Giovanni LeoniIt is not fair to rank Leoni as Liverpool's worst signing under Slot, as he suffered a season-ending injury on his first outing for the Reds, but he must go somewhere in this list, and purely by default, he is last due to us not seeing enough of him.8. Alexander IsakIt's tough to rank Isak fairly as he is yet to get going, but he must be ranked on what we have seen, and what we have seen has not been particularly encouraging.The Premier League's most expensive player of all time has two Premier League goals after tallying 44 in the previous two campaigns combined.Isak probably has too much quality not to eventually come good, but he's been more than a bit naff so far.6.



Federico ChiesaIt's been a long time since Chiesa looked like the player who ripped up Euro 2020, and that is a great shame for the sports, as he was shaping up to be a top, top player for Juventus and Italy.His explosiveness was a key weapon, but that quality deserted him when he suffered a serious knee injury a few years ago, which is why he was so cheap to sign last year.Chiesa has a great song and has scored some important goals for Slot, but he is not particularly trusted by the Dutchman, who has handed the player just two Premier League starts in two seasons.4. Giorgi MamardashviliMamardashvili has had huge gloves to fill when he has deputized for Alisson, and it is harsh to judge him off the ridiculously high standards that the Brazilian has set across his time at Liverpool.He had a spell in the team earlier in the season that was not so good, but he was starting to look a bit more confident recently before injury forced him off against Everton.He's certainly one that Liverpool has high hopes for in the years ahead.3.

Florian WirtzWirtz is perhaps a tad lucky to figure so high up on this list, but he simply has been better and more influential than the players that have already been mentioned.He's still not done anywhere near enough to justify his huge transfer fee and wages, and although he has shown glimpses of his quality in recent times, there needs to be much more to come, or supporters will soon run out of patience with him.Florian Wirtz is getting better(Image: Getty Images)2. Milos KerkezThere's a common theme in this list, and it's that there's plenty more to come from most of the players on it.That is also the case for Kerkez, but with him, it feels as though he is just bedding in.Slot has managed that process poorly — Andy Robertson should have started more games than he has done to ease the transition — but it's easy to envisage Kerkez really kicking on next season, and it is already known that he is more than capable of producing the goods in England after a brilliant 2024-25 season with Bournemouth.1.
