Liverpool manager Arne Slot has opened up following yet another disappointing performance, as the Reds’ poor run of form continues to deepen. Liverpool fell to a 3-0 home defeat against Crystal Palace in the Carabao Cup a result that leaves them with just one win in their last five matches against the London side.
Softfootball earlier reported that Slot was frustrated after Liverpool’s fourth consecutive league defeat and was determined to see his team bounce back. However, that response didn’t come, as the Reds’ struggles have only intensified, with confidence in the camp appearing to dip further.
According to top journalist Fabrizio Romano via his official X handle, Slot explained his reasoning behind the starting lineup selection, insisting he still believes it was the right call despite the poor result. Romano posted;
Arne Slot on starting XI: It felt like me the right decision. I have not changed that opinion. It’s the same selection I did last season in rounds like this. There are many reasons we lost 5 out of 6, or 6 out of 7. None of them are good enough to accept losing so many.
Fabrizio Romano via his X handle also shared that the Dutchman went on to underline the constant expectations that come with managing a club of Liverpool’s stature, noting that every game carries pressure especially in a period like this, he posted;
The defeat has left fans questioning the team’s mentality and tactical approach, but Slot remains adamant that Liverpool will find their rhythm again.The Reds will be desperate to turn things around quickly as they prepare for a crucial run of fixtures in both the Premier League and Europe.
For now, Slot’s focus will be on rebuilding confidence within his squad and finding a way to restore Liverpool’s winning identity something that has long defined the club but has recently gone missing amid their troubling run of form.
