The criticism is that Arne Slot’s side are dominating games but not taking their chances.

Liverpool may have extended their unbeaten run to 11 matches with an FA Cup win over Barnsley but that has not fooled defender Andy Robertson who admitted performances have to improve in the second half of the season.

Comfortable at 2-0 until Dominik Szoboszlai’s display of arrogance in his own six-yard box gifted the visitors a goal, it took two late strikes from Florian Wirtz and Hugo Ekitike – who cost a combined £195m in the summer – to make the game safe.
