Mounting pressure after alarming Premier League run"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Liverpool\u2019s struggles in the Premier League this season have intensified scrutiny around head coach Arne Slot, with fresh data highlighting a worrying decline in results. The Reds have recorded just one Premier League win in 2026, suffering another defeat against Manchester City, a result that has further deepened concerns among fans and pundits alike.<\/p>\n<p>Statistics from Liverpool\u2019s last 20 league matches paint an inconsistent picture. The Merseyside club has managed only six wins, six draws, and eight defeats, collecting a total of 24 points from a possible 60. Such numbers are far from the standards expected of a club that has consistently challenged for major honors in recent years. The inconsistency has not only affected their league position but also raised questions about tactical direction and squad confidence.<\/p>\n<p>Slot arrived at Anfield with a reputation for high-intensity football and a progressive style of play. However, Liverpool\u2019s recent performances suggest that his system has yet to fully settle in the Premier League environment. Defensive lapses, a lack of cutting edge in attack, and an inability to control key moments in big matches have become recurring themes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Liverpool\u2019s struggles in the Premier League this season have intensified scrutiny around head coach Arne Slot, with fresh data highlighting\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":202,"featured_media":43867,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4650],"tags":[3798,3686,3918,1823,3796,219,3800,4188,3940,3811,4754,1286],"class_list":["post-43866","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-premier-league","tag-arne-slot","tag-david-ornstein","tag-english-premier-league","tag-fabrizio-romano","tag-football","tag-liverpool","tag-manchester-city","tag-sack-arne-slot","tag-sacked","tag-slot","tag-virgil-van","tag-virgil-van-dijk"],"reading_time":"1 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43866","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/202"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=43866"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43866\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":43868,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43866\/revisions\/43868"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/43867"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=43866"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=43866"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=43866"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
