Liverpool legend Phil Thompson has big fears for his old club.
The Reds slumped to their sixth defeat of the campaign as they lost 3-1 at Crystal Palace on Sunday, letting an early lead slip to allow the Eagles to end a five-match winless run.
Thommo said: "The only thing going in Liverpool's favour is that the so called 'big teams' have been average and you look at what Southampton are doing and they show there's still a possibility.
"However, the odds don't lie and it's hard to see where the next win is going to come from. It's going to be extremely difficult with a lack of points, form and confidence.
"As I said on Soccer Saturday, the problems lie deeper than just Daniel Sturridge and even when he comes back it's going to be difficult with his fitness issues."
