Michael Regan/Getty Images Jason McAteer believes that Liverpool made a ‘big statement’ of support for boss Arne Slot due to who spoke to the Dutchman pitchside before the win over Brighton at Anfield on Saturday. There has been widespread speculation over Slot’s job, with one former Premier League star recently remarking it is inevitable he will go at some point.



McAteer feels that it was a big show of support for Slot on the part of the club and he did not let it go unnoticed. Game Date Tottenham Hotspur (A) 20/12 Wolves (H) 27/12 Leeds United (H) 01/01 Liverpool’s next three Premier League games “The guy there talking to Arne Slot – and I’ve got to be honest, that’s really out of character for Billy – that’s Billy Hogan”, McAteer said on beIN SPORTS 1 (13th December, 14:37).

I think that’s a big statement.” Despite Liverpool’s backing, Slot is likely to come under renewed pressure unless he can continue the positive trend in the Reds’ results. Liverpool face a visit to Tottenham Hotspur next up, before then hosting Wolves and Leeds United at Anfield, and Slot will be looking to pick up at least a seven point haul from the three games to show his side really are recovering.
