Roy Keane has labelled Liverpool \u2018bad champions\u2019 amid their catastrophic Premier League title defence.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Reds won a record-equalling 20th league title last term in their first season under Arne Slot<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Criticism of Liverpool\u2019s catastrophic Premier League title defence is acceptable, says Keane[\/caption]<\/p>\n

However, they find themselves 17 points adrift of current leaders Arsenal<\/a> just nine months on from lifting the trophy.<\/p>\n

Liverpool<\/a> have already suffered seven league defeats this season ahead of their clash with Manchester City<\/a> on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, they are 18 points worse off than they were after 24 matches during their title-winning campaign.<\/p>\n

At this point last term, Slot\u2019s side had been beaten just once in the league, compared to seven already this season.<\/p>\n
