Arne Slot has ‘every reason to believe’ he will not be sacked and reveals plans underway for Liverpool’s future

“We have all had our share, and with ‘all’ I mean the players have had their share, the manager has had their share and other people in the club have had their share. That is how things work nowadays if you don’t win the league.”

Liverpool will look for a replacement for the departing Mohamed Salah in the summer and Slot has been played a part in determining their future plans.

He added: “We know where we go on tour, so our plans have been made and talks have been ongoing between the club and new players and I am involved in that.”

There has been a sense that many Liverpool supporters want Slot to go and he said: “I think the world has gone to if a manager or a club doesn’t have their best season there is always a debate about that, it is not only Liverpool it is all around the world. That is the new reality in football.

“It is not up to me to judge the people who judge me, they have every right to have their opinion and in this modern time everyone can share his opinion as well. By the way, this happened 10, 15 years ago as well but then you did it in a pub and not everyone heard it. Now it is more out in the open than it was back in the days, and that is everywhere the same so I would be surprised if that had been different here at Liverpool.”
