"Asked whether he expected to be in charge next season, the Dutch coach replied: I don't think I am deciding that alone by myself, but I have every reason to believe I am the Liverpool manager next season. First of all, I am contracted to this club and second of all from all the talks we are having. That is my take on it."
"But if you don't have the best season, especially if you compare with last season if you compare it with other seasons you might have a different debate then this has definitely not been a great season and it is also normal that criticism comes. 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."
"Slot reiterated that he is heavily involved in planning for next season with the hierarchy. We know where we go on tour, our plans have been made, and talks have been ongoing between the club and new players and I am involved in that, he said."
"But he accepted that demand for change comes with the territory for a manager after one poor season. 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, Slot said."

Slot acknowledges the season has not been their best compared with prior success and says criticism is normal when results fall short. He states he is heavily involved in planning for next season, including tour plans and talks with potential new players. He also accepts that debate and calls for change follow a poor season, not only at Liverpool but across football worldwide.
