Liverpool Faces Historic Losing Streak Amid Slot's Management Challenges

Liverpool, under head coach Arne Slot, is facing a challenging period marked by defensive vulnerabilities and a four-match losing streak, the worst since 2014. Key defensive weaknesses have been highlighted, particularly with left-back Milos Kerkez struggling against opponents and a lack of tactical coherence affecting players like Conor Bradley and Dominik Szoboszlai. While Liverpool players show improved performances with their national teams, their club form remains inconsistent and nervous, raising concerns about Slot's frequent changes and strategies. The team's recent defeat to Manchester United at Anfield not only continued this poor run but also exposed fitness concerns, with midfielder Ryan Gravenberch sustaining an ankle injury that could impact upcoming matches. Mohamed Salah, a crucial figure for Liverpool, is experiencing a notable dip in form, extending his goalless streak and contributing to the team's offensive struggles. As Liverpool prepares for a critical Champions League match against Eintracht Frankfurt, the pressure mounts on Slot and his squad to reverse this historic slump and regain their earlier season momentum.
