Not sure sleeping on that result and performance has made things any better for me.
I am sure there are many confounding factors behind this, and, to be fair to him, some are not within the head coach's control eg Jota, Guehi and Isak sagas.
We can debate the profiles of the players we brought in, the starting lineups, the physical fitness, and the systems until the cows come home.
What is most concerning right now is that we have lost 11 of our last 25 games. That is really poor for any Liverpool manager, even with credit in the bank.
The second concern is that we do not have the squad to inject physicality into some of the failing positions until January at the earliest.
Finally, the players' body language has me very worried that Slot has lost some of them. I hope this is not true.
I am not Slot out, but he's going to have to drop his own fantasy of playing DeZerbiBall or EnriqueBall and start to get pragmatic about this season before he is handed his P45.
While I rate Iraola, the step up to Liverpool is way too big for him in my opinion at this moment. As Slot has found out, this club is hugely demanding.

Prince Andrew has a better defence than Arne!

Guehi would not be adding too many successful ariel duels. Ground, perhaps but he's no man mountain.

I don't think Guehi makes any difference currently. Yes Konate is playing woefully but the system and style of play is awful, we have regressed and Slot seems reluctant to try anything different.
Play to the players strengths instead of whatever system this is.
