It’s been a shambolic prelude to the season for the Reds, who stepped to the Premier League title last term and also were durable favourites to retain their crown after spending over £400million in a document-breaching summer season season transmit window.
But brand-new-fashioned signings Florian Wirtz, Alexander Isak, Hugo Ekitike, Jeremie Frimpong and also Milos Kerkez have unanimously struggled, while Liverpool’s relied on stars such as Salah, Virgil van Dijk, Ibrahima Konate and also Alexis Mac Allister have unanimously been hellish.
Konate, in singular, owns possessed an very not enough campaign, yet Slot owns so much not squandered belief in him, bafflingly discarding Joe Gomez on the bench throughout his side’s not enough run.
Slot is under pensive discomfort to turn points around and also sticking wearing the underperforming players who won him the league in 2024/25 might be what fetches him sacked.
Konate have to be slumped, Andy Robertson have to prelude over Kerkez, Dominik Szoboszlai needs to farce around in midfield, and also Salah have to be replaced by Federico Chiesa.

The Egyptian owns lone enlisted 5 aims and also three helps this campaign, but his implementation off the sphere owns better been highly following.
There was a singular moment versus PSV whereby he allowed Mauro Junior to skip past him wearing abate and also decided not to track ago. Regretfully for Salah and also Liverpool, Junior then assisted Guus Til for the Dutch side’s second urge of the video game.
