11th place in the Premier League table. Still 26 games left of the season, a lot can happen, but already with 6 lost games (last season there was a total of 4), “messages” are seeping out in the English media, that Arne Slot is in danger of being fired. Everyone understands this after going from unbeatable, to 3-0 defeats against Crystal Palace (League Cup), Manchester City and most recently Nottingham Forest. The question is whether the Liverpool management has already lost confidence in reigning champion Slot. A hyperactive transition journalist gives us a status report.
The transfer journalist Romano has his tentacles out to all the big clubs, he has not picked up any “kick-slot” signals.

“This season has been very bad for Liverpool so far. Terrible start. They are 11th in the Premier League table, and they have already lost six games. What happens to Arne Slot? Folks, at the moment I have no confirmation that the Liverpool owners are deciding to make a decision right away. So Liverpool are not thinking about changing managers now,” the transfer journalist says.
“The owners want to see different types of results, and they expect a lot more from Slot and from this team. So Liverpool surely want to see something different from the manager and from the players, because this doesn’t just apply to Slot. The players must also take responsibility. It’s complicated now, but at the same time, Slot can feel the support of the club,” he continues.

“Liverpool are not in talks with any other manager or considering the possibility of sacking the manager. That is the situation as of today,” Romano concludes.
