🔗 Share this article Slot Asserts He Is Secure and Has The Club's Support After PSV Eindhoven Loss The Liverpool head coach acknowledged that it was expected for doubts to be asked about his position following a further heavy loss against the Dutch champions. Liverpool endured their 9th defeat in 12 matches, representing the team's poorest run after being relegated in the 1953-54 season. They were taken apart by the Dutch league title holders on a difficult night at Anfield. “I feel secure, I am OK, I have got a lot of support from the top,” the coach remarked. “It would be great to turn it around and earn three points naturally but if you are working as a coach and struggling then it is normal that people question you.” He noted, “I accept my situation. This isn't the first time I’ve been in a tough spot but it's necessary that we changed our fortunes.” Discussions with Club Management Upon being questioned to expand on his conversations with the team officials, the head coach revealed: “There's regular dialogue. They are supportive to the team and for me and those talks happen but they aren't calling me constantly of the day to say they back me.” He further stated, “Through standard exchanges I perceive the trust. But I've not talked to them after this match so far so let’s see.” Familiar Issues and Player Response Slot expressed regret over known shortcomings from his team in their European defeat, specifically poor finishing and defensive lapses. Meanwhile, player Jones was more forthright in his assessment of the club’s predicament. “I don’t have the solutions. Frankly, I don’t. I'm telling that to everybody,” the midfielder stated. “It is unacceptable. I don’t even have to wait to think about it. I’m past getting mad internally. I’m at the point now where I simply lack the phrases.” He added, “It’s hard because I play for the side I follow. I’m a fan, and I’ve seen this club since I was young.” “For many years, I've not seen a Reds side going through a spell of this nature with results this poor.” Jones finished, “But we still have that badge on our chest. And as long as that badge is taken away, we’re always going to compete.” “We will attempt to bring this squad return to the top, show everyone once more the values of this club and the reason it's called the greatest side in the planet.” “However currently, we're in trouble and we have to turn it around.”
