There’s a tidal manner of criticism washing over the Dutch coach, with many calling for Slot to be relieved of his function as Liverpool supervisor.

Liverpool misplaced 1-0 to Galatasaray for the second time this season, suggesting little progress has been made for the reason that first defeat in September.

The strain is actually rising, however Slot could also be underneath much less strain from throughout the membership than many would imagine.

Arne Slot feedback counsel his job as supervisor isn’t in peril

Whereas Slot is hardly going to come back out to press hinting that he will likely be fired on the finish of the season, his feedback, and the current Reds Roundtable with sporting director Richard Hughes and Liverpool CEO Billy Hogan, counsel there may be not as a lot strain on his job as some would have you ever imagine.

Chatting with the media forward of Liverpool’s Premier League conflict with Spurs at Anfield, the Dutch coach made some fascinating feedback, referencing the continued assist of Liverpool homeowners FSG (Fenway Sports activities Group).

“This would possibly sound bizarre if I say solely optimistic [things]as a result of this season has not been solely optimistic,” stated Slot.

“The assist I’ve at all times felt – not speaking about social media I don’t comply with that a lot – however the assist I’ve felt from the house crowd, away crowd, individuals contained in the constructing, the possession.

“What we’ve got finished right here collectively to attain the issues we’ve got achieved, is in my head and reminiscence solely very particular.

Ought to Liverpool exchange Slot on the finish of the season?

That’s the query, isn’t it?

The Liverpool fanbase, a minimum of based mostly on social media, believes Slot isn’t the person to steer the membership ahead. Whether or not or not it’s nearly all of followers that imagine this or not, it’s clear that the 47-year-old has finished a poor job this season.

The supervisor has cited a number of causes for the Champions’ decline in 2025-26, however it’s simple that Liverpool are identity-less, rudderless and, frankly, boring to observe.

The Reds that we now watch are a departure from what we grew accustomed to underneath Jurgen Klopp. The German was by no means going to be completely changed, however regardless of profitable the title in his first season, Slot has struggled to make good on the homeowners’ £460m funding into the squad over the summer season.

Champions League qualification could be the solely manner Slot earns himself one other 12 months, however for my part, that’s a very low bar to goal for.
