    I think he suggesting there is more than one voice… which stacks up,

    I think he is asking for more direct team and man management aka a manager. Suggesting that just coaching the group isn’t the same as before and is a huge change,

    as for whether he means a manager to work with Slot …? Strange one that.. but who knows ? he said he was keeping it to himself, for those who can comprehend…

    But my hunch is he is asking that maybe the setup could return to something similar as it was with Klopp. Let the manager - which in this case should be Slot - make all the decisions… rather than what seems a disjointed setup across multiple staff.

    So everything the Head Coach does, PLUS squad planning, scouting, and contract negotiations.

    All guesswork off course. Not easy to get players to come clean, Not easy when you are being paid - is it 😉

    But it’s a few players now who have gone vocal.

    Something isn’t working for them,

    I think you might be reading too much into the ramblings of a player.

    The system Liverpool has now:


    • Michael Edwards (CEO of Football): The overarching boss of the football operation.*

    • Richard Hughes (Sporting Director): Identifies targets, negotiates contracts, and runs the transfer strategy.*

    • Arne Slot (Head Coach): Focuses purely on tactics, training, and team selection.

    This is one of the biggest things that has changed. And what I suspect Macca and Salah have both alluded to. As players they probably don’t even know how to articulate the finer details of what has changed (from one stop shop Klopp to a team of 3) and likely have differing takes on what is missing, but what took the club from nowhere to the very top clearly had little to do with F$G and much to do with Jurgen Klopp.

    The current system is FSG's ‘perfect world’ a scenario that they tried to implement in 2012.

    Klopp's tenure = a magical anomaly where a manager was so successful that he earned the right to break the structure and run the club himself.

    Slot's tenure = a return to the ‘Machine’ a highly efficient, data-driven structure where the coach is a specialised employee, not the manager.

    IF the data-driven approach turns Slot into Paisley - I will happily admit I was wrong because my hope of us becoming relentless winners… will be a reality. Glory Hunter

    All we can do it wait and see which bears the most fruit 🤔
