That was a really unhappy and disgruntled fan base, and I think it’s going to be really difficult for Arne Slot to get them back.”Carragher added: “Once you lose that crowd, it’s very difficult.

Now, something really special could happen in terms of a Champions League, maybe you win the FA Cup and you qualify for the Champions League, but I think a lot of supporters have gone on the back of what happened in this last week especially.“One point from Wolves and Tottenham, and losing the first leg against Galatasaray in the Champions League, and I’m not that confident, certainly as I was a few weeks ago, about going through against Galatasaray.”Liverpool.com says: You can sense Liverpool fans are getting fed up of seeing the same thing constantly happen in games, and once the Anfield crowd starts to react negatively, it’s going to take some work for Slot to get them back onside.
