Honestly, what's happening this season was more or less what I expected to happen last season, a change in playing style, new players he was trying to evaluate, pressure after following on from a much lived manager.
Certainly, there are issues there he needs to sort, and quickly, but if the club brought in the manager they decided was the best longterm fit for both the players and structures of the club, all that can't just be thrown out the window in a fit of pique?
It's much too soon to talk about dumping the best option out there just a few months ago, imo.
But the early concession of goals does need to be sorted or everything else is moot as fans will turn, so that needs sorting.
Liverpool appointed Klopp after a bad season at Dortmund when many started to question his methods. The usual “figured him out” nonsense.
The conclusion was that based on their analysis, he was mostly unlucky with results and injuries.
I do not have access to Liverpool’s data, but headline numbers suggest the same for Slot. Also, I’m certain that internally there is a better understanding of the impact from Jota’s sad passing.
Is Slot really under pressure of being sacked?

Gomez again?
"Is Slot really under pressure of being sacked?"
From the media? Definitely.
From the fans? To some extent.
From the club? I don't think so, no.

That's fair, I'd say.
For the media, there's so much pressure to churn out articles that some(many?) find the easiest narrative to follow.
And would it be fair to say that most of the fans looking for him to be sacked were those who were the most orgasmic after we won the transfer window?
But it's reassuring to think the club still has a long-term view of what's best for the club.
Us wools are pretty distant from the day to day conversations about the club around the city so that's good news.
Is Isak injured(rumours suggest he needs an operation) or is he just not match fit and playing could actually exacerbate his injury 🤔🤔
I can't believe they'd be playing him if he needs an operation, that seems unlikely?
