The Reds fell well short of the commanding standards they set during the 2024-25 season, which saw them crowned Premier League champions.Slot has faced mounting pressure after suffering 19 defeats across all competitions this season, with Liverpool scraping into the Champions League on the final day of the campaign. I think last season gives you the answer because of how important our wingers were to our success last season."They were scoring goals, providing goals, so they were a vital part of us winning the league last season and, in general in football, you see more and more focus on wingers."Slot admitted his side did not bring the same level as they did during their title winning campaign, and nor did he.

He added: "Last season, one of the reasons why we were so difficult to play against was because we had threats over on the right side, on the left side."Liverpool boss Arne Slot is under pressure ahead of next season. Last season I think if you had to describe the style of play I would describe it as very reliant on the winger-full-back combinations."We have tried that this season again but there hasn't been the end product that we had last season.
