Liverpool need defensive stability, not constant changes - Danny Murphy

The defensive woes of Liverpool stem from a lack of stability and authority in the back four that makes them susceptible to conceding goals from set pieces.

That's the view of former Liverpool midfielder Danny Murphy, who made 246 appearances for the club over seven seasons.

The Reds fell to a 2-0 defeat in the Carabao Cup at Leicester City on Tuesday night to extend their winless run to four games in all competitions.

"You can't build up relationships with players alongside you when you change the players all the time," Murphy told The Straits Times in Singapore where he was promoting a masters' football tournament.
