The grey clouds have been gathering above Anfield ever since the opening day of the Premier League season.
As the poor performances and disheartening results continue to come, the remaining glimpse of blue sky is fading quickly.
Following Monday night’s 2-1 defeat at Old Trafford, questions have been asked about whether the negative feeling has infiltrated the Liverpool dressing room.
A first defeat of the season to arguably the club’s biggest rivals caused anger and frustration amongst Liverpool fans.
What is going on with the Liverpool squad’s body language?
Despite the unrest around the fanbase growing, gauging the feelings of the Liverpool squad was unusually difficult during and after the game.
Being out-fought and out-played by Manchester United highlighted glaring issues and almost an identity crisis within the team.
During Jurgen Klopp’s tenure at the club, his side has always had passion and fight in bucket loads.
Being technically worse than opposing teams had been outweighed by the work rate and effort put in by his side.
United were the epitome of a typical Jurgen Klopp team on Monday whereas his own players appeared unbothered and uninterested.
Beaten to every ball and losing 50-50 challenges constantly, Liverpool deserved everything they got on the night; which was nothing.
Key players within the starting eleven showed unusual body language throughout the game whether at 0-0 or 2-0 down.
Particularly Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold, with the former being put in his place by vice-captain James Milner.
Furthermore, the English full-back was slow and sloppy throughout the night as he allowed constant runners in behind without appearing to put much effort into tracking back.
The 23-year-old seemed to treat this match as a training drill with the result not meaning much in the grand scheme of things.
Fans will have been tearing their hair out at the sight of such lacklustre defending.
James Milner continues to lead by example
Not only Alexander-Arnold but the normally aggressive Andy Robertson could not have seemed less interested in the game if he tried.
One player that showed some form of passion and deserves at least some credit is the aforementioned James Milner.
Milner struggled when on the ball during the match but his work rate did not drop at all.
The 36-year-old covered every blade of grass in an attempt to help his side and was not afraid to show his discontent at his teammates not following his lead.
The Reds went 1-0 down to a well-taken goal in the first half, however, Milner was instantly on the case of Van Dijk.
The defender seemed to stand frozen in place as he watched Jason Sancho slot the ball into the bottom corner.
Cameras spotted Milner laying into the big defender as he felt more could have been done to try and block the shot.
Even if the goal had still happened, fans would have appreciated a bit more effort from the usually reliable centre-back.
Worryingly, even during his dressing down on the pitch, Van Dijk wore a blank expression with slumped shoulders.
Hopefully, there is a reaction in the weeks to come.
What Jurgen Klopp must do restore harmony
Responsibility now falls to the boss to sort out the mess that he witnessed on Monday night.
The German looked baffled at some of the performances he saw unfolding before him.
As expected, he was quick to defend his team during his post-match press conference but will no doubt be having words behind the scenes.
He is now tasked with ensuring each and every one of his players are singing from the same hymn sheet in the next game against Bournemouth.
A fast start and a hard-working performance is required to clear some of the clouds around the club at the moment and hopefully work towards glorious sunshine in the months to come.
