What about Kompany, if I compare with Arne Slot then Arne Slot should be better. So he has better management skills. Feyenoord managed to finish in 2nd place in the Dutch League. While Kompany with Burnley failed to survive in the EPL. I think right now Kompany is also with Munich. With the big history champion in Lague and Europa. They both won the same club with good achievements so there is a heavy burden. When there is a new coach and does not have good statistics it looks bad, but I don't make statistics, statistics are just records sometimes there are always new surprises that can be bad or good.

I personally don't know Arne Slot and I heard his name after Klopp left Liverpool. Yes, of course Arne Slot will definitely not have the potential to get good and instant results to make Liverpool a very strong team, especially in the UCL next season (2024-2025)

Yes, of course we'll just have to see what Arne Slot will do but I'm sure Arne Slot dare to join Liverpool because of course he believes that Liverpool still has good potential for the future. but actually I agree that Liverpool recruited Arne Slot to replace Klopp because if you look at Arne Slot who coached Feyenoord he was very good because in the last season Slot brought Feyenoord to become 2nd champion but in the 2022-2023 season Arne Slot succeeded in making Feyenoord champions in the Eredivisie league.

So yes, I think Arne Slot will definitely work optimally to make Liverpool a strong team. Yes, this is his first experience coaching in a well-known league. Of course this will make us curious, but I also hope that Arne can make Liverpool perform better in the 2024-2025 season and of course I also want to congratulate Arne Slot because he is now in Famous league.

None of us know about the future but in some cases we can make some predictions and sometimes our predictions match. At the moment, Messi and Ronaldo are not in Europe so it is a very easy matter for Mbappe to win the Ballon d'Or. Mbappe didn't do well at PSG but will definitely do well at Real Madrid if he doesn't get injured. At Real Madrid, Mbappe will have quality team-mates who will help him score goals and the successful assists he will make will be well finished by the rest of the club's players. Winning the Champions League title is very important for the player who will be nominated for the Ballon d'Or. If Mbappe had come last season as Real Madrid offered him last season, he might have won the Ballon d'Or this season because Real Madrid won the Champions League title this season and if he played the whole season for Real Madrid, he certainly had a chance.

The fact is as you say and maybe if next season nothing changes all that then Liverpool will not be able to develop further. The depth of their squad decreases every season and the quality of the players is also questionable. Different from his prime when he won the Champions League in 2019 and slowly the players are starting to be replaced. Mohamed Salah is still quite unsure whether he will stay or not, but what is clear is that there is currently no replacement, and besides, his performance is still quite competent in his position.

Darwin Nunez is indeed very funny and he had quite a few opportunities to score goals, but again his finishing was deemed unable to bring Liverpool to a definite victory. Some time ago he returned to Uruguay to play a match, but strangely he scored a hat trick and I asked whether there was a difference in his quality at Liverpool and in Uruguay? Could it be that the language problem was an obstacle for him in adapting to the Liverpool squad, maybe for those who don't know, during several seasons at Liverpool he still couldn't speak English and that certainly hindered him a little from adapting to his colleagues.

Klopp era at Liverpool has officially ended this season, Klopp left a glory that will indeed be very difficult to match by other coaches who will coach Liverpool, Klopp this season has announced his retirement as Liverpool coach after 9 years with the Reds, but unfortunately Klopp farewell this season did not go well enough because Liverpool failed to get a trophy this season,  Klopp's ability of course we cannot doubt, so far Klopp has been able to bring Liverpool back to rise and succeed not only in the Premier League but even they have been able to compete as challengers for the Champions League title so far, Klopp managed to get the Champions League trophy for Liverpool in the 2019 season as well as the Champions League trophy after the last time he got it in the 2005 season.


Currently, of course, Liverpool will enter a new era with coach Arne Slot, Liverpool fans of course expect a lot from Arne Slot next season to be able to continue the positive trend that has been built by Klopp, but the coach transition of course takes a lot of time and patience before Arne Slot is able to lift Liverpool performance, Arne Slot of course has a different scheme and philosophy in coaching so I think the adjustments will be made to the squad later will take time.

Bayern Munich management will not allow what happened to them last season to repeat itself shortly, so they will sign players that will help them get back to their glory days. So I agree with you that Bayern Munich will be a serious contender to win the UEFA Champions League trophy when it starts next season. It is a pity that Harry Kane joined Bayern Munich at a bad time. Harry Kane put in his best and scored goals for Bayern Munich to win a trophy last season, but Bayern Munich's team spirit was low, which made them not win any trophy last season.

Let's wait for Slot's first year at Liverpool to see if he can defend his place at the top of the EPL. Liverpool will be forced to finish at least in the top 4 in order to defend its UCL spot upcoming season. He deserved to be fired if liverpool will not able to fulfill that condition next season. BTW, this is not a simple job for Slot, given that Liverpool is currently having a very competitive season against arsenal and manchester city. It will be a difficult task for him to make Liverpool as competitive as it was when Klopp was there. It's caused by slot never faces manchester city or arsenal before.

