🔗 Share this article Arne Slot Asserts He Feels Secure and Retains The Club's Support Following PSV Eindhoven Defeat The Liverpool head coach conceded that it's natural for questions to be raised about his future after another convincing defeat against the Dutch champions. The Reds endured their ninth defeat in 12 games, representing the club's worst streak since being relegated in the 1953-54 season. They were outplayed by the Eredivisie champions on a punishing evening at their home ground. “I'm confident, things are alright, I have got plenty of backing from the top,” Slot stated. “It would be great to change things and secure a win naturally but when you're coaching a team and not doing well then it is normal that questions are asked.” He noted, “I'm comfortable with my role. It is not the initial instance I’ve been in a difficult position but it is about time that we improved our results.” Conversations with Club Management When asked to provide details on his dialogues with the club's leadership, Slot said: “We talk a lot. They assist to the team and to me and we discuss these matters but they don’t call me all the time each day to say they trust me.” He mentioned, “In the normal conversations we have I feel the confidence. But I've not talked to them since this defeat so far so let’s see.” Recurring Issues and Squad Reaction The manager lamented recurring failings from his team in their Champions League loss, namely wasted chances and leaking goals. Meanwhile, player Curtis Jones was blunter in his assessment of the current crisis. “I don’t have the solutions. Truthfully, I don’t. I'm telling that to everyone,” Jones remarked. “It is not good enough. I don’t even need to wait to reflect. I’m past being angry internally. I've reached the stage now where I simply lack the phrases.” He continued, “It's tough because I play for the side I follow. I support them, and I've watched Liverpool for years.” “In a long, long time, I haven’t experienced a Liverpool team experiencing a period like this with performances like these.” Jones finished, “However we continue to wear the crest on our shirts. And as long as that badge is removed, we’re always going to compete.” “We’re going to try to help the side back to where it needs to be, prove once more the values of this club and the reason it's called the greatest side in the world.” “At this moment, things are bad and it must improve.”
