After Liverpool’s ninth defeat in 12 matches, fans went online to voice their frustration at the team and Arne Slot, with many calling for a change.

While Liverpool are far from out of the Champions League, the Reds’ 4-1 defeat against PSV felt like a knockout blow.

Slot’s side performed better than against Nottingham Forest – not a high bar admittedly – but they once again failed when it mattered most with individual mistakes.

The intensity returned in the first half but psychologically, Liverpool fell apart again after PSV retook the lead.

Liverpool’s run of results and lack of improvement means Slot’s position is becoming increasingly precarious in the eyes of fans.

 

“Hodgson and Brendan Rodgers are the only two managers I’ve wanted to get the sack, apart from those two I’ve stuck by every other manager since I’ve been supporting Liverpool in 2004.

“But I don’t know if I can continue supporting Slot, it’s gotten that bad now. This season is a nightmare” – NuMetalfan1996 in the This is Anfield comments

“Slot is completely clueless now and has lost the plot with this group of players, showing no clear game plan. Gomez and Robertson are left on the bench while he keeps playing Konate and Kerkez” – Lobosco in the This is Anfield comments

“Sad thing is Slot will again acknowledge there isn’t much wrong with the team. He’ll point how at 1-1 we were the much better team. That kind of denial is being used to mask the bleeding in defence. What does he do in training? The same mistakes are being repeated EVERY game!” – Lamda Pi in the This is Anfield comments

Groundhog day. We’ve seen this performance from Liverpool too many times in the last two months.

Just as you think they are gaining some momentum, an individual mistake sends the Reds back to square one.

At the moment, it feels like Liverpool are spiralling. If Slot is to turn this around, it would be the biggest achievement of his young managerial career.
