Slot's Liverpool Future in Doubt Amidst Poor Season

Slot's second season at Anfield has been challenging, with Liverpool trailing league leaders Arsenal by 14 points. Despite substantial summer investment in players like Alexander Isak and Florian Wirtz, the team's performance has been a poor defense of their Premier League title.

Adding to the pressure, talisman Mohamed Salah publicly accused his manager of "throwing him under the bus" in late 2025, intensifying rumors of an impending exit. This situation has led to severe criticism and speculation about Slot's long-term position.

Jamie Carragher has delivered a stark assessment, emphasizing Liverpool's inability to cope with key Premier League elements such as set-pieces, counter-attacks, and low-block defenses. He expressed serious concerns about the team's potential to miss out on Champions League qualification.

Carragher noted that failing to secure Champions League football after winning the league the previous season, coupled with significant spending and the highest wage bill, would warrant serious questions about the manager's job security. He fears this could lead to a drastically different outcome for the club's future.
