Former Arsenal defender Martin Keown has shared his perspective on the future of Liverpool manager Arne Slot at Anfield, a view that was echoed by former Liverpool midfielder Jamie Redknapp following Saturday’s Premier League fixtures.
The Reds suffered a 3-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest at Anfield, marking their sixth loss in seven league games this season. Slot’s team now trails league leaders Arsenal by eight points, ahead of the North London Derby between the Gunners and Tottenham on Saturday.
Despite Liverpool’s alarming run of form, both Keown and Redknapp believe that Slot is unlikely to be dismissed. The Dutch coach, who secured the Premier League title in his first season at Anfield, is currently facing intense scrutiny as his tactics have struggled to deliver results and several high-profile summer signings have underperformed.
“The wheels are coming off now for Arne Slot,” Keown remarked on Final Score.
Liverpool fans and pundits will be closely watching how Slot navigates this challenging period, with pressure mounting to stabilize results and return the club to its traditional competitive standards.
