Arne Slot's Liverpool have had a dreadful season so far (Image: Getty)Liverpool are very much in a crisis after Saturday's 3-0 thrashing against Nottingham Forest. Slot needs to show, and fast, that he can address some of these problems or Liverpool are well within their right to axe him before the season is out.



His squad is arguably stronger than it was last season, but the players are just not performing how they should be.Slot needs to give his bosses an indication that he can steer the team out of their mini-crisis. He has already lifted the title, and if they hadn’t run into PSG last season, who knows where they would have ended up in the Champions League?This start to the season is horrific, of course, but Slot has earned the right to turn things around.

He deserves time and patience.Arne Slot's Liverpool have lost 6 of their 12 Premier League games this season (Image: Getty)Aaron MorrisDespite heading into the season with a feeling of invincibility, given he managed to guide Liverpool to the Premier League title last term with very little effort in the summer transfer window, Arne Slot will surely be feeling the heat as a result of the Reds’ recent run of poor form. Meanwhile, the choice to ship out Jarell Quansah to Bayer Leverkusen could also raise eyebrows, considering how well he is performing in the Bundesliga and Liverpool’s lack of depth in the position.As for how long Slot has left at the helm, I believe that he has the rest of the season given his accomplishment of winning the league last season, regardless of whether Liverpool’s current run of form continues or worsens.
