Liverpool defender Trent Alexander-Arnold has admitted that 'something is not going right' after Saturday's loss to Leeds and says the Reds have to get back on track at Tottenham next weekend.

Jurgen Klopp's side were beaten 2-1 by Leeds at Anfield on Saturday evening and have now dropped 19 points in the Premier League this season.

That leaves Liverpool 13 points adrift of leaders Manchester City already, with any hopes of competing for the title already looking slim.

"I'd say we all believe in ourselves, we believe in the way we play, we believe in the squad and what we can achieve," Alexander-Arnold told Liverpool's official site.

"But I think when you do get setbacks, it can potentially make you second-guess yourself and question things. Clearly, as a team, something's not going right, it's not going as well as we want it to go.

"That's something for everyone to think about, that's something for everyone to address and make sure we put it right, especially next week against Spurs, top-four rivals. We kind of need to go there and get some points if we've got any chance of reaching our aims and aspirations for the season."

Liverpool are at home to Napoli in the Champions League on Tuesday, having already qualified for the last 16, before the trip to Tottenham in the Premier League on Sunday.

The Reds have claimed just two points out of a possible 15 away from home in the Premier League this season.
