Liverpool is about to face PSV Eindhoven in the Champions League. Before the game, Slott was interviewed and talked about the team's performance and the decline in the Premier League this season.

Confusion and self-blame about the current situation

"With so many excellent players, I can't lead the team to find a way to win. How is this possible? When you are a professional coach, you know that this is also part of life, but if you are the head coach of Liverpool, you will not think of losing like this. "Everyone is surprised, including me. If you win the league, of course we will benefit from it. We have signed some great players but it is very important for us. You don't expect to get into the kind of losing streak we're in now."

"Even if we don't sign anyone, or all the players leave, you don't expect Liverpool to lose six games in their last seven games in the Premier League."

"For me, there's never enough. That's what makes it difficult for me because I'm the kind of person who likes to explain things. If you can explain things, you can find a way to solve them."

In response to Van Dijk

"So I think it's me. Let the players down. At the end of the day, that's my responsibility. If the players don't perform to the standard that I expect, that they don't perform to the standard that they expect, that our fans and everyone around the world expects, that's my responsibility because I need to make sure they meet their standards. Accurate. And at this moment, in my opinion, for most of the game, they still did it."

Looking to the future and defensive issues

"I don't think this is a moment to learn from the past, but to look forward. I want to lead the team to repeat the performance of last season. There are a lot of similar things, but there are one or two details that cost us a lot, which are different from last season. "

"One of the details is that up until this moment last season, we had not conceded any goals from set pieces, and now we have conceded 9 set pieces in the Premier League. Position ball."

"Overall, this is still a team with a high possession rate, this is still a team that creates enough opportunities, but I am responsible for conceding too many goals."

"We may get different results, and it may be harder than I think to do simple things."
