.

Bowen came close to grabbing an equaliser but his effort went wide with the player himself locked in disbelief. It got more exciting after West Ham United were reduced to ten (10) men in an avoidable situation.

Lucas Paqueta got on the wrong side of referee Darren England after Niclas Fuellkrug got penalised for shoving Dominic Szoboszlai in the back. Paqueta was dissent in the 83’ after which play was stopped to get a message across to the players.

Lucas Paqueta who was not satisfied with him being booked walked to England with his rants only to be given a second booking for dissent and sent off.

This was a day Liverpool never dreamt of, a blessing in disguise. Liverpool had a couple of minutes to play with a man advantage and it paid off in added time when Kody Gakpo who was all over the pitch got his goal in the 90+6’ to make it 0-2 for Liverpool before Darren England ended proceedings.

Liverpool now sit 8th on the league log with 21 points after thirteen (13) games.
