Liverpool hero Steve McManaman slammed the players after their shock 1-0 defeat at Bournemouth.
Phillip Billing's first-half goal earned the hosts all three points in a major boost to their survival hopes. The low-point for Liverpool was Mohamed Salah's dreadful penalty miss, with McManaman taking aim at their poor performance.
"I thought they were terrible today. Contrasting fortunes for both teams - everything Liverpool did well last week when they won at Anfield was completely the opposite today," he told BT Sport.
"They were lethargic, they were slow, they moved the ball sideways so many times, there was no urgency to go forwards. Defensively, five clean sheets, they looked as if they couldn't play again today.
"Stepping forwards when they don't need to, always taking chances trying to play offside, and they've arguably got the quickest back four around. They just never looked as if they were going to win.
"I mentioned at half-time it was like the Nottingham Forest game, and it was - Forest were bottom of the league, showed more fight, Liverpool made chances, petered out, never looked as if they were going to win the game and it was exactly the same today.
"Made all kinds of substitutions, it didn't matter. Diogo Jota made the goalie make one save, that was it. Liverpool had five super centre forwards on today and they didn't do anything."
