Wanted to share some information from a reliable source close to the club and to be straight with you, I'm posting this because the level of misinformation circulating right now is frustrating to watch.
There are a lot of people on these forums and rumour sites presenting guesswork as insider knowledge, and fans deserve better than that. What I'm sharing below comes from an actual source with direct access to the club.
Current situation: Arne remains manager through the end of the season. That hasn't changed regardless of recent results.
Looking ahead to the summer, the hierarchy has a shortlist in place and Alonso is firmly among the leading candidates. Conversations are already underway at some level, though nothing is confirmed or finalised. From what I've been told, Alonso is genuinely interested in the role and sees real potential in the project but he's still weighing his options. The club is prepared to put a competitive package on the table to get this done.
Nothing is set in stone, but the direction is encouraging. Will update if I hear more.

Don't get this the wrong way, but this is what we have been told repeatedly here, nothing new. Why do you think we are calling for the heads of the gutless Hughes and Edwards? Wages are soaring, tactics and fitness are an eyesore, and we struggle to get much-needed transfers over the line, amongst others. Imagine a world where the Mancs now look upon us to have a laugh. Unacceptable!

To quote Bud Coolidge, "Zed's dead, baby. Zed's dead."

You have said exactly what everyone else has said. So please don't make out like you are better than them, it's not a good look. I will stick to listening to Carra.

Appreciate the info, mate, but very much what Carra, Robbo et al have been saying.

Give Zed a break... A few "ITK"s have said Alonso was already signed, or that Slot needs to win the CL, or... or... As a fan, I appreciate any and all info. :)

It's a rumours site. All information is good information.
It's then up to each poster what they want to and do not want to believe.

I'd just like to point out that this poster is not me!
{Ed025's Note - i think we all know that...the real Zed.. :)

Zed's lost his head. We're playing that badly, he's got 3/4 usernames arguing with himself on his own posts. ?

I am the real Zed and so is my wife.

I have been quiet all season but I have had enough of this s***. Something is not right, I would suspect a few players and the manager have to leave ASAP. This squad is too good to be losing to Spurs and Wolves in recent weeks.
Plus, the recruitment needs a good review as well.
If I was in charge, Salah, Gakpo and Slot need to be looked at moving on. Big summer on the horizon, we would need at least a LW, RW, CM, CB.
On the other outs, Robbo has been a great servant, but he is no Milner, so maybe it is time to part ways with this excellent servant to the club. If a decent bid comes in for Jones, I would consider it, but would like him to stay.
Again, a busy summer with lots of incomings. We need a manager to gel the team. Remember Houllier? He brought in a s*** load of new players into LFC and we ended up with the treble!

I have to disagree. As far as I recall, the most popular opinion coming from ITK's, and shared by the community here over the last couple of months, is that Slot was done at the end of the season,
He was basically just working a notice and was told as much back in December, and that Alonso was essentially nailed on.
What's actually happening in the real world goes completely against all of that. If Slot was done he'd already be gone, and if Alonso was a sure thing he'd already be here. Which clearly hasn't happened. What Zedred is saying is the far more likely scenario.

Which misinformation? What you've said is exactly what's being said here and in the mainstream.
In other news, the sun will rise tomorrow.

Based on how some of these reports are written it feels like we're having to beg Alonso to manage us. I'd hope he'd be absolutely desperate for the job TBH rather than having to be convinced. He should be begging us to start him tomorrow TBH. I'd probably give him a game as well. ?
