JURGEN KLOPP saw his hopes of a historic quadruple blown to pieces in the space of six days in 2022.

And now Liverpool’s treble bid looks to have fallen apart in less than four days.

Liverpool spurned a host of chances in front of goal

Like the previous week against Manchester United, Liverpool paid the price for not taking their chances.

Equally, Palace’s back five defended brilliantly and both Adam Wharton and Will Hughes were outstanding in central midfield.

Liverpool’s finishing was absolutely shocking.

Darwin Nunez, Diogo Jota and Curtis Jones all missed sitters in the second half and Jean-Philippe Mateta should also have put Palace 2-0 up.

You knew it was not Liverpool’s today when Nunez somehow failed to score at point-blank range when he blasted a shot straight at Henderson.

.

And with Henderson beaten, Jota looked certain to score but his strike was blocked by Nathaniel Clyne.

Jones blazed wide and Salah should have scored but his effort was blocked by Mitchell.

At the end, you only had to look on the faces of Klopp and the players who know they have shot themselves in the foot.
