Liverpool may well look to sack Arne Slot in the near future after their 2-1 defeat to Wolves, according to former Reds defender Stephen Warnock. It has thrown fresh doubt over Slot’s future as Liverpool’s head coach, with the Dutchman battling to save his job throughout this season, following a drastic dropoff from last term.



Speaking on BBC Radio 5 Live on Tuesday [via Football Insider], Warnock claimed that he could see FSG making a change in the dugout at some point this year: “Liverpool are nowhere near where they would like to be. “There is a lot of talk about Arne Slot and what possibly might happen at the end of the season, and I think if he doesn’t get Champions League football, I wouldn’t be surprised if the club made a change.” Is it time for Liverpool and Arne Slot to part ways?

It really does feel as though a change is needed at Liverpool, sooner rather than later, even though Slot has overseen some improved results of late, and won the title last season. It still feels unlikely that FSG will sack Slot before the end of the season, unless Liverpool’s form is so bad that a top-five finish is in genuine jeopardy, but a new boss needs to be brought in when the summer arrives.
