Slot “almost confused” by Liverpool’s league collapse

Arne Slot (Liverpool)
November 2025

Arne Slot admitted he is “almost confused” by Liverpool’s disastrous Premier League run, with the defending champions losing six of their last seven league games and sitting in the bottom half despite heavy summer investment and three wins from four in a strong Champions League campaign. Pointing to big-money arrivals such as Isak, Wirtz, Ekitike, Kerkez and Frimpong, Slot insisted the squad has enough quality and noted recent European victories over Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid and Eintracht Frankfurt. However, he conceded that “far too many games” have been lost domestically and that he has yet to “find a winning way” in the league.

Liverpool thrashed by PSV as Ekitike injury deepens crisis

Liverpool
November 2025

Liverpool’s season hit a new low with a 4-1 home defeat to PSV, marking nine losses in their last 12 games and dragging them down to 13th in the Champions League standings. Goals from Ivan Perisic, Guus Til and a Couhaib Driouech brace exposed a fragile, disjointed defence. Slot’s rotated side never settled, and the night worsened when in-form summer signing Hugo Ekitike limped off just after the hour, forcing the underperforming Alexander Isak into another goalless appearance. The Sweden striker’s ongoing drought and the team’s collapsing form will intensify scrutiny on Slot’s selections and ability to halt the slide.

Bayern sporting director Max Eberl is trying to persuade Dayot Upamecano to sign a new contract rather than leave on a free next summer, with Real Madrid, Liverpool and PSG monitoring the 27-year-old defender’s situation ahead of potential negotiations from January. Eberl says Bayern have made a strong offer but insists the decision must be about the “overall package” and not just money, calling Upamecano one of the world’s best centre-backs and describing an extension as an “internal king transfer”, while the player remains non-committal in public.

Liverpool’s season hit a new low with a 3-0 home loss to Forest, their sixth defeat in seven matches, dropping the champions to 11th and handing them their heaviest Anfield league defeat in four years as Murillo, Savona and Gibbs-White exposed soft defending. Slot admitted the result was “a smack in the face” before PSV’s visit, a remark that angered many supporters who feel his tone understates the crisis. With Liverpool already having lost more league games than in the entire title season, pressure and scrutiny on his methods are intensifying.

Stuttgart playmaker Angelo Stiller is attracting serious interest from Real Madrid, Manchester United, Liverpool, Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund after an outstanding season, although sporting director Fabian Wohlgemuth insists there have been no formal offers and says it is too early to speculate. Wohlgemuth acknowledged that Stiller’s performances and potential World Cup prospects naturally draw heavyweight attention, but stressed the midfielder remains under contract and that Stuttgart are simply enjoying his influence for now while accepting that elite clubs will keep him under close watch.

Klopp has spent almost a year as Global Head of Soccer, overseeing Red Bull’s multi club network and long term football strategy, yet Hoeness recalled Bayern’s past interest in hiring him and argued that his personality, energy and instincts still belong on the touchline.

Forest beat Liverpool 3-0 away to climb to 16th, earning back-to-back league wins at Anfield for the first time since the early 1960s and becoming only the fourth Premier League side to win there by three or more goals. Goals from Murillo, Nicolas Savona and Morgan Gibbs-White capped a display built on defensive organisation and relentless work-rate, with Dyche stressing that Forest’s intensive training, blocks, and confidence in goalkeeper Matz Sels underpinned a performance where they accepted little possession but executed chances ruthlessly.

November 2025

Isak has reportedly spent around £30,000 on a highly trained Doberman protection dog to safeguard his family after online death threats linked to Sweden’s disastrous qualifying campaign and the backlash over his forced move from Newcastle to Liverpool. The forward, who went on strike to push through a British-record transfer, is said to view the protection dog as part of settling safely on Merseyside under intense scrutiny, with sources describing the animal as both a powerful guardian and calm family companion.

Slot Under Fire As Liverpool Face Make-Or-Break Trip To Forest

Arne Slot
November 2025

Liverpool’s 3-0 collapse at Manchester City has left Arne Slot under growing scrutiny, with pundits warning that another slip-up against struggling Nottingham Forest could deepen an alarming run of seven defeats in ten games and drag the reigning champions further from the title race. Don Hutchison argues Slot must finally settle on a clear system that fits Liverpool’s biggest names during a softer run of fixtures, insisting this stretch against bottom-half opposition is where a convincing plan, consistent line-ups and sustained results must appear or pressure will quickly escalate.
