Peter Crouch: How Arne Slot can become one of Liverpool's greatest
Former striker Peter Crouch says Arne Slot still has a unique chance to cement his legacy at Anfield despite mounting pressure. The transition from Jurgen Klopp’s era has caused friction and debate among fans about the tactical direction, but Crouch believes the season is far from settled and a historic conclusion remains possible.
Crouch acknowledges the journey has been bumpy but there is time to win over skeptics. After leading Liverpool to the Premier League title in his debut season last year, Slot has struggled this term; the Reds currently sit fifth and are fighting to secure Champions League qualification.
Speaking to Paddy Power, he said: "There’s still a long way to go in the season. It’s not been a great season and some of the decisions plus the style of football has rubbed the fans up the wrong way at times." A major European trophy, Crouch argues, could instantly elevate Slot’s standing.
