Following the 1-1 draw against Sunderland at Anfield, doubts surrounding Arne Slot have multiplied. The Dutch coach is struggling to find a convincing playing style for Liverpool and results to support his project, leading to a growing sense of unease among fans and the board. The feeling is that the team has lost its identity and that a shake-up is needed on the bench sooner rather than later.

In this context, the race to find a possible replacement has already begun. The name gaining strength in recent hours is that of Oliver Glasner, the current coach of Crystal Palace. Reports from England suggest that the Austrian coach's profile aligns with what Anfield is looking for: character, tactical discipline, and experience in the Premier League. Furthermore, his contractual situation would facilitate negotiations should events accelerate.

Arne Slot, on the edge of the precipice

Arne Slot's arrival at Liverpool sparked excitement due to his attacking style and ability to develop young talents, even clinching the Premier League title in his first year. However, results have not been favorable this season. The draw against Sunderland, a supposedly weaker opponent, was the final straw for many. The team once again displayed defensive fragility, a lack of ideas in midfield, and a concerning disconnect between the lines that has become all too common this season.

What worries the board the most is not just the inconsistency in the Premier League, but the feeling of stagnation. Players seem not to fully respond to the coach's message, and some key figures in the dressing room are beginning to show signs of frustration on the pitch. If there is not a drastic turnaround in the upcoming matches, all signs point to Slot's era at Anfield coming to an earlier end than expected.

Oliver Glasner, the chosen one in the shadows

Oliver Glasner has earned respect in England for the work he is doing with Crystal Palace. His team competes with order, personality, and a well-defined identity, qualities that have not gone unnoticed by Liverpool. The Austrian stands out for his tactical rigor, ability to adapt systems according to the opponent, and leadership in the dressing room, characteristics highly valued by Anfield in these uncertain times.

Another point in his favor is his record against Liverpool itself. Out of the six matches he has faced the Reds, Glasner has emerged victorious in four, demonstrating his understanding of how to hurt Anfield's side. This, coupled with his experience in European competitions and his knack for getting the best out of squads with limited resources, positions him as the top favorite for the position.

A complex but possible operation

Although Glasner's contract with Crystal Palace expires at the end of the season, if Liverpool opts to bring forward his arrival, they would need to negotiate a financial compensation. However, the Anfield hierarchy believes that the investment would be worthwhile if it stabilizes the team and ensures a solid project for the immediate future.

The coming weeks will be decisive. Each of Arne Slot's matches will be like a final, and any misstep could hasten his departure. Meanwhile, Oliver Glasner's name continues to gain traction in Liverpool's offices, where they can already envision the Austrian coach leading a new era at Anfield, with the mission of returning the Reds to the elite of European football.
