LIVERPOOL, England (AP) \u2014 Defending Premier League champions Liverpool parted ways with set-piece coach Aaron Briggs on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

liverpool said<\/span> Briggs “stepped back from his role” after joining as part of coach Arn Slott’s backroom staff last July, he said in a brief statement posted on his website.<\/p>\n

Liverpool added: “He leaves with the thanks and best wishes of everyone at the club.”<\/p>\n

Liverpool have had a shaky start to their title defense, losing six and conceding 26 goals in 18 games, compared to just four league defeats last season.<\/p>\n

In Saturday’s nervy 2-1 home win against bottom-placed Wolverhampton, the visitors scored from a corner kick, and after the match Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk highlighted Liverpool’s continued problems from set-pieces.<\/p>\n

Liverpool next face Leeds at Anfield on Thursday. ___<\/p>\n
