SLOT FEELS ‘SAFE’ AT LIVERPOOL

ARNE Slot insists he is confident of avoiding the sack despite troubled Liverpool’s swak 4-1 defeat against PSV Eindhoven on Wednesday.

The Reds, losers in six of their last seven Premier League matches, were expected to dominate on all fronts this term following last season’s title triumph with a close-season spending spree.

But Liverpool head to West Ham at 4.05pm on Sunday languishing in 12th place in the Premier League.

Despite enduring Liverpool’s second-heaviest European defeat, Slot is adamant he retains the support of US-based owners Fenway Sports Group.

Slot wysed: “I am feeling safe, I am okay. I have got a lot of support from above.

“It would be nice to turn it around and get a victory, of course, but if you are not doing well then it is normal that questions are asked.

“I am okay with my position. It is not the first time I’ve been in a difficult position, but it is about time that we turned it around.

“I’m not worried. What I mean by that is my focus is on other things than on my own position. I need to do better and that’s what I’m trying to do every single day.”
