Manchester: Wayne Rooney, a legendary Manchester United striker, has expressed doubts about Dutch manager Arner Slot's ability to lead Liverpool to success, despite the team's Premier League title win last season.
According to Thai News Agency, Arner Slot's position as Liverpool manager is under intense scrutiny due to the team's underwhelming performance in their current title defense. Liverpool currently finds itself in sixth place in the league standings with 42 points, trailing 15 points behind the top-ranked Arsenal.
Adding to the pressure on Slot are the available high-profile managerial candidates, notably Xabi Alonso, a former Liverpool favorite, who is currently unattached following his departure from Real Madrid. Rooney, who remains Manchester United's all-time leading goalscorer with 253 goals, remarked that his limited interactions with Slot left him unimpressed, especially when compared to the charismatic former Liverpool manager, Jrgen Klopp.
