Well looking and listening to slots press conference and the plans for next season he's going no were fast so it's such a shame we have to go through this dire football again next season guys. ?
14 May 2026 11:27:00
It'll be getting very toxic then.
14 May 2026 11:28:28
Jesus, if you're out there, please can we get one of Xabi, Iraola or Enrique.

Anfield needs to find its voice then, to leave the owners with the correct impression of what the fans think of Slot and the performances this season.
If by some miracle Slot is still manager next season, there needs to be a fundamental shift in the way we play, train, etc., and this needs to be on display from minute one of the first league game.

There's a point of no return with managers where everyone intuitively knows how it's going to end even if they refuse to admit it, like with Rodgers, Ten Hag, Solskjaer. Slot passed that point a long time ago. They're just delaying the inevitable at this point.

Even if he is staying (I still think he's off btw), that would make a mockery of John Henry's comment about settling for mediocracy. Keeping Slot, after this train wreck of a season, getting dumped out of all competitions by "inferior" opposition, and leaving it until the 11th hour to secure Champions League football (and there's still a chance we may stuff that up as well), would be seen as a monumental failure.
The guy is in Holland more than the training field, the players are clearly not playing for him, and the fans are turning. I don't think Henry is that stupid to reward that, with another season and even more financial outlay.

TIB - Great photo btw.
I hope they sack him, but why have they come out so strongly that he's staying? I know they can't say he's leaving, but even saying they will perform a review at the end of the season.
I think he needs to go, even with all these "circumstances", if we were terrible at the start and started to play better, even if the results didn't improve, I think a lot of us would understand.
But we've just got worse as the season has gone on. Or maybe they think we're better than pre Christmas because that was a disaster.
I hope they sack him, but I think it's wishful thinking.

The thing is, Arken, have they come out and said that he is staying? I would say they haven't said anything of the sort. There is a narrative in the media that he's staying, but that's not come directly from the owners. I think FSG are quite shrewd, and keep their cards close to their chest. Even reading what Slot has said is very vague and open to interpretation.
Personally, I think they (FSG) know exactly what they plan to do, and are awaiting various things to fall into place before actually coming out with it.
Every other bit of noise is just speculation.
Logically speaking, and taking all things into account, I do not see a long term future for Slot at the club. This season is a failure, and if Slot stays, then Henry's words are meaningless.

PSG and Man City are hardly inferior opposition in fairness. No shame going out of cups to either of them sides.
14 May 2026 13:01:23
There is a reason the word inferior was in quotes Florian. Here's one for you then.Plymouth.
Surely even a staunch Slot fanboy such as yourself can see the performances have simply not been good enough.
14 May 2026 13:28:10
Plymouth was last season, Bulk. Hasn't counted on these boards since last September.
14 May 2026 14:28:50
It counts to me, Florian. The performances have been utter pants since before then.

Not true. We'd won 29 outa 37 games up to that point in all comps. Losing only 3. Re-writing history again.
