One pundit is bothered about the canonisation of Liverpool boss Arne Slot at the Dutchman s former club Feyenoord after recent defeat.
Slot has made a positive start as the new Reds boss with four wins from a possible five in the Premier League and a .
Despite , Slot couldn t have wished for a much better start after succeeding Jurgen Klopp as manager during the summer.
Slot s former club Feyenoord won the Dutch Cup and finished as runners-up in the Eredivisie last season under the current boss.
However, Feyenoord are currently sitting fifth in the Dutch top flight while they had a disappointing 4-0 loss to German champions Bayer Levekusen in the Champions League in midweek.
And now journalist Valentijn Driessen is frustrated that there seems to be a canonisation of Slot despite the Liverpool boss struggling in Europe with Feyenoord last term.
Driessen told : That good season… internationally it was not such a good year for Feyenoord,” he said.
That canonisation of Arne Slot, that bothers me a bit too. If you look at the figures, last season in the Champions League they simply lost twice to Atlético Madrid, who were No.3 of Spain.
Then Lazio, they won at home. But they lost away to Lazio and also at Celtic. Then you go on to the Europa League and you are eliminated by AS Roma, against whom you have already lost a [Conference League] final.
What now, a great European season under Arne Slot? Last season it wasn’t much either.
