Slot: 'Fans have every right to feel let down'

Arne Slot addresses TNT Sports. "We began strongly - scored early, nearly made it 2-0 from a set piece - but then lost control against their midfielders. Like last match, we gave away a poor set-piece goal, which hurts in big fixtures. Second half showed better pressing intensity - we struck the post and bar - but it wasn't quite enough to secure the win."

On substituting Rio Ngumoha, a move that drew ire ... "Many fans disagreed, and I get that. But it was necessary - he reported muscle issues and uncertainty about continuing. He's popular, so the reaction was predictable. As manager, I must decide based on full knowledge, even if not everyone agrees. Today, they clearly didn't."

Regarding the final whistle boos. "It stems from not winning. Over five games, three wins, a loss last week, draw today - not our goal. We aim to win every one, but set-piece concessions cost us again. We came close via Virgil. Fans expect victories at Liverpool; disappointment is understandable when we fall short."

Gravenberch: 'The boos are undeserved'

Ryan Gravenberch to TNT on the fan reaction. "We need their support throughout. Sure, no win, but this isn't fair. Fans must back us for 90 minutes - second half, their energy helped our press. Hope it improves next time."

McFarlane: 'Victory was within our grasp'

Calum McFarlane to TNT Sports: "We poured everything into this. Now a rest day before prepping for top opposition in the FA Cup final. We could have taken it - I believe we earned the win. Bounced back from Forest, showed our character. Need consistency. The final will be tough, but at peak, we rival Europe's best."

The draw secures Liverpool's hold on fourth place. Marginally, though - Aston Villa could overtake with a win at Burnley tomorrow, setting up a fiery clash next Friday, despite their Europa League final focus. Chelsea sit ninth, with Everton, Fulham, and Sunderland to play this weekend. McFarlane's side eyes the FA Cup final next Saturday.

Reader reactions pour in post-match. "Chiesa finally appears. Credit to Anfield for applauding wisely, unlike the manager. Amid attacking woes, Slot never starts Chiesa - late subs at best, Gakpo as striker again. Dutch bias? Oversight? Surely LFC's football chiefs - head of football, sporting director, etc. - should intervene." - Darryl Accone

TNT quizzes Wesley Fofana on Chelsea's goal. "Maybe! Not sure if I got a touch - could be Enzo. Great team goal, vital. Happy with it. Didn't feel contact, but video shows I did, so credit me! We practiced that routine."

Man of the match Marc Cucurella adds: "Top effort today. Not our finest run, but we battled as one. Boosts confidence ahead of the huge FA Cup final next week."

Liverpool edged the second half, truth be told. Woodwork hit twice, goal ruled out. Chelsea had a disallowed strike too, and their first-half dominance was sharpest. Overall, neither dazzled. As hosts and champions, Liverpool drew loud jeers - first for Ngumoha's exit, then the stale display and draw. Pressure mounting on Slot?
