Liverpool boss faces “emergency meeting” if team fails to beat Leeds, as poor form sparks internal concern.
Pressure is mounting on Liverpool manager Arne Slot, with a crucial report claiming his job security is now directly tied to Saturday’s match against Leeds United and that his methods are causing confusion within the squad.
According to an account on X claiming insider information, an “emergency meeting” was held last week where Slot was informed his position is under threat due to the team’s sustained poor form. The report states that a failure to beat Leeds will trigger another high-stakes meeting on Sunday or Monday.
The situation is reportedly compounded by growing unease among senior players. The source claims that “some senior players are feeling confused about the manager’s tactics, which seem to change daily,” and that this “lack of clarity is affecting the team’s morale and performance on the pitch.”
This alleged internal turmoil follows another frustrating performance in a 1-1 draw with Sunderland at Anfield on Wednesday. Liverpool needed a deflected own goal to salvage a point after conceding to a Chemsdine Talbi shot that also took a lucky deflection.
The result extended a worrying run of just four wins in the last 14 matches across all competitions, leaving Liverpool eighth in the Premier League and adrift of the title race. Champions League qualification is now seen as the essential minimum target for the season.
When asked about his mixed feelings after the Sunderland draw, Slot acknowledged the difficulty of breaking down disciplined opponents but lamented his side’s fortune. “A bit of both,” he said. “I was hoping for more – although I knew how difficult it is to create against them.” He downplayed Sunderland’s goal as “not even a chance,” attributing it to a bad deflection, while admitting his team needed a similar deflection to score their equalizer.
With fan anxiety rising and the report suggesting a fractured relationship with key players, all eyes are now on Elland Road. Saturday’s match against Leeds has transformed from a standard league fixture into what is being described as a potentially decisive referendum on Arne Slot’s tenure at Liverpool.
