"Slot will face the brunt of the pressure, but he's not the only one to blame. If you're looking for the root of Liverpool's demise from being champions last season to the position they're in now, two main players stand out."
"First is the mistakes made by the centre-back, Konate, and his performances so far this season. It's been a major concern for Liverpool, how weak they look defensively compared to before when they were almost impregnable, and his form is a big reason."
"Mohamed Salah is the other, and the fall he has had from the records he was breaking last season to now where he looks a shadow of his former self. He scored 34 goals last season and now he only has 10."
"Both of those players, if you were Arne Slot, you could point to them as reasons things haven't worked this season, but ultimately the buck does stop with him."
Liverpool is struggling in the Premier League this season, currently 21 points behind Arsenal after winning the title last season. Manager Arne Slot faces criticism for the team's poor form, having lost ten matches this season. Former Manchester United scout Mick Brown points to Mohamed Salah and Ibrahima Konate as key players responsible for the team's decline. Konate's defensive mistakes and Salah's drop in goal-scoring from 34 last season to just 10 this season are highlighted as major concerns affecting Liverpool's performance.
