Liverpool will be a ‘different team’ next season, says Slot
LIVERPOOL: Liverpool manager Arne Slot is confident he can win back the support of fans by turning around the Reds’ fortunes next season. A 1-1 draw at home to struggling Chelsea on Saturday was met by a chorus of boos at full-time, while Slot’s decision to replace teengaer Rio Ngumoha also brought howls of derision from the home fans. Despite a disappointing campaign, Liverpool sit fourth in the Premier League and Slot is expected to remain in charge should they seal Champions League qualification. Just over a year ago, the Dutchman was being serenaded as a Liverpool hero after winning the Premier League in his debut season. And he believes his side will be much improved next season. “I do,” said Slot on whether he thinks he can win the fans back over. “Not this season by the way. This season they will have their opinion and it will not change. “If we can have the summer that we are planning to have, then I’m 100 percent convinced that we will be a different team next season than we are now.
