Liverpool head coach Arne Slot has reiterated that he feels completely supported by the club and its fans, despite the team's recent struggles. Liverpool have lost three consecutive games, including a 2-0 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League quarter-final and a 4-0 loss to Manchester City in the FA Cup.

With Liverpool currently fifth in the Premier League, just one point ahead of Chelsea in sixth, Slot is aware of the pressure to secure a top-five spot and Champions League football next season. He acknowledged that the team has not been performing at the desired level but is confident that they can improve and compete with the best teams. Slot also provided updates on the fitness of his players, including the return of club-record signing Alexander Isak from injury and the ongoing recovery of goalkeeper Alisson Becker.
