Slot’s unpopular opinion & why Liverpool are sticking by him

Simon Hughes and James Pearce join Tony Evans to break down Wednesday night’s European rout, standout performances and another injury which further leaves Liverpool frighteningly thin at the back

There’s also reaction to Slot’s eyebrow-raising comments about last season’s title and squad depth, and discussion about why the Liverpool hierarchy are sticking by their man.

Finally, attention turns to a huge weekend clash with Newcastle, with Liverpool winless in five league games and looking over their shoulder at the chasing pack of teams just behind them.
