Liverpool could be searching for a new head coach before too long as pressure continues to mount on Arne Slot. The Dutch boss is coming under increasing pressure after a dismal run of form for the Reds in which they have lost an incredible nine times in their last 12 outings.
Losing 3-0 to Nottingham Forest on the weekend, Slot's side were thumped 4-1 by PSV Eindhoven in the Champions League on Wednesday night to truly test fans' patience as the Premier League champions continue to look like a shell of their former selves.
If things don't improve quickly, Slot will almost certainly find himself given the boot and that will mean that Liverpool will need to find a replacement who can get the club and their big-name stars firing once again.
Jurgen Klopp Isn't The Answer

In order to get Liverpool firing again, reports have suggested that the club could look to a familiar face in Jurgen Klopp. The German boss is a legend on Merseyside after winning it all during his time at the club.
The lure of bringing an iconic figure back to Anfield is clearly appealing in the hope that he can galvanise the players and fans, but football is a sport bereft of sentiment.
Just because Klopp achieved incredible things during his last reign at the club, it doesn't mean that he is what they need in this moment. The players employed by Liverpool right now are very different to what Klopp managed and that means that the challenge will be very different as well.
Legacy is a powerful thing and so Klopp returning to Anfield would be a huge gamble in which his reputation with Liverpool fans could be at risk if things don't go to plan. As a result, the Reds must look to the future with one man suggesting that he could be the ideal next man in the Liverpool dugout.
Oliver Glasner Is 'Incredible'

While Klopp isn't the answer, one Premier League boss could be the perfect man to succeed Slot at Anfield.
Oliver Glasner is facing an uncertain future at Crystal Palace with his contract at the club set to expire at the end of the season. Despite being offered a deal, the Austrian boss is seemingly reluctant to commit his future amid links to elite-level clubs like Liverpool.
Described as 'incredible', Glasner is a manager who is destined for the top. His days at Crystal Palace appear to be numbered but he has already showed his credentials as a winner having guided the Eagles to glory in the FA Cup and Community Shield.
Building a structure which is based on getting the best out of a talented group of players, the 51-year-old would bring an entertaining, effective brand of football to Anfield which would be perfectly tailored to helping the club out of their current predicament.
