Liverpool coach Arne Slot says this season has been the most difficult he has ever had as a coach. This, a season after becoming champion. The defeat against Manchester City last Sunday leave the 'Reds' in sixth place in the table, four points behind Chelsea, and just above Brentford. However, inconsistent performances and results led to many resignations aimed at Slot. «Toughest season as a coach? By far. In all the other times I trained, there were only positive aspects. I don't think I've ever lost two games in a row [até agora]. It's an exception for me, I'm not used to it", he said, ahead of Sunderland's Premier League game. “I don’t think we feel like we’ve only lost two of the last 17 games. A draw feels like a defeat. The players know what Liverpool's standards mean and we are not playing to those standards. They feel this disappointment», he continued. Slot replaced Klopp as coach of the 'Reds' in June 2024 and led the club to a record 20 top-flight titles in his first season in charge. Before that, he coached AZ and Feyenoord.
