Liverpool FC won their 19th EPL title in 2020. However, for the next four years Manchester City maintained their domination in the English Premier League as they won 4 Premier League titles back to back. However, a resurgent Liverpool under Arne Slot did the impossible as they ended Manchester City's winning reign and won their 20th Premiership Title in 2025. 

There was joy all round Anfield. Moreover, the Men in Red looked solid and strong. As a result, there was a belief among the fans that they could defend their title. Interestingly, the defending champions started off their campaign pretty well, as they won the first five games, including their game against Arsenal in Anfield. Unfortunately, post their win against Everton, everything has been down the slope. 

Since then they have lost 4 Premier League games in a row [including defeats against Chelsea and United] and are now reeling at 6th position. It appears that the title defence might be over even before Christmas. It's high time for the Scousers to regroup and act before it's too late. After all, the defending champions are crumbling. Their Premier League hopes are on a knife-edge now.
