Liverpool manager Arne Slot is under a lot of pressure after his team’s recent disappointing performances, and he could be shown the door soon.
According to a report from TEAMtalk, Arne Slot is under intense scrutiny, and Liverpool would have no qualms about letting him leave.
Initially, it was expected that Liverpool would back the manager and give him the time to turn things around. However, there has been no sign of progress in recent months, and it would be ideal for the club to part ways with the Dutch manager.
Liverpool won the Premier League title last season, and Slot was heavily backed in the transfer market. The Dutchman spent half a billion on new signings, but he has failed to deliver this season.
Most of his signings have underperformed, and he has failed to get the best out of the existing players as well. It is clear that his tactics are not working, and the players are lacking in serious motivation under him as well.
Liverpool under Arne Slot in the Premier League 2024/25 vs 2025/26

- Big chances per game: 2.6 vs 3.9
- Possession: 60.1 vs 57.9
- Goals conceded per game: 1.4 vs 1.1
- Duels won per game percentage: 51.8 vs 49.2
- Pass accuracy: 85.8 vs 86.3

- Interceptions per game: 6.8 vs 7.9
Liverpool are in decline
Liverpool crashed out of the FA Cup in the quarter-finals against Manchester City recently, and they have not won the EFL Cup either. There is no chance of fighting for the Premier League title this season, and they are in serious danger of missing out on UEFA Champions League qualification for the upcoming campaign.
While the Reds have made it to the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League, they are up against the defending champions PSG, and the Ligue 1 outfit could inflict further misery on them if they continue to drop mediocre performances.
Slot has clearly lost the dressing room and the fans. It would be ideal for Liverpool to make a change now and allow a new manager to turn things around. They have been heavily linked with Xabi Alonso, who is currently unemployed after his dismissal from Real Madrid. The Spaniard is a fan favourite at Liverpool from his playing days, and he could lift the club’s spirits.
