Frustrating for players who came back and in football you can slip [Dominik Szoboszlai], but it's so unfortunate. Virgil van Dijk has now scored more headed goals for Liverpool in the Premier League than any other player (22), netting twice in a league game tonight for the first time since November 2019 versus Brighton.

Liverpool boss Arne Slot speaking to BBC MOTD : "After 2-1 it went away from us.

"At 1-1 we were close to going 2-1 and then conceding the goal at 2-1 the way we conceded the goal is something we haven't had this season yet.

We have conceded a lot of goals this season which you'd find hard to believe unless you live it and that's what we did today. Villa were the better team after that and the game went away from us. "It's not about me or how frustrated I am it's frustrating for everyone involved - players, staff and definitely fans.

Frustrating for players who came back and in football you can slip [Dominik Szoboszlai], but it's so unfortunate. That is something that's probably part of our season. We know what to do next week.
