Kenny Dalglish has warned his Liverpool flops that some of them may have blown their chances of starting Saturday’s FA Cup final against Chelsea.
The Reds, who have only won five league games at Anfield this season, fielded a much-changed line-up in Tuesday night’s clash 1-0 defeat to Fulham, and Dalglish has slammed the approach of his stars.
‘Their attitude was not right and if you get a bad attitude you are going to get a bad performance and that is what we got,' he said.
'I think that is an accurate appraisal.
'I am culpable as well as I changed a lot of players to try to give everyone an opportunity to get in the frame for Saturday.
'I suppose by doing that it was a contributory factor to what happened but you can only be fair. I tried to be fair and give everyone an opportunity - maybe I was wrong.
'There were one or two positives but there were too many negatives. We cannot play at that tempo, we have to play at a quicker tempo than that. We deserved nothing.'
Jordan Henderson, Andy Carroll, Stewart Downing, Dirk Kuyt and Skrtel all played a significant part in the defeat, while Luis Suarez, Steven Gerrard and Pepe Reina were all rested.
