"Having picked up just their second league win since September 20th against West Ham at the weekend, had Arne Slot found a way to stop the rot at Liverpool? The answer was a resounding no. Not necessarily for the result against an in-form Sunderland, but more so for the performance that the Dutchman's side produced in a 1-1 draw at Anfield."
"Going further back, it's now just 15 wins in the last 32 games in all competitions, a truly dire record for any football club with ambitions to win trophies. But even so, if Slot is, as he has been so far, afforded time due to some understandable mitigating circumstances, the performances, decision-making, tactical changes, substitutions and man-management must be at least showing reasons to keep him in charge of the club."
Liverpool secured only their second league win since September but followed it with a 1-1 home draw against Sunderland, exposing deeper problems. The team has managed four wins in fourteen games across all competitions and just two victories in the last seven Anfield matches. Overall record stands at 15 wins from 32 recent fixtures, a worrying return for a trophy-aspiring club. Tactical choices produced a negative first half, with a 4-4-2 isolating forwards and wide players retreating deep out of possession. Decision-making, substitutions and man-management are flagged as lacking despite mitigating circumstances surrounding the manager.
