By Olukayode Olumuyiwa. Liverpool’s incredible downturn continued with a calamitous 4-1 home defeat against PSV Eindhoven in the UEFA Champions League. This loss means Liverpool have now lost three games in a row while conceding three or more goals in each, escalating the sense of crisis at Anfield. The pressure on Liverpool boss Arne Slot is increasing in the dugout, and his position now comes under even greater scrutiny following this result. The match began badly for the home side when Virgil van Dijk’s “moment of madness” led him to handle an early PSV corner inside the area. Ivan Perišić…