People can have high hopes for him, but in my opinion, Arne Slot is a trash coach. Let us wait and see what he has in store for the forthcoming season. I value him at the same level as Maresca. Maresca has previously coached the England squad.
Meanwhile, Arne Slot was not previously coaching England's team.

It means he has no experience to deal with EPL. This is gonna be his first time. Let's see whether he will be doing well.

Each coach has a different strategy in building the performance of the club under his care. Arne Slot and Jurgen Kloop have different strategy patterns and are not the same so we cannot compare Arne Slot being able to do what Jurgen Kloop does because Jurgen Kloop used to need several seasons to improve his performance. Liverpool gradually and he also did not immediately provide good performance for Liverpool so Liverpool management already understands the stages of their journey with Jurgen Kloop and will likely do the same to Arne Slot by giving him lots of time, so that Arne Sloot doesn't need to feel pressured by the results that must be instant in his first season.

I also don't know what Arne Slot's coaching system is like because this coach is rarely mentioned in various media and it seems like he doesn't have much experience in various clubs in famous leagues and this is his first season coaching a big club in the Premier League Liverpool and he has to showed his skills even though he doesn't have much experience, but previously he coached Feyenoord and got pretty good results. Hopefully he can also give good results to Liverpool next season.

Three main potential big changes for UEFA, clubs and players in my thinking.

UEFA will get richer with more matches, more income from UEFA Champions League and from television rights.

Biggest and richest clubs will become bigger and richer by money from television rights and their performances in next seasons. Perform better, go far each season will help biggest and richest clubs gain more income.

Players will have to play more matches that will cause bigger risk of exhaustion and injuries. These problems will cause bigger effects on national teams and star players will struggle to be healthy, perform well in big tournaments like World Cup, Euro and Coppa America.

Indeed, if you look at it, it looks like Liverpool will have difficulty competing in the upcoming UCL (2024-2025) because looking at Liverpool's performance in the EPL which is nearing the end of the season, their performance is not good. and indeed Klopp's departure from Liverpool will definitely make Liverpool players have to adapt again to their new coach. namely Arne Slot and yes, if for example Salah left Liverpool it would most likely make Liverpool confused because in my opinion M. Salah is a player that Liverpool needs because of his good performance.

but of course I personally see Liverpool making progress because they got a ticket to the 2024-2025 UCL. Of course the supporters will also be happy because when compared to the Champions League 2023-2024 season, of course Liverpool did not participate because they failed to finish in 4th place in the EPL, but Liverpool in the 2023-2024 season is experiencing progress. because he finished in 4th place in the EPL which earned him a ticket to the UCL for the 2024-2025 season, but yes, hopefully Arne Slot can make Liverpool a good even with the existing players.

but of course in the UCL the competition is certainly very exciting but of course it doesn't rule out the possibility that Liverpool will perform well in the UCL 2024-2025 season because sometimes match results are always difficult to predict.

Jurgen Klopp have served the Reds and also making good style and records with them, he did his best for Liverpool, atleast we've watched him lifting major trophies with Liverpool and also helping them becoming one of the top fierce EPL elite team in the world of European football.

Liverpool new coach, Arne Slot will be one of the promising coach for Liverpool but all he needs is patience because he's new to Liverpool system and the new coach have his own style to implement. The momentum of Liverpool will balance, it's all just a matter of time.

Even Perez has guaranteed Real Madrid fans that he will return with the next UCL trophy after madrid owned the current season of UCL. Mbappe has become Real Madrid's main weapon for the upcoming season in order to defend the UCL for so many seasons. I am convinced Madrid will win the competitions again shortly considering how strong the club is right now and having mbappe is a key to defend real madrid's trophy. No doubt about it, given Real Madrid's current level of competence is higher than any clubs in UCL. The club is still performing admirably at the present.

I'm glad to see that Mbappe chose Real Madrid as his destination and is now in the correct position. I'm just hoping that Mbappe can have extremely excellent chemistry. It will be incredible to see Mbappe scoring a lot of goals next season. Still hoping that mbappe would not be another flop.
He deserves to play for the best team in the world, like Real Madrid. As a club that has won the UCL three times in a row, we will not doubt Real Madrid's ability to defend the trophy. I'm confident that Madrid will win UCL next season.
Mbappe was the top scorer in the French league. Let's see how he does in La Liga and UCL with his new squad soon.

This could be Arne Slot’s first year coaching Liverpool but that doesn't mean he can’t make them to go so far in the champions league or make them stand separate from other teams in terms of performance and quality. I know that we shouldn’t be expecting that much from him and at the same time, we should also give him some sense of hope to make the team better in his first year. Xabi Alonso did that in the Bundesliga with Bayern Leverkusen and it worked out for them well. We are not expecting much from him but if he does, that shows he’s the right choice for the club and will take the club so far in the premier league title and also other competitions they’ll be participating in next season.

