Former Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard said he is “gutted” that Arne Slot has been sacked as head coach despite the team appearing “disjointed and broken” towards the end of the Dutchman’s two-year reign at Anfield.
The Reds confirmed the departure of Slot at lunchtime Saturday, six days on from recording a fifth-place finish in the Premier League. That may have been enough to ensure Champions League football next season but, with the criticism of Mohamed Salah still echoing following a string of bad performances, the club have decided to make a change.
