I hope Slots can fix things soon and the players get back to their best - but this time it will take time.
I am looking forward to seeing the players that Liverpool will try to bring in at the next transfer window, because the players they have brought in for this season are performing below expectation except Ekitike.
The first mistake from Liverpool was letting Luis Diaz go just like that, the second mistake was allowing Salah to stay, and the third was buying overpriced players.
Luis Diaz was one of their best attackers, a top performer essential for the kind of football Liverpool stands for. They also would have allowed Salah to go and tried other options from the market there, and they never would have gone for players like Isak when they already had Ekitike, who was keen on making an impression.
"Don't fix what is not broken." That is a common saying, and that was what Arne Slot tried to do: fix a Liverpool team that was really good from last season. I think he will get sacked before the end of the season because Liverpool will still lose more games.
All these are not the reasons for Liverpool's collapse in form. You're only saying these because of what is happening to them currently. The team is just out of form; it happens. They are not struggling because they bought expensive players, they're not struggling because they kept Salah, and they're not struggling because they let Diaz go.
This is not the first time something like this has happened.
Madrid won the Champions League and La Liga, and the next season, they went trophyless, even after adding Mbappe to the team. They were just out of form.
The players in Liverpool now are good players, and don't be surprised to see them playing very well if a new manager comes.
This only shows that spending big doesn't automatically means the team will perform well. There are a lot of other factors that will determine if a team will be good. PSG had Messi, Neymar and Mbappe yet couldn't win the Chmaions league, but they did with Barcola, Dembele and Vitinha. Thats football for you. A balanced and in form team may be better than a team with superstars.
