Arne Slot has been unable to replicate the success from his debut season when Liverpool won their second Premier League title.
Earlier in the campaign, there was talk about replacing Arne Slot from the fans amid a run of nine defeats in 12.
Results have since improved, with Liverpool looking to make it 12 games unbeaten when they take on Burnley on Saturday.

He said: “I’ve never been one to say ‘sack him, sack him’, but at the end of the season, I can see them parting ways.
“It’s too boring lad. It’s too boring. We were so spoilt with Jurgen. We’re just so boring to watch at the minute.
“I’m sick of this passing backwards and then back to the keeper. I’d rather someone just have a shot or just hoof it up, all this passing around the back four absolutely does my head in.
“I’ve been at the games the last few weeks, that Leeds game was one of the worst games of football I’ve ever watched.”

Will Arne Slot leave Liverpool mid-season
We know that FSG have never been quick to make decisions, whether that be on the manager or transfer front.
However, there remains a chance that Liverpool could dismiss Slot in the middle of the campaign and replace him with an interim coach.
David Lynch did not rule out that happening this term, but suggested it would take another big losing streak for it to take place.
He said: “I think an interim is on the table if it gets really, really bad.
“They [FSG] clearly didn’t want to do it around the time it was nine defeats in 12. And they made the call that Slot would be better than any interim. But I wouldn’t rule that out at all.
“I think if it gets really, really bad again and they think we’ve just got to do something to stop it being as bad as it is.
“If he [Slot] suffers nine defeats in 12 over the next 12 games, they’ll go for an interim.”
