Liverpool fans are furious after reports claimed the club could miss out on Xabi Alonso while continuing to back Arne Slot despite the team’s recent collapse in form. Alonso was once seen as the dream successor to Jurgen Klopp after his incredible unbeaten run with Bayer Leverkusen, but now Chelsea are reportedly pushing hard to bring the Spanish tactician to Stamford Bridge instead. As pressure continues building around Slot following disappointing performances and growing frustration at Anfield, supporters are questioning whether Liverpool are making a massive mistake by standing still while rivals move aggressively in the manager market. The possibility of seeing Alonso join Chelsea has now become one of football’s biggest talking points online.
