Right, even though Liverpool can recover, but if other competing teams can also maintain their performance and position in the standings, then it will still be difficult for Liverpool to return to the top four. Unless the competing teams or teams in the top four are currently unable to be consistent and continue to get bad results, then Liverpool could easily be back in the top four.
Of course, at this time Liverpool is in sixth position. There are still many matches and the possibility to move up to a better position is huge. Of course, Klop has to think hard, maybe he can also ask to buy new players in January. Maybe they should improve in attack, because Nunez hasn't been playing effectively.
He hasn't been able to show his best performance, in fact I don't think he can replace Mane yet. Even though he is still young, maybe Kloop can give a lot of hours by lending to other clubs.
