Liverpool officials reportedly recognise the need for an immediate change in form but are “100% convinced” that Arne Slot is the man to take the club forward.
After exceeding expectations in his debut season by leading Liverpool to the Premier League glory, Slot has been unable to maintain those standards after a summer which saw the Reds produce the most expensive transfer window in history to recruit the likes of Alexander Isak, Florian Wirtz and Hugo Ekitiké.
A series of late goals helped spark an early sequence of wins, but Liverpool have lost five of their last six games, including four successive defeats in the Premier League. That sudden downturn in performance has led to gossip and speculation about Slot’s long-term future.
In the face of Slot’s first real challenge at Liverpool, states Liverpool’s faith in the Dutch boss remains unwavering and there are no plans to even consider making a change in the dugout.
Liverpool still trust Slot to turn things around and are “100% convinced” he is capable of doing so, recognising the changes to the make-up of the squad are likely to have left the Reds lacking fluidity and cohesion.
