Barnes: I m not worried about Liverpool s poor performance at all, the team will be fine once they find balance

November 18th: Liverpool has suffered a losing streak in the Premier League this season, and its hope of defending the Premier League has become increasingly slim. A few days ago, Red Army star Barnes accepted an official interview from Liverpool at a pop-up event held by the Liverpool Club. He talked about this Liverpool team that is currently in trouble. Barnes said he is still not worried about Liverpool's prospects and believes the team's talent will eventually be revealed.

Barnes said: "Last year we didn't spend a penny, but we still easily won the league championship. This year, we signed a lot of good young players. They are good players, but you have to give them time to run in. Although we started well, many games were won at the last minute, and our overall performance was not as good as last year."

"I am not worried about this team not performing well at all, because They've got good players and good character. They're young and inexperienced and it's a brand new team. We may be a little sluggish right now, but if you look at the quality they have, once they find the right balance and they get used to each other's style of play, we'll be fine."

■ A common point of discussion in recent weeks has been whether Liverpool made too many changes to a championship-winning team last summer. So, is Slott too eager to change the squad that Klopp has built?

Barnes said: "Of course it is very easy to stick with the original team. It may succeed, maybe not, but you have to move forward. Players will get older and will leave, and when you have the opportunity to sign high-quality players like us, you should do it. The key now is to integrate them into a system and style that suits the team."

■ Although Liverpool is currently 8 points behind the top of the table, Barnes does not believe that the Premier League championship is out of reach; he also disagrees with the statement that "Liverpool is in a transition season."

Barnes said: "When we say this is a transition season... things may suddenly become smoother next month or January. So the so-called 'transition season' refers to us trying to establish a way of playing that suits the players. This means that we can still win the league, or we may finish second or third."

"I Not worried at all, not about whether we can win the title or be second or third, but whether we can continue to be competitive and play in a cohesive way, so I don’t actually know what ‘transition’ means, but if we are going to move on from the way Klopp has been playing for many years, then this season may be that season, yes.”
