Liverpool stars break their silence on Arne Slot's sacking

Reasons for Liverpool sacking Arne Slot emerge as Virgil van Dijk makes demand

Liverpool sacked Arne Slot after one season following a fifth-place Premier League finish, with FSG citing lack of on-pitch identity, poor tempo, and form drops from key players including Konaté, Gakpo, and Mac Allister. Captain Virgil van Dijk has publicly demanded accountability from the squad, signalling that the next manager inherits a dressing room under pressure to self-correct rather than a rebuild-from-scratch project.
