Arne Slot is struggling to ease the mounting pressure at Liverpool as the club’s woes continue to pile up.The Reds, reigning Premier League champions, have stumbled this season and now sit 14 points adrift of leaders Arsenal after 20 games. Despite a nine-match unbeaten run across all competitions, Slot’s position has come under repeated scrutiny in recent months, with little to suggest that confidence in him has been restored.The Dutch manager has yet to find consistent solutions to the problems plaguing Anfield, leaving fans increasingly frustrated. Liverpool’s 2-2 draw at Fulham on Sunday was emblematic of their struggles. After clawing back from an early deficit, Cody Gakpo put the visitors ahead in the fourth minute of stoppage time, only for Harrison Reed to snatch a dramatic equalizer for Fulham with a sensational long-range strike in the 97th minute. The result marked a second consecutive draw against lower-half opposition, compounding supporter frustrations.Fans took to X to voice their anger, with many calling for Slot’s immediate dismissal. One supporter branded the Fulham result as “shocking management,” while another warned: “If Slot isn’t sacked tonight, I don’t know where this club is going.”Former Everton and Aston Villa CEO Keith Wyness, speaking to Football Insider, suggested that much of the blame lies with Michael Edwards rather than Slot. Controversy over Mohamed Salah’s unhappiness at the club has intensified scrutiny on the manager, but Wyness argued that structural issues within the hierarchy are at the heart of Liverpool’s struggles.While Slot remains in the spotlight, fans appear to have lost faith in the club’s ability to recover, and many expect that, regardless of the underlying causes, the manager will ultimately shoulder the consequences.
