Liverpool chief coach Arne slot says he could do a lot better after losing to Plymouth FA Cup.
The second half punishment was a difference in the game, but the Reds fought to create a chance on 0-0.
After a week of highlights after making the Carabao Cup final again, the groove swallowed a modest cake without complaint.
He said, “I think they are better. But it is a system and style of playing [from Plymouth] which is quite difficult to create a chance against
“We saw that today. I was not surprised because we saw a lot of long balls in the lead to this game, other balls, and if we had a ball, they were really aggressive. That was expected.
“It’s not always easy to create his own chances when he hasn’t played with each other so many times. We expected that they would play a better game than this one, but we have to give merit and Plymouth.
🗣️ “A great game from Plymouth, they deserve all the credit for their performance today.”

“I think it hurts me. It includes Liverpool fans, me, players. We all wanted to be in this competition for as long as possible. If you go out in the first possible game, it’s a sad way.
“They fought today until the last second. Maybe the only chances we created were in the last five, 10, 15 minutes. It was not a work rate problem, they really worked hard but couldn’t find openings and couldn’t find the chances .
“We just have to continue to do the work rate the same. We need to be a little more creative in the next games.”
