I&#8217;m trying to make it sound, but that&#8217;s obviously it&#8217;s useless. It can&#8217;t control all their fans. You can&#8217;t control 80,000 people.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t think this was planned, or it was the fan&#8217;s idea that made some noise. Maybe he didn&#8217;t know it was a silence. He was still happy and tried to cheer on his team, and the palace fans were trying to calm him down.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Meanwhile, Arne Slot has issued a harsh warning to Liverpool, claiming that if they want to regain a Premier League title this season, they must improve their defensive game. The Reds have led Crystal Palace to a penalty shootout loss despite a two-time lead in the match as the reigning slot champion struggled in the season opener.<\/p>\n<p>Liverpool is a big spender this summer, firing a whopping \u00a3295 million on fresh talent and is even rumoured to be watching palace defender Mark Guech.<\/p>\n<p>However, Slots expressed dissatisfaction with the team&#8217;s preseason defensive performance ahead of the campaign&#8217;s launch next Friday.<\/p>\n<p>He said: &#8220;We have confirmed four against Milan, one against the Japanese team, two against Bilbao, and two against today.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>\u201cWhat really made us stronger last season was that we mostly won by goals or one goal margin.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It mainly had to do with holding a clean sheet or acknowledging one of the biggest goals.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Liverpool reportedly aims to strengthen their defense as Marc Guech is a potential target, but they are also prepared to break the UK transfer record to secure Alexander Isaac positively.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Despite new recruit Hugo Ekitike finding the back of the net, Slot feels the team lacks offensive options following the departure of Darwinnes and Lewis Diaz.<\/p>\n<p>He added:<\/p>\n<p>Liverpool and the Palace paid tribute to Diogo Jota and his brother Andre Silva, who tragically lost their lives in a car accident before the match began last month.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/sport\/football\/2093568\/Liverpool-Virgil-van-Dijk-Diogo-Jota\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Liverpool and the Palace paid tribute to Diogo Jota and his brother Andre Silva.
