"Liverpool suffered defeat against Crystal Palace in the EFL Cup on Wednesday night. It was another setback for manager Arne Slot and his team who are struggling to perform this season and going through their worst form for a long time. The Reds have fallen down to seventh position in the league after four defeats in a row. Now, they have been eliminated from the EFL Cup at the hands of their bogey team Crystal Palace and that too at Anfield."
"We've discussed Slot's contract renegotiation and how these things often slow. Now there are reports the talks are on hold. He'll know he's not in a strong position to negotiate right now. I think that's as far as it goes. I don't see genuine pressure on him at the moment. If this poor Premier League run lasts another four games, then you might see real concern."
"There's quality in that squad and he has to get them firing. It's not terminal, they should put it right, and you'd expect them to turn it around. I don't see a long-term issue. It's a blip, and I expect them to find form. Those top players must hit their stride, and if Salah sparks into form, that's likely the route back for Slot."
Liverpool lost to Crystal Palace in the EFL Cup at Anfield and have suffered four consecutive defeats, dropping to seventh in the league. The team is enduring its worst form in a long time and has been eliminated from the cup by a familiar bogey side. Manager Arne Slot faces intense criticism for team selection and for exposing youngsters, despite the club's record summer spending on Alexander Isak, Florian Wirtz and Hugo Ekitike. Former CEO Keith Wyness says contract-renegotiation talks are paused and Slot is not in a strong negotiating position. Wyness warns that another four poor league games would trigger genuine concern.
