Liverpool FC Premier League Champions 25/26 - Talk /Gossip/Rumours

That was disgraceful. Worst performance of the season, and that's saying something considering the season we are having. Half the players looked like they didn't even want to be out there, like playing for Liverpool on a saturday is a huge inconvenience for them. That attitude I cannot forgive. I say just get rid of him now, let's not wait to be taken apart by PSG before we act.

Thanks for the memories Arne.

I just don't see Slot getting the 15 points plus we'll need for top 5 from those games.

Players deserve pelters.

But the minute adversity came, Slot also chucked on Curtis Jones for Ekitike. Any initiative we had, evaporated.

He's a coward.

He'll hide behind injuries and tiredness. But he doesn't use his squad. Ever. He doesn't trust anyone other than about 14 players. And so when adversity comes, there are no options - just the same shít that doesn't work.

So yes, this is also massively on him.

there is no scenario where Slot gets sacked this late in the season.

We were like a tired beaten boxer backed into a corner getting battered by a stronger better boxer in that second half. Waiting for the towel to be thrown in.

The one fundamental thing he did was play Grav as a 6 holding the midfield, and it worked. He's since scrapped that, bringing a rotation in where Alexis is often at 6 and pushed Grav forward .

He's since alienated and ran both Elliot and Quansah from the club .

Hang on, Klopp got the same points without the City collapse.

I'm all for giving Slot some credit but Klopp never had the benefit of a City collapse, even the season we won it required us to win 18 of the first 19.

And if we were excellent in the league last season then we also were in 23/24.

But City also collapsed that season

10 losses now, already more than any season since 15/16 and there's 7 games to go.

Just let him go now, take the interim/new manager bounce and hope it's enough for 5th. No real damage done then atleast

The scenario is do the club want CL football next season 62-65 points estimated. From 7 games thats 13 to 16 4 wins and a draw - we got 1.5 pts per game in the last 10 of handyish games. It's just down to Chelsea being worst than that really as Slot is not getting a different tune from the same group he's flogged to death.

Ekitike and Wirtz have played 41 and 40 games each. Not exactly good workload management considering they are young and adjusting to the physical demands of the PL.

Changing the high press has come at a cost turnovers have dropped significantly and opposition teams play a higher than average numbers of long balls against liverpool than they normally do.

Why it matters for Salah

Last season, Salah scored nearly 35% of his goals immediately after Liverpool won the ball high up the pitch. With the team now sitting deeper, he has to carry the ball 40–50 yards to goal rather than 10–20 yards.

​The 7x Losing Rule: Recent 2026 data shows Liverpool are 7 times more likely to lose when Salah doesn't register a goal or assist. Because Slot’s "controlled" system has reduced the number of transitions where Salah thrives, the team's overall win rate has plummeted to 44% when hes blank.

This was the question whst happens when Salahs goal run turns into a trickle

Who is comparing Klopp unfavourably?

Who is comparing klopp unfavourably, I'm just stressing that we were excellent last season under Slot and got over the line, that's a fact. We fell apart in 23/24, didn't get over the line, also a fact. Being excellent until march means nothing.

Slot has proven he isn't the man to push on and rebuild, so we move on.

We had the league won last season with what 4 games to go? So no reason why we couldn't of got to 90 points. We were 22 points ahead of City at one stage but yeah that wasn't a collapse👍
