The fallout from Liverpool’s heavy defeat to Manchester City has gone beyond just the result — with sections of the travelling Liverpool FC support making their feelings very clear.
Reports from the Etihad suggest some fans began leaving with around 20 minutes to go, while others were heard singing about Xabi Alonso — a clear sign of growing frustration with Arne Slot.
A Performance That Raised More Questions
The 4-0 defeat didn’t just knock Liverpool out of the FA Cup — it has also raised serious concerns about what comes next.
With a huge Champions League tie against Paris Saint-Germain on the horizon, confidence has taken a major hit.
Based on this performance, many fans will now be questioning whether Liverpool have what it takes to get past PSG.
Worrying Form
The bigger concern is the overall trend.
According to Opta, Liverpool have now lost 15 games this season, their highest total in a single campaign since Brendan Rodgers’ final full season in 2014/15 (18 defeats).
And with at least nine games still to play, that number could yet rise.
That is not the level expected at Liverpool.
Uncomfortable Comparisons
For many fans, the current feeling around the club is starting to feel very familiar — and not in a good way.
There are clear comparisons being made to the final months under Brendan Rodgers:
Inconsistent performances Heavy defeats Loss of confidence Growing frustration in the stands
Back then, Rodgers was backed by Fenway Sports Group before eventually being dismissed early the following season, when Jürgen Klopp arrived.
Pressure Growing On Slot
It’s important to say — not all fans will feel the same, and it’s still relatively early in Slot’s time at the club.
But moments like this matter.
Fans leaving early…
Fans singing about another manager…
Heavy defeats in big games…
These are the signs of pressure beginning to build.
Massive Games Ahead
The timing couldn’t be more crucial.
With PSG up next, Slot now faces a huge task:
Lift the players Restore confidence Get the fans back on side Keep the season alive
Because if results don’t improve quickly, the noise around his position will only grow louder.
