The 4-0 defeat was the heaviest of Slot's Liverpool reign, and was the worst possible preparation for this week's trip to Paris in the Champions League.The Reds were flying when they came up against PSG last season and still ended up going out, so it goes without saying that their chances of progression appear significantly slimmer this time around.READ MORE: Man City losing Bernardo Silva exposes problem Liverpool must work hard to avoidREAD MORE: Richard Hughes is 'massive fan' of Spanish manager — and it is not Xabi AlonsoThe Athletic reports that Liverpool's FSG owners still want to give Slot the chance to turn things around, but there is an acceptance that they may be left without a choice if the next few of weeks do not go to plan.Across the next fortnight, Liverpool faces two games against PSG, as well as a Premier League game against Fulham and a Merseyside derby.Even if Liverpool does lose to PSG, there is still a huge amount to play for over the remainder of the league campaign, with Champions League qualification still very much on.The Reds currently occupy fifth place in the standings, which will be enough for a place at Europe's top table next term.Liverpool lost 4-0 to City on Saturday(Image: 2026 Simon Stacpoole/Offside)After Liverpool's loss to City, Slot spoke in his post-game press conference about what must happen for his team to have a chance of success against PSG."There are only three or four days to go, so there are a few things you can do, and one of the things we need to do if we play against Paris Saint-Germain or against Man City – teams of this level – you need to defend better than we did in the 20 minutes when we conceded the four goals," Slot said."I think no one will probably remember it but [in] the first 35 minutes there was a lot to like from my team.



And it would be nice if we then can score a goal once in a while as well from the chances we create."And, again, we faced a team that was outperforming their xG by a mile, and that’s what happens constantly."And we every time are under that. But if you want to have a chance of beating Paris Saint-Germain, you have to do both parts better."Choose Liverpool.com as a 'Preferred Source' on Google News for quick access to the news you value.Arne SlotLiverpool FCManchester City FC
