Feyenoord coach Arne Slot has emerged as the favorite to become Liverpool’s new manager, succeeding German manager Jurgen Klopp. After the end of this season
Meanwhile, Fabrizio Romano, a famous Italian journalist, reports that Liverpool has contacted Slot directly and that initial negotiations are in a good direction.
If the “Reds” decide to bring in Slot to actually work, it is believed that there will be 3 things that will happen at Anfield as follows.
1. Prepare to receive Feyenoord’s players.
Previously, when Liverpool were involved with Ruben Amorim, the coach of Sporting Lisbon, various media believed that the “Reds” would bring in the Lisbon player as well.
Of course, it is normal for a new manager to bring in players from the old team because they already know their skills. For example, Manchester United manager Eric Ten Hag brought in Antoni from Ajax Amsterdam.
If Slot comes to manage Liverpool, be prepared to wait for a Feyenoord player. Previously, Dirk Kuyt, the former “Reds” striker, had advised his old team to grab Lutcharel Geert. Ruida Netherlands national team defender
2. Play with a back four and use a central midfield pair.
The “Reds” during Klopp’s era have almost always played a 4-3-3 system, but if Slot takes over the job, they may change their tactics.
Slot uses a 4-2-3-1 system with Feyenoord, with a pair of central midfielders controlling the game, standing behind 3 attackers and 1 target man.
However, Slots can change tactics as well. Because at this time, Liverpool have many good midfielders to use.
3. is compared with Alonso-Amorim-Ten Haag
Before Slot’s name emerged as a possible candidate to take charge of Liverpool, Xabi Alonso and Ruben Amorim were both favorites.
However, Alonso decided to stay in charge of Bayer Leverkusen, after which Amorim was linked with talks with West Ham United.
It is certain that if Slot takes control of Liverpool, his performance will be compared to both Alonso and Amorim, as well as fellow countrymen like Manchester United manager Eric ten Hag.
