Walker, who endured a tough outing, faced backlash for his below-par display. After the match, he addressed the media, speaking candidly to Sky Sports about the team’s struggles.
“It’s tough to stand here and talk about it when I haven’t fully processed it yet,” Walker admitted. “I’ve been here for title wins, so I’ll stand here for defeats too.
“As a defender, the most frustrating thing is conceding goals. I don’t care about scoring – it’s about keeping clean sheets, and we’re not doing that. We need to go back to basics. If we concede four at home, we have to score five.
“It’s not just the backline, it’s all 11 players. Confidence hasn’t been lost entirely; we’ve achieved so much together, but history doesn’t help us now. There’s one team above us doing really well, and we need to fight to catch up.”
Looking ahead, Walker urged his teammates to refocus: “The best way to bounce back is on Tuesday. Confidence comes with wins, and we need to get back to the City everyone knows.”
When asked about next weekend’s crucial Premier League showdown against Liverpool at Anfield, Walker acknowledged the stakes: “It’s the perfect game to turn things around. We need three points to close the gap, but we can’t play like this again, or we’ll be punished. For now, it’s about preparing for the Champions League game and keeping Liverpool within reach.”
