However they've fallen off a cliff since then with their campaign marred by inconsistencies despite a summer spend that exceeded £400million and twice saw them break the British transfer record.Slot was dealing with hefty expectations but the defending champions will not only relinquish their crown, they could also miss out on Europe's elite competition and the riches that come with it.Jamie Carragher has previously claimed the Dutchman "can't have a leg to stand on" if he misses out on the top five and now Jamie O'Hara is adamant he'll face the chop if he finishes sixth or lower.READ MORE: Jurgen Klopp managerial return stance changing despite RB chief issuing feisty responseREAD MORE: Trent Alexander-Arnold gets thumbs up to complete Liverpool return amid Anfield issuesThe ex-Tottenham midfielder insists last season's success counts for nothing as he said on Sky Sports: "He's in big trouble Arne Slot, he needs to get some results, he needs to get Champions League football.
