Liverpool
Alisson sums the two things that have gone wrong with Liverpool perfectly.

Liverpool has not prevailed in any of their previous; Goalie Alisson sees two major issues that need to be resolved after three games in all competitions.
Alisson, the custodian for Liverpool, has identified two crucial problems that the Reds must resolve in order to turn around their recent dismal performance.
When Jurgen Klopp leaves his position as manager at the end of the campaign, Liverpool hopes to offer him a memorable sendoff. They have already won the Carabao Cup. But in recent weeks, their chances of winning two more titles have diminished.
They are down 3-0 going into the second leg of their Europa League quarterfinal matchup with Atalanta. They have surrendered points in their last two Premier League games, drawing 2-2 with Manchester United and losing 1-0 to Crystal Palace.
To get back on track, Alisson thinks Liverpool just needs to “go back to keeping clean sheets and try to score the chances that we have” “[We have] had two bad results, [but] I think we cannot make the mistake to make these bigger than it is,” he emphasised in remarks made before of the second leg against Atalanta.
“As players for the LFC, we obviously cannot accept losing 3-0 at home. It goes without saying that we need to improve our performances, but to be more specific, we need to return to maintaining clean sheets and attempting to score from our clear opportunities in front of the goal.
“I am saying it because I know the quality we have as a team and because I have a lot of faith in my strikers and defenders. Therefore, I believe we can resume winning games if we improve these kinds of things as a squad and do that as a defence and an offensive unit.”
In addition, he acknowledged that Liverpool “need to do a much better job than we did in the first leg” to overcome a 3-0 lead and that Atalanta will be a tough test. Alisson continued, “They will be a difficult nut to crack.”
They are a physically, tactically, and technically very physical side. Taking them on has always been an extremely difficult match. They play 11 on 11, man-marking everywhere on the pitch. If you are playing against a side that does this, you have to make sure you are prepared to work hard and run.
It’s useless to even go out and play if you don’t accomplish it! They performed a fantastic job in the previous game, and it was evident that they had thoroughly studied us as a team in order to prepare the game.
We had a poor performance as well. Although I believe this match may be very different from the first leg, we still need to perform much better.”
