Arne Slot has reportedly been given a deadline to turn Liverpool’s fortunes around with Jurgen Klopp linked with an unlikely return to Anfield. Klopp’s comments about returning to Liverpool have done nothing to defuse speculation either.

After he was asked about returning to Liverpool, Klopp said that it’s “theoretically possible.” Given how much of a straight shooter the German is, it’s quite interesting that he didn’t outright deny the possibility. Has Arne Slot been coasting on the foundations left behind by Jurgen Klopp?

For instance, the major difference between the team Klopp had in his final season and the one that Slot inherited and won the league with is Ryan Gravenberch. Slot had Liverpool playing an entirely different brand of football, and to do that and win the league means he deserves a lot more credit.
