"No I don't," the former Liverpool defender told BBC Radio 5 Live Breakfast when asked if he thought Slot would start the 2026-27 campaign in charge."It's a big ask for them to get a Champions League place. It's not gone to plan at all."When asked if he would want former Reds midfielder Xabi Alonso to replace Slot, Warnock said: "I'm not too sure whether that's the right decision - that's more of a nostalgia thing where people want that romance."At Real Madrid the football wasn't fantastic, but he had a very difficult changing room and tried to change the culture."Choose Liverpool.com as a 'Preferred Source' on Google News for quick access to the news you value.Arne SlotWolverhampton Wanderers FCPremier LeagueChampions LeagueFA Cup
