Mohamed Salah has been slammed for his 'disgraceful' act against PSV Eindhoven as Liverpool slumped to their latest setback.
Liverpool suffered a crushing 4-1 home defeat to PSV in the Champions League on Wednesday.
It's their second defeat of their European campaign, having been beaten by Galatasaray in September.
Arne Slot's team have now lost three games in a row, conceding 10 goals in the process.

Pressure is mounting on Slot, who is under-fire amid a dismal run, which includes nine defeats in 12 games across all competitions.
Fans and critics alike have criticised Liverpool following their defeat to PSV, including Dietmar Hamann, who didn't hold back in his assessment of Salah.
Hamann urged Slot to drop Salah and later called out his 'disgraceful' act for PSV's second goal.

Mauro Junior took it past Salah just inside his own half but the Liverpool star allowed him to carry the ball for 30 yards before the visitors scored when Guus Till found the back of the net.
Speaking on RTE Sport, Hamann exclaimed: "There comes a point when you've to drop players.
"Slot had a decision to make, does he get the sack with Salah or keep his job without him?"
The ex-Liverpool midfielder added: "What Salah did for that second PSV goal... I think Slot had one chance to take him off straight away - what he did there was disgraceful. For a player the calibre of Salah.

"It pains me to say... but the way he let the player go past him without doing anything to help the team."
Salah has contributed just five goals this campaign, having bagged an impressive 34 goals last season.
He looks like a shadow of himself, but Steven Gerrard insists whoever is managing Liverpool would pick the 33-year-old forward.

On TNT Sports, he said: "They're in a real difficult moment. Whoever is managing Liverpool right now would pick Mo Salah.
"Liverpool need all the good players on the pitch to try and find some stability.
"They're conceding too many goals, they're wide open in transition. Look very vulnerable and unstable soon as the ball turns over."
Salah will be hoping to get on the scoresheet when Liverpool resume their faltering Premier League campaign against West Ham United on Sunday.
