Liverpool were soundly beaten 2-0 away to Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League, with journalist Henry Winter bemoaning Arne Slot’s approach. Slot went with a three-man defence, using Jeremie Frimpong and Milos Kerkez as wing-backs, explaining his choice of tactics after the game.



“And that way I thought we could try to press them really high and aggressive because Jeremie and Milos are also two players… if you press Hakimi and if you press Nuno Mendes they play and they start to run more. “They don’t start to run, by the way, they start to sprint and actually it’s not even sprinting, it’s just a level above sprinting and you have to cope with that.” Writing on X, Winter wasn’t impressed with such a negative approach, saying it wasn’t befitting of Liverpool in the Champions League: “Courage has usually defined Liverpool’s play, especially in Europe.

Sad to see.” Another nail in Arne Slot’s coffin at Liverpool Wednesday’s game was wholly predictable, in terms of PSG’s dominance and Liverpool’s lack of quality, and a miracle is needed at Anfield next week. This simply hasn’t been good enough from Slot from August onwards, and while he shouldn’t take sole blame, the players look uninspired and unfit, which is down to him and his coaching team.
