He did not hide. He did not shift blame.

After the game, Arne Slot gave a blunt and honest assessment after the 3-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest, a result that deepened Liverpool’s Premier League crisis. Slot said, “Another big disappointed.” “Started off quite well.” “Got our chances.” “Throughout the whole game they threw themselves in front of every ball.” “After the first goal we weren’t able to play the same as we did in the first half hour.” He admitted the scale of the slump, adding, “We are in a very bad spell.” “It’s that simple.” “We also know in a few days we play Champions League.” Slot made it clear that he takes the blame.

He said: “If things go well or things go bad it’s always my responsibility.” “We weren’t able to create enough. We weren’t able to score a goal.” He also stressed he still believes in his squad, “We have quality players.” “It’s my job to get the best out of them.” “I am not at the moment.” “That’s why I say it’s my responsibility.” And he ended with a call for resilience, “Keep our head up.” “Work incredibly hard and try to turn things around.” “It’s been difficult to this until now.” Liverpool now face a tough response test, with Champions League football only days away.
