A year ago, Liverpool won the Premier League, so why is Arne Slot not cut more slack?

When the Anfield pub I was drinking in ran out of lager a few hours after Liverpool were confirmed Premier League champions a year ago today and the place began emptying, the DJ operating out of the venue’s car park seemed lost until someone invited him into a front room to begin a new set.Impromptu house parties were breaking out across the district, and the sense of liberation made me think of New York City in the blackout. Had someone told me during those hazy, unshackled hours that, 12 months later, a debate would be rampant about the future of the person who had steered Liverpool to their 20th championship, I’d have assumed the conversation was about another European giant attempting to take him away.Advertisement
