There is increasing unease at Liverpool FC, with reports suggesting several senior players may have lost faith in head coach Arne Slot.
Among those said to be unhappy are key figures including Alisson Becker, Mohamed Salah, Andrew Robertson, Curtis Jones, and Alexis Mac Allister.
Concerns over standards
The reported issue centres around a perceived drop in training intensity and overall standards since around November.
For a squad that has been built on high energy, discipline, and relentless work rate, any decline in those areas is always going to raise concerns — especially among experienced players who have set those standards themselves in recent years.
If true, it points to something deeper than results — a disconnect between manager and squad.
Key exits already confirmed
With Salah and Robertson already confirmed to leave this summer, Liverpool are preparing for significant change.
But there is now a realistic possibility that others could follow, particularly if uncertainty around the manager continues.
When senior players begin to question direction and standards, it often signals a turning point.
Decision rests with ownership
Ultimately, the future of Slot lies with Fenway Sports Group.
An end-of-season review — expected around late May or early June — will assess:
- Performances across the campaign
- Tactical progress
- Dressing room dynamics
That final point may now carry more weight than ever.
Change — but opportunity too
While the situation may sound concerning, it also represents an opportunity.
Liverpool are clearly heading towards a period of transition:
- Senior players departing
- Potential tactical reset
- Possible managerial decision
These moments, while uncertain, can also be the foundation for the next successful era.
A defining few weeks ahead
The coming weeks will be crucial.
Liverpool must balance finishing the season strongly with making big decisions behind the scenes — decisions that could shape the club for years to come.
By early summer, clarity should arrive.
And whether it leads to continuity or change, one thing feels certain:
Liverpool will look very different next season.

In my job I have annual performance management reviews. The goals I agreed to assessed and achievement beyond these. If these criteria were applied to Slot he would be gone. There is no criterion of success I can see. 5th is nothing to be happy with while performances have been regularly well below the standard we expect. The guy is harming the Club and needs replacing.
He should be gone but he won’t and we will tumble more next season.
That’s my concern too.
FSG should sack all 3: Edwards, Hughes and Slot.
