Frankfurt manager insists Liverpool superior in all matches during poor run

Eintracht Frankfurt manager Dino Toppmoeller claimed that Liverpool have dominated every encounter throughout their recent four game defeat sequence as his squad gears up to face the Merseyside outfit in the Champions League on Wednesday.

The current Premier League title holders Liverpool find themselves in an unexpected downturn despite strengthening their roster with almost 450 million pounds which equates to 604 million dollars in fresh acquisitions during the recent transfer window.

Under Arne Slot Liverpool fell to a 2 1 reverse against fierce rivals Manchester United on Sunday following losses to Crystal Palace Galatasaray and Chelsea. This marks their first such quartet of successive defeats in over ten years.

In his press briefing on Tuesday Toppmoeller noted that the weekend clash could easily have ended 4 2 in favour of Liverpool and stressed that the visitors are lacking peak condition solely in terms of outcomes.

The 44 year old remarked that upon reviewing the fixtures which his team naturally scrutinised they appear to be missing some vigour currently.

However in each contest they have outperformed their opponents and generated superior scoring opportunities.

We anticipate facing an elite calibre side tomorrow Toppmoeller added pointing out that the English title winners will reach Frankfurt with intense drive.

One must consider the psychological toll of enduring four straight losses on any squad.

Liverpools previous run of four consecutive defeats occurred back in November 2014 during Brendan Rodgers tenure as head coach.

A key concern for the team revolves around the reduced output from key attacker Mo Salah.

Yet Toppmoeller praised the Egyptian as likely one of the premier three talents globally over the last ten years and maintained that status persists.

Another player underperforming is German playmaker Florian Wirtz signed for 100 million pounds who now returns to his native land for the initial occasion since his summer switch from Bayer Leverkusen to Liverpool.

Toppmoeller described Wirtzs displays as solid although his goal contributions fall short of his Leverkusen tally.

He operates in an environment of intense scrutiny with global audiences constantly tuned in.

I remain utterly persuaded by his talent. Naturally we hope he holds back from demonstrating it tomorrow and that is our primary concern.
