š Share this article Slot Maintains He Is Secure and Has Liverpool's Backing Following PSV Loss Arne Slot conceded that it was understandable for questions to be asked about his position after a further heavy loss versus PSV Eindhoven. Liverpool suffered their 9th loss in twelve matches, marking the club's poorest run after being demoted in the 1953-54 season. They were taken apart by the Dutch league champions on a tough evening at Anfield. āI feel secure, I am OK, I've received significant backing from above,ā the coach remarked. āIt would be great to reverse this trend and earn three points obviously but when you're working as a coach and not doing well then it is normal that questions are asked.ā He continued, āI'm comfortable with my position. This isn't the first time Iāve been in a tough spot but it's necessary that we turned it around.ā Talks with The Board When asked to expand on his discussions with the Liverpool hierarchy, Slot said: āThere's regular dialogue. They are supportive to the team and to me and those talks happen but they don't phone me every single minute of the day to say they trust me.ā He mentioned, āIn the normal exchanges I sense the confidence. But I havenāt spoken to them since this match yet so it remains to be seen.ā Recurring Failings and Squad Reaction The manager lamented familiar failings from his squad in their European loss, specifically poor finishing and defensive lapses. Meanwhile, midfielder Curtis Jones was more forthright in his view of the current crisis. āI haven't got the solutions. Honestly, I do not. Iām saying that to everyone,ā Jones remarked. āIt's simply not good enough. I don't have to wait to think about it. Iām past being angry internally. I've reached the stage now where I simply lack the words.ā He went on, āIt's difficult because Iām playing for the club I love. I'm a supporter, and I've watched this club all my life.ā āIn a long, long time, I've not seen a Liverpool team enduring a period such as this with results like these.ā He concluded, āHowever we continue to wear the emblem on our chest. And as long as that badge is taken away, we will always fight.ā āWe will attempt to bring this squad return to its rightful place, show everyone once more what Liverpool stands for and why it's known as the top club in the planet.ā āAt this moment, we're in trouble and it needs to change.ā
