The problems off the pitch are now transcending on the pitch.
A manager change is NOT out the question, however there will be no knee jerk reaction.
I said to not be concerned but my stance on that has altered.
Personally, I don't think Slot gets past this season as Liverpool head coach

What are the problems off the pitch?
19 Oct 2025 19:44:49
Hi Carra thanks for your info, are we looking at naglesman as a potential replacement?
19 Oct 2025 19:48:27
Depressing but believable
Last year Slots questionable decisions worked out in the long run. This year, it looks the opposite. He looks miles out of his depth.
The team formation/ strategy isn't working at all.
Difficult as I know we as a club don't take reactionary measures, but right now I have little faith Slot will even accept/ own the issues. His post game interview was nonsense.
Who is even available to replace. I would expect a long season till summer.
19 Oct 2025 19:48:53
Carra, what are the problems off the pitch? How have things escalated to this stage?
19 Oct 2025 19:49:44
The Van Bronkhurst gamble has become a huge mistake.
We either change the manager and his backroom staff.
Or
They change the formation and way we play to suit the players. I see no inbetween. This boring Failing system is horrible to watch and we’re in huge decline because of it.
Something needs to change immediately, 4 losses in a row and can’t get up for a home game against United? Worrying is an understatement.
19 Oct 2025 19:52:29
Hello carra thanks for your info as always. Can u elaborate as regards what the problems off the field are?
19 Oct 2025 19:58:02
Sorry Carra, just to follow up, what off the pitch problems do you refer to? Wasn’t aware there were any.
Although Slot appears clueless right now. No balance or control in team, shape all over the place and going for the win at the cost of team discipline far too early. Last 3 losses in the prem could easily have been 3 draws but just throwing the kitchen sink and hoping for the best.
Massive mistake getting rid of Lucho.
19 Oct 2025 19:58:37
What makes you say that Carra?
What’s happened? We just won the league!
19 Oct 2025 20:07:12
That’s a big statement Carra, LFC don’t usually do knee jerk reactions, however not often have we just won league, shelled out £400m and look worse and so poor, not since Hodgsons days and these players are far superior to that team and that they are looking ATM.
Let’s be honest we’ve not looked great since Christmas and the players we have brought it ARE quality and it’s the managers job to knit it together and make tough decisions- starting with dropping Salah! Makes you wonder how influential Heitinga was to our success last year.
Areola would be my choice if a change were to happen he’s obviously worked wonders at Bournemouth having been brought in by Hughes.
19 Oct 2025 20:07:55
What utter nonsense. Total garbage. Liverpool still win the PL and or the CL this year. We had more than enough chances to win 2 games today.
19 Oct 2025 20:13:12
Jamie Car Rager,
You can only earn PL points on the pitch not off it?
The current losing results can only be resolved on the field of play.
"OFF THE PITCH FC" have never won a game of football and never will!
19 Oct 2025 20:16:05
Not a chance Mark…. We look totally clueless.
19 Oct 2025 20:25:23
Hopefully the off the pitch problems aren’t related to the leadership structure. Arne can’t really complain about the players brought in, or did he want to continue with pragmatic football and was given very attacking players which he and his staff don’t know how to use.
Coaching wise who would we go for if there were doubts about Arne . Iraola and Glasner are flavour of the month domestically at the moment but it would be a big risk with either. If there’s a doubt around Arnes future of the two Iraola would probably suit us best.
While it’s been a really disappointing month it feels too soon to be doubting Arne . If it’s still a mess at the end of November it might get interesting even though there’s no obvious replacement.
19 Oct 2025 20:28:01
Zidane. Someone who’ll bring ‘vibes’ and let the saban their natural game. We bough players who love to be on the front foot and press, yet we’re toying with the ball at the back.
Klopp would have killed for these signings.
19 Oct 2025 20:32:46
It’s October get a bloody grip.
19 Oct 2025 20:39:11
Sailor - Zidane Successful at Madrid what possible reason could we say he’d be a success anywhere else?
