Liverpool star Jeremy Frimpong admitted his team “didn’t try hard enough” in their disastrous draw with Leeds. The Reds faced the Yorkshire side at Anfield on Thursday night, which ended in a 0-0 draw.<\/p>\n
Arne Slot’s side struggled to create any notable chances throughout the game, but were somewhat fortunate to pick up one point. Leeds had a number of great chances, but Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s late goal was also canceled out by the linesman’s flag.<\/p>\n
After the full-time whistle, summer signing Frimpong admitted Liverpool had not done enough to claim victory.<\/p>\n
The Dutchman told Sky Sports: “It’s frustrating. We wanted to win the game. They defended well. In the end, it was 0-0, which is very disappointing, but we’ll move on to the next game.”<\/p>\n
“They defended us really well. Of course we tried, but we didn’t try hard enough. We had some (chance) and I think we should have delivered the ball more.”<\/p>\n

“We trained, we recovered, we know what we can do. We’ve created a lot of chances. We need to go into the next game and do better at what we have to do. We know what we have to do, we know the movements, we know the patterns.”<\/p>\n
Liverpool’s shaky run of form continued with the draw with Leeds. They currently sit fourth in the Premier League, six points behind Aston Villa.<\/p>\n
Arne Slott gave his verdict after the match, claiming that Liverpool’s defeat was due to a lack of chances. He said, “Last time it was different because we conceded a goal in overtime, but the final result of both games was a draw, which is disappointing.”<\/p>\n

What has gone wrong for Liverpool this season? Share your thoughts in the comments section below<\/p>\n
\u201cFrom every possession we have, not for the first time this season, we are creating chances, but I don’t think it’s enough and if you look at xG it should be enough, but we should be able to create more.<\/p>\n
“We were very close to Virgil but it didn’t happen. We’ve conceded goals a lot this season in games like this, but today it was a positive. We kept a clean sheet so we got a draw today.”<\/p>\n
Liverpool are back in action this weekend when they travel to Craven Cottage to take on Fulham. They then take on leaders Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium before turning their attention to the FA Cup and League One third round tie against Barnsley.<\/p>\n
