I keep getting asked the same thing over and over and over about Slot.
Bookmark this, stick it on your fridge this is my information and that is final.
Slot was told months ago his position at Liverpool was virtually done.
His family arrangements haven't helped, discussions over a termination went amicable and Slot was happy to work on until the summer.
Edwards spoke to Fabregas in Como, nothing came of it.
Luis Enrqique's agent spoke with Liverpool, very difficult as he's invested into the project at PSG. Would love to manage LFC in the future
Talks with Gerrard went positive regarding a interim role, club decided to stick with Slot. Gerrard is there if FSG change their minds.
Hoeness is very well regarded and could be considered. I would think as a second option to Alonso. Would jump at the chance to manage LFC
Xabi Alonso though is and always has been the main candidate, wants the job and will most likely get it this summer.
If Slot wins a Champions league does it change things? This is a two way street and Slot seems happy to go back home. I personally don't see that changing things but you never know.
The conclusion - Slot leaves this summer Xabi Alonso joins LFC.
Ta.

Nice one, Carra. ?
25 Mar 2026 13:15:34
Nice summary, Carra.
Hopefully we do win the Champions League.
25 Mar 2026 13:17:05
Thanks, Carra...
You are the best ? ?
Also... will Slot be here after this International break????
25 Mar 2026 13:17:26
Thanks, Carra.
25 Mar 2026 13:17:37
Top top man, Carra.
Thank you! This season can't end quick enough.
25 Mar 2026 13:28:15
Just hypothetically speaking, what are people's thoughts on Gerrard being an assistant/coach with Alonso?
25 Mar 2026 13:32:03
Cheers, Carra
At least that's put to bed now.
25 Mar 2026 13:32:24
But what about Slot???? Just kidding ? Thanks, as always, Carra. I'd be very happy with Hoeness, looks like the closest thing to a reincarnation of Klopp. Ynwa.
25 Mar 2026 13:33:47
Don't think he'd take it, Willo.
Has been said many times on here that he wants to be no.1.
25 Mar 2026 13:35:09
Thanks, Carra. I would be inclined to agree with your prediction as the most likely scenario.
I don't believe Slot wants to be here next season even if he wasn't sacked.
The bigger question now is what is happening upstairs given the recent announcement that they have paused the multi-club strategy.
25 Mar 2026 13:32:03
Maybe one of the Eds can book mark this a la fatwallet we won't sign isak. he he
Thx carra
Can't wait for the floods of RTFP that will ensue.
25 Mar 2026 13:35:54
Willo, that would be my dream ticket. I think Ed001 has said on occasions in the past that Stevie is a very good coach (as shown by his stint here with the youth teams) but not a good manager. We obviously know all about Stevie's passion, especially for this club.
Not sure if it will happen, Stevie would have to swallow his pride3 a bit having managed teams before, but I think the two of them could boss the team as they used to boss midfield.
Add Milner to that, and that would be a return to the bootroom, imho.
25 Mar 2026 13:38:52
Thanks, Carra. Gutted he is going to be here till the summer.
Wisp, I would like Gerrard as part of Alonso team because no matter what people think about him he has an aura about him that would make bringing players here even more attractive because he is without doubt one of the very best players to have played in the Premier League.
25 Mar 2026 13:46:31
Thanks Carra, it's a very regrettable decision by Edwards. We are lumbered with a manager who couldn't be arsed until the end of the season. That's going to cost us CL football next season, in my opinion.
25 Mar 2026 13:51:10
You've cleared everything up, Carra, apart from the big question that you keep dodging.
Who is the window cleaner from Formby?
25 Mar 2026 13:51:32
Great info. Much appreciated. ??
25 Mar 2026 13:54:19
Gerrard Milner and Alonso .... Nice thinking. My heart likes the idea of a return to the Boot Room...
Wouldn't mind a Lallana to that too.. (think he's taking badges).
Hah, bring back God too ..
Just imagine if he could pass on even half what he knows about scoring goals ..... What a coaching line up .. If we do rubbish .. we can just sub them all on ...
25 Mar 2026 14:05:53
Zedd & Mighty, yeah, adding Milner into the equation would be incredible - we can but dream!
25 Mar 2026 14:07:53
Carra getting this printed on my fridge magnets! lol.
There is no doubting Carra is ITK and one of the most reliable on here. He stated Salah would be off months ago, and here we are.
Thanks, Carra, we appreciate the info, all looking good.
PS, Enrique would be keen to manage LFC in the future - the future looks bright compared to this bleak season!
25 Mar 2026 14:56:54
Honestly, some people just need to chill out. Every week it's the same tripe over and over.
It will be the same when Xabi goes through a rough patch, the same people will be out in force, demanding that Carra or whoever gives them good information that aligns with their own narrative.
25 Mar 2026 15:10:57
Cheers, Carra. What's the latest on Slot? Wink wink.
25 Mar 2026 15:16:02
Willo, I would love Stevie to be on the bench with Alonso, but even if he got offered a role, I think he's too obnoxious to be 2nd fiddle.
25 Mar 2026 15:29:16
I'm a firm believer that a manager (don't agree with Head Coaches) should select their own backroom team, and I'm certain that's what will happen.
You need someone who is going to implement your system and keep the players focussed on the manager's plans.
Someone with their own ideas will only complicate matters. An assistant needs to be humble. Not sure it's Gerrard's gig, if I'm honest.
{Ed025's Note - hes as humble as Joey Barton Ron.. :)
25 Mar 2026 15:53:44
Carra, it's only a bar fridge but it's all yours. Cheers.
25 Mar 2026 17:02:43
Fully agree with you, Ron. Alonso will bring his own crew. And rightly so.
25 Mar 2026 17:17:41
Get Alonso in, get Olisse for rw and Diomande for left, and a bloody good dm with steel. Need a rb probably too. Need to clear out a few too, Mac, Konate, Curtis and Gomez should all be considered. If rumours true, Gakpo wants to go even better.
25 Mar 2026 18:03:20
Thanks for the info, Carra, as always. If you can feedback to the club, tell them they've destroyed our season and negligible for allowing this season to unravel just because they don't like "interims".
25 Mar 2026 18:22:15
Bob Hoeness, I'll have a YNWA please. We'll be on a gold run with him. Sporting Sebs are always winners. Seb Coe, Seb Vettel. Boom. Here we go.
25 Mar 2026 19:37:31
So @Carra, my £10 bet on Hodgson is highly likely a non starter.