19 Oct 2025 20:42:45
Markp what have you seen this season to make you think we are title contenders.
We're on a 4 game loss streak.
19 Oct 2025 20:44:17
Slot is having a nightmare but give home some time. It’s not his fault that the players can’t kick or head a ball straight. That miss from Gakpo was unbelievable.
19 Oct 2025 20:52:53
What problems off the pitch are you talking about Carra? just curious.
19 Oct 2025 21:17:02
We can score one more, but that's hardly the only problem. If you think its just about the ball in the net and not our midfield, fullbacks, exposed CB's, and wasteful forwards then.
We might have drawn today in a better world, but how does that bemoan the performances.
19 Oct 2025 21:39:55
Oooof was not expecting to read that, Carra.
To look like a team of strangers who didn’t match United’s desire is extremely alarming.
19 Oct 2025 21:45:39
I still feel our problems will be there whoever is the head coach.
Salah has got his contract and seems to have dropped his effort and concentration. He looks disinterested - which is very unlike him. I’d ship him in Jan.
Losing Becker is a huge blow to confidence.
Obviously Van Dijk is ageing. It’ll happen sooner or later. Konate is off to Madrid and mentally is already there.
Kerkez is still settling in, he’s a young man as is Bradley. Frimpong is new, settling in.
MacA missed a lot of pre-season.
Szobo has been our best player.
Gakpo has been his usual inconsistent self.
Ekitike has been brilliant
Isak looks lost, I guess going on strike for weeks really does affect your fitness and form?
Wirtz is a head scratcher. He’s a class player but he’s not on the same page as a lot of his teammates.
19 Oct 2025 21:52:17
Markp mate the set up, the tactics the way they train is all on Slot and his coaches. Gakpo missing a header is not the issue. For me he has 2 games to start to put this right. A loss in The CL and not winning next week should be the end of it. The team is in a free fall Slot seems incapable or at least not willing to do anything different to stop it. They need to run harder, close down quicker and have pace and energy in the team, not this horrendous slow sideways passing that goes no where . This is on Slot. He fixes it by changing or he needs to go. We are out of the title race by next Saturday otherwise.
19 Oct 2025 22:20:20
The club may not be knee jerk but judging by this thread most of the fans are! Jeez.
19 Oct 2025 22:31:30
Kim your what’s wrong with the world total over reaction. A major player had his live taken. Pre season was all over the place. The players are playing catch up and are not that far off. We could/ should have scored 4 or 5 today. We are a couple of weeks away from clicking and by December we will be the best team in Europe. Get a grip.
19 Oct 2025 22:34:49
The atmosphere was v. poor today and against Utd of all teams.
19 Oct 2025 23:25:32
We've been poor since the Spurs game last season - Slot will surely be given the season, unless this identity crisis continues on for too long.
20 Oct 2025 04:02:59
Thats more frustration than information speaking mate.
Things are bad but we are expecting to improve, that said it is also true this season won't be a free pass for slot.
20 Oct 2025 07:25:11
Slot's mistake is thinking he had the league sussed.
The first half of last season was based on keeping it tight, and relying on the forwards to score and win the game. Lots of tight wins . he should have known there are no easy games in the PL . every team has high fitness and athleticism and works on closing you down and defending.
The 2nd half of the season we pulled through in tight games . when sides formed lower defensive blocks we struggled - hence buying creative players. The problem is the pendulum has gone too far in the other direction. It's foolish to think you can buy a load of players and just tear teams apart. Klopp style basketball without peak-time Mo Bobby and Sadio.
Defensive stability is lost, midfield getting over-ran, huge gaps from full-backs being too high at times. Players careless with the ball.
Chiesa, Wirtz, Ekitike need to get pitch time.
20 Oct 2025 16:24:01
Thanks for the info Carra - and for what it’s worth, i think you’ll be proven right if the current, failing tactics are persisted with.
I noticed a shift in tone from the local journalists after yesterday’s game. That’s not usually a good sign.
