Liverpool fans are not happy after noticing one decision made by manager Arne Slot during the 1-0 loss to Nottingham Forest.

Slot started his time with the Reds off perfectly, heading into the international break with three consecutive wins, including a dominant performance over long-term rivals Manchester United.

However, his perfect run in the Premier League came to a sudden halt on Saturday after Liverpool suffered a shock 1-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest at Anfield.

And now, fans have taken to social media to point out one frustrating decision made by Slot that he has done in every match so far.

Posting on X, one fan pointed out: "Slot bringing on Bradley and Tsimikas every single game is weird, I’ll be real."

Replying to another fan who thought it was fine for Slot to have favourites, they continued: "It’s not about him liking them, it’s about changing the fullbacks every single game."

Another agreed, questioning the decision to leave new signing Federico Chiesa from the matchday squad.

They added: "Exactly. Why is there 4 defenders on the bench but not chiesa? It’s madness"

Conor Bradley replaced Alexis Mac Allister shortly after the one hour mark, pushing Trent Alexander-Arnold into a two-man pivot midfield alongside Ryan Gravenberch.

Shortly after, Forest winger Callum Hudson-Odoi scored what would be the winning goal of the match and the first goal conceded by the Merseyside club this season.

Slot reacted to going behind in the fixture by replacing left back Andy Robertson with Greek defender Kostas Tsimikas in the 75th minute.

Both Bradley and Tsimikas featured in all three of Liverpool's previous matches this season, often coming on as substitutes sometime after the first hour of play,

But, while they were able to hold onto the lead in those games, they struggled to create an opportunity to get Liverpool back into the match against Nottingham Forest.

The victory for Forest marks the first time they have defeated the Reds since 1969.

It extends their unbeaten run this season so far to two wins and two draws, putting Forest comfortably in the top half of the table at this stage of the season.
