🔗 Share this article The Merseyside club Refuses to Alter Offensive Approach Amid Poor Run of Form, Says Arne Slot Liverpool's head coach has revealed that the team leadership agree with his assessment regarding the poor performance streak and he refuses to compromise their offensive approach in pursuit of a turnaround. The manager conceded that six defeats in seven outings was unacceptable ahead of the weekend fixture with Villa. Increasing Scrutiny Throughout Tough Spell Slot accepted the scrutiny was intense before his makeshift team were eliminated from the Carabao Cup against the London club. However, he insisted that this urgency to stop the losing streak is not coming from the club's ownership or football administration following a significant spending of approximately £450 million. "They say similar things," remarked the Liverpool boss, whose side will meet Los Blancos in the Champions League and visit Pep Guardiola's side in the domestic competition. Player Depth Stays Unchallenged The coach is convinced his team "have an unbelievable squad if they are completely available and all ready for the schedule ahead". He said that the recent signings in players such as the German international and the Swedish striker, who is probably unavailable again against Villa through injury, had left the club "in an excellent position for the short-term future and the distant prospects". Integration Challenges When asked why his team were struggling to integrate, he answered: "That question isn't constructive. 'What's causing this?' I give an explanation and people say I'm making justifications. I can list multiple factors why we are struggling for victories or suffering defeats as we do but, as I say every time, there are insufficient justifications to have a results sequence as we had now." No matter if I could identify numerous reasons Leading this club you should not suffer defeats Unfortunately six defeats in seven games Defensive Statistics Only the Clarets (twenty-one) have faced more big chances from normal situations this season than the Merseysiders (nineteen). The table-toppers, Arsenal, have conceded only two. Yet Liverpool's coach rejects the defense has been too vulnerable and asserts there is no basis to abandon offensive philosophy for a defensive approach after ten matches without a goalless performance. "From my perspective we don't giving up numerous openings so I find no basis to alter our approach completely but we have to enhance in not conceding goals," he stated. Particular Cases "Versus the Red Devils, how many opportunities did we allow? When playing Frankfurt when we were 3-1 up, we hardly conceded a shot on target. In all the games we played until now we haven't conceded a numerous openings. Not at all. We do concede a bit more than the previous campaign but that stems from us being 1-0 down so you take a bit more risk. But overall I don't feel that our challenge is that we allow too many opportunities. Our issue is we are unable to finish the openings we produce."
