According to reports, a manager is \u2018ready to step in\u2019 to replace head coach Arne Slot at Liverpool as the Premier League giants could sanction a \u2018sudden switch\u2019.<\/p>\n
Slot <\/a>is under immense pressure as Liverpool have lost eight of their last eleven matches in all competitions and six of their last seven in the Premier League.<\/p>\n This dire form has seen the Reds<\/a> fall from the top of the Premier League to the bottom half, while they have also exited the Carabao Cup and have slipped in the Champions League group standings.<\/p>\n Under Slot, Liverpool surpassed all expectations as they clinched their 20th Premier League title in the Dutchman\u2019s debut season. He did a remarkable job as he got more out of Jurgen Klopp\u2019s squad than his predecessor.<\/p>\n However, club chiefs sanctioned a huge squad overhaul in the summer as they spent over \u00a3400m on signings and broke the British transfer record twice, becoming the biggest spenders in Europe. It now appears that they made too many changes in a single window.<\/p>\n READ:\u00a0Top 10 mistakes, missteps and errors in Liverpool\u2019s catastrof*ck title defence<\/a><\/p>\n Most of Liverpool\u2019s summer signings have struggled, while other key players have suffered significant declines this season. This has contributed to Slot\u2019s side becoming toothless in attack, too easy to play through and fragile in defence.<\/p>\n Liverpool have already conceded their Premier League title and face an uphill battle to qualify for the Champions League, with Slot among the favourites to be the next manager sacked.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n Slot likely has credit in the bank after last season, but results need to improve soon if he\u2019s to keep his job beyond this season.<\/p>\n Before Liverpool appointed Slot, it was widely reported that they wanted club legend Xabi Alonso, though he opted to remain at Bayer Leverkusen for one more season before joining Real Madrid.<\/p>\n However, Alonso is also under pressure as he has reportedly been given a sack \u2018ultimatum\u2019 by Real Madrid <\/a>and could even replace Slot at Liverpool.<\/p>\n MORE LIVERPOOL COVERAGE ON F365\u2026
