Richard Keys has launched a bizarre rant against Arne Slot, claiming Liverpool is about to make the ‘same mistakes’ Manchester United did with Erik ten Hag.

The former Sky Sports host has also claimed Michael Edwards will have a bigger role at Anfield after Jürgen Klopp’s departure.

Liverpool looks set to name Slot as its new manager soon.



The 67-year-old, now working for beIN SPORTS in Qatar, has compared Slot to his fellow countryman Ten Hag, whose future at Old Trafford remains uncertain after an underwhelming season.

"I believe Liverpool are about to make the same mistakes that Utd did," Keys said in his blog.

Despite Richard Hughes being appointed to take up Edwards’ old role, Keys believes the latter is still set to have a big say at Anfield.

"In amongst the things I’ve read about him so far was a revealing line that ten Slot will not be ‘manager’ at Anfield," added Keys.

Talk to insiders and they’ll tell you he left after a fall-out with Klopp, who ended up running Liverpool from top to bottom.

He will of course still have a big say on what goes on at Anfield, but that won’t be his primary role, although Keys is perhaps right that Klopp’s departure may have played a part in Edwards returning to the fold.

As for his opinion on Slot, talk about counting your chickens before they’ve hatched.
