Former Liverpool midfielder Danny Murphy has urged the Reds to sack Arne Slot and appoint a manager who must be \u201cbored\u201d in his current role.<\/p>\n
The Reds won the Premier League title last season in Arne Slot\u2019s first season at Liverpool but they had a campaign to forget in 2025\/26.<\/p>\n
Liverpool<\/a> ended the season in fifth position and scraped into the Champions League after picking up just two points from their final four matches.<\/p>\n There has been pressure on Slot for much of the season with criticism of their performances, even when they\u2019ve been winning games.<\/p>\n Large part of the fanbase seem to be ready for the club to appoint a new manager next season but there are reports indicating they could be set to stick Slot ahead of a post-season review.<\/p>\n But Murphy has warned Liverpool that they face being put in a difficult position only a month or two into next season if Slot starts next term badly.<\/p>\n READ:\u00a0West Ham, Spurs, Chelsea, Newcastle and Slot among the Premier League 25\/26 season losers<\/a><\/p>\n Speaking on talkSPORT<\/a>, the former Liverpool midfielder said: \u201cIf Slot doesn\u2019t start well, it\u2019s [pressure] going to start again.<\/p>\n \u201cI don\u2019t think he\u2019s got a big say in the players [recruitment], by the way. But I think he\u2019s going to have some sort of say in the players that come in.<\/p>\n \u201cBut if he starts badly and they\u2019re sitting in fifth, sixth after eight games, it\u2019s done.\u201d<\/p>\n When asked if he would have attempted to bring in Xabi Alonso before Chelsea hired him, Murphy added:\u00a0\u201cI would try and break the bank and do anything I can to get\u00a0Luis Enrique.\u201d<\/p>\n Surely Enrique is bored at PSG \u2013 Murphy<\/p>\n Murphy continued: \u201cWell, if Enrique wins the Champions League again, what more can he do?<\/p>\n
