However, Carragher was left stunned by the timing of the Premier League-winning manager's departure."I was surprised," he said on Sky Sports. Arne Slot was saying that in his press conferences and he was close to appointing a coach, so there's no way the club has sanctioned that if he thought he wasn't going to be in charge.

I'm not happy with that, I don't ever want Liverpool Football Club to have player power to speak out about a manager who won the Premier League."What manager does it help when a star player comes out publicly criticizing the manager, that shouldn't happen, no matter the situation."Maybe it's forced the clubs' hand but the performances have been poor, and my fear was that Liverpool might have a situation where Man United have been where they have a manager they're unsure about, stick with him in the summer and end up changing it two months later. Who does get on with every manager?"Players have lots of different managers, but you don't go out on social media and do it publicly or put clapping emojis when someone's having a go at your own manager.

The football is something Liverpool want to get to, high intense football, but it's not all about that when you're Liverpool manager. Liverpool had a manager who won the league, that's why I was always torn, whoever comes in is a risk but Liverpool did have a manager who won the league."
