Liverpool’s inability to hold onto a lead at Elland Road increases the pressure on Arne Slot, whose in-game management was as questionable as Ibrahima Konate‘s defending. Slot has nowhere to hide If Slot were to have any chance of arguing that his team were in the midst of turning a corner during this run, then he at least needed points, if not performances.

The tactical changes were baffling It is not just Slot’s tactics that left a lot to be desired, either, with his substitutions also playing their part in dropped points. But his slump in form has now been so prolonged that you wonder whether it would be wise for the Reds to offer him that new contract.

Aaron Briggs should be sweating If Slot is to keep hold of his job despite recent form, then perhaps it will be because it is so easy to point the finger elsewhere. And set-piece coach Aaron Briggs will surely be sweating given Liverpool’s record from such situations so far this season.