UCL favourite that ihave come across in recent time don't have Liverpool amongst to four teams and it's very obvious and clear that it's due to the fact that they are no longer having klop as their head coach as they had before now, I believe that Liverpool will still get back to their form since they still have . most of their players staying back but then it will only take them some time to get that done.

By this it becomes very clear how much a coach can mean to a team, klop meant a whole it to Liverpool just like guardiola and Areteta mean to Manchester city and Arsenal, another have to be Leverkusen, if they have xabi moving to another team, they are obviously going to have some challenges in the team but then they will try to see how well they can cope with their new coach actually. The UCL has always been very popular because of the level of competition it's been known for over the years but then Liverpool will try their best and I believe their new coach will be able to build on the legacies of their former Coach.

In the champions league they may not come out the best or even appear like one of the best but they still can get to the point where they will be able to still contend well enough amongst their equals in the champions league as at this point they can't be considered a mediocre or an underdog just yet,. Liverpool still have that chance if only they are able to quickly cope and get used to their new coach both in his style, strategy and tactics.

Of course, it is unpredictable because there are many other stronger teams. However, it is a football match, a surprise will be always possible even if it is in UCL. Besides Real Madrid, everyone expects Man City, PSG, Inter, Bayern, or Arsenal to play in the final. But in reality, Dortmund is the team that can reach the final and play against Real Madrid. However, I think it won't be easy for Dortmund to reach the final again in the next season. There will be more teams in UCL and other teams look stronger.

Indeed. Mbappe is the ideal striker for Real Madrid. He is expected to replace the role of Benzema who has moved to Al Ittihad. After too many drama, finally Real Madrid can sign Mbappe for 5 years. No doubt Real Madrid will play more confident in the next season because they have a new machine goal now. Personally, I will favor Real Madrid to win the UCL trophy again.  

We will see interesting matches in group phase. There will be more matches, so every team will be busy. Honestly, this will force more the players to keep their fitness. With more matches, the chance of getting injured will be higher. It is expected that the coach can rotate the players more often. The new format makes the coaches of the teams to optimize their second tier players, too.

Your opinion about the new coach and players at the club, I share your views about them. They have just welcomed this new coach to the club, which means they need time to adapt, let's give them a season or two before passing judgment completely. I have heard positive things about his coaching abilities.

There is no question about Mo Salah; I would even call him a Liverpool legend when compared to various other players who have worn the club's uniform. The numbers support this claim, feel free to verify it for your own assurance.

And it's true with what you said that Nunez isn't that bad either. He just needed to find his calm and dedicate himself completely. Ronaldo rates him as a player, so he must be promising. If Nunez applies himself with intelligence and perseverance, there is no reason why he cannot carve his own path to success like other great players at Liverpool.

To be honest, I didn't know Arne Slot before. But that's not a problem in my opinion because I personally don't know many coaches apart from a few names that often appear in the sports media. But we can't expect Klopp to gain momentum. Liverpool have changed to a new coach and I think it will take some time before they get momentum back. I doubt Liverpool will be one of the favorites in the UCL next season. I didn't expect much from the first season with Arne Slot. It's not easy to regain momentum in your first year.

They've literally just had this coach and manager come into the club, we'll have to give him like a season or two to settle down completely. I've read how he is a good coach.
No news has been said about Mo Salah, I will even consider him a Liverpool legend over most of these players who must have played for th club.
The statistics are their you can check them out if they're wrong or correctly said.

Nunez is not that bad, he just needs to calm down, this is a player Ronaldo rates. He will have to be hardworking and smart so he can be ahead and catch up with the likes of those that has successfully played for the club and for the Liverpool badge.

The Champions League Competition would be difficult to predict honestly. Let's take it one-step at a time.

While it lasted, Liverpool were undoubtedly one of the best clubs in not just England but in the whole Europe but in the last two seasons, they've actually noy been the Liverpool we used to know between 2018/19 to 2021/22 seasons. Some of the big players who were the reason behind their success of those years left the club and the ones who were still with them stopped performing at the top of their strength. Jurgen Klopp announced he was gonna leave the club at the end of last season of which he did and the club went on to announce another new manager who'll take over from him.
Arne Slot who's the new manager of Liverpool have a lot of work to do if he truly wants to return them to where they belong. Mohammed Salah who's undoubtedly been the club's best player in the last decade isn't performing at the top of his strength again probably because of age. I think the club really needs to sign a lot of players in the summer in order to become competitive for next season.

Adding to what has been responded to you, which day status of Liverpool for the past few seasons, I no longer see them as serious contenders for the Champions League. The lost their ability to contest effectively in the Champions League when they lost Sadio mané. We must come today realization or understanding that there are many other good teams better than Liverpool. For instance, Dortmund and Leverkusen are to me better than the Liverpool of today.

As Doomloop observed, Liverpool just changed their coach, you don't expect them to continue with the momentum of Klopp. It is possible that the momentum could and if care not taken, drop low before they could rise again.
