I agree it was not their day today, but they have been showing more chinks in their armor than any of the other title contenders since the start of this year. It was always looking to me like it was just a matter of time before they dropped points. With a run of 4 away fixtures ahead, including a clash that potentially will put them out of the Europa league (and that is not good for morale) and a visit to their next door neighbors, they will need to find their feet and fast.
They should bounce back with an easy win against Fulham

Armour, what armour? It was the chinks in their turrets that were the problem haha. Needing last-minute winners (more this season than ever before), needing goals from outside the box (more this season since Steven Gerrard era), needing comebacks (more this season than ever before).
I know I'm only feeling it because it hurts, but this was really like that 2013 season we broke 100 goals. We kept letting in goals, but we kept shooting in more, and it came from all over the pitch. We had a stellar top half (Suarez, Coutinho, Gerrard, Sterling, Sturridge) but with a bottom half of er... what was it, Mignolet and Skrtel and Sakho and Johnson it couldn't last, unsustainable, and it eventually showed.
