🔗 Share this article Slot Maintains He Is Secure and Retains The Club's Support Following PSV Eindhoven Loss Arne Slot acknowledged that it's natural for doubts to be raised about his position after another convincing defeat against the Dutch champions. The Reds suffered their ninth loss in twelve matches, representing the club's poorest run since being relegated in 1953-54. They were dominated by the Eredivisie title holders on a tough night at their home ground. “I'm confident, I'm fine, I have got significant backing from above,” Slot remarked. “It's important to change things and get a victory naturally but if you are coaching a team and not doing well then it is normal that people question you.” He noted, “I'm comfortable with my situation. This isn't the initial instance I've found myself in a challenging situation but it's necessary that we turned it around.” Conversations with Club Management Upon being questioned to provide details on his conversations with the Liverpool hierarchy, the head coach said: “There's regular dialogue. They are helpful for the squad and to me and we discuss these matters but they don’t call me constantly each day to say they trust me.” He added, “During our regular exchanges I feel the belief. However I haven’t spoken to them since this match yet so let’s see.” Recurring Failings and Squad Response The manager highlighted recurring weaknesses from his squad in their Champions League loss, specifically wasted chances and leaking goals. Meanwhile, player Jones was more direct in his evaluation of the team's situation. “I haven't got the solutions. Frankly, I do not. I'm telling that to everyone,” Jones said. “It’s just unacceptable. I don't need to wait to think about it. I'm beyond feeling anger inside. I’m at the point currently where I just don’t have the phrases.” He added, “It's tough because I’m playing for the club I love. I'm a supporter, and I've watched Liverpool since I was young.” “In recent memory, I haven’t experienced a Reds side enduring a spell like this with outcomes this poor.” He concluded, “But we continue to wear the crest on our shirts. And until it is taken away, we'll continue to compete.” “We’re going to try to help the side back to the top, demonstrate to all again the values of this club and why people call it the greatest side in the world.” “At this moment, we’re in the shit and we have to turn it around.”
