Liverpool won't have Klopp next season. I think they will have a worse season. No doubt, Arne Slot had successful seasons at Feyenord. But I think he might struggle a bit in his first season at Liverpool in the Premier League because Klopp had a huge influence on Liverpool. That's why I think Arsenal will be the only opponent for Manchester City next season. Of course, I would like Liverpool to be champions next season, but even Klopp couldn't do it. I don't think Arne Slot can do it in his first season.
It was difficult to gain momentum in Arne Slot's first year. Even though he has been successful with Feyenoord, the EPL is much more competitive. Arne Slot will take some time to create a good strategy and know the potential of each player well. I still believe Liverpool will be able to get a top 3 or top 5 ranking next season but I doubt whether they will be able to win the EPL title. City and Arsenal will again be champion candidates, but I hope Liverpool's performance can be quite good in Arne Slot's first season.
Arne Slot is taking over a Liverpool side that's lost their burning desire to win trophies and for him to be successful at the club, he must give the club players reassuring words that'll build their confidence again in other to make them competitive in the English Premier League, the UEFA Champions League league as well as any other competition. I know it'll be difficult for the Dutch manager to achieve instant success at his new club but I also think it'll not be good to totally write him off. Liverpool is a big club which is why I think the club management will make vital signings to the club during the summer transfer window in order to strengthen the team ahead of next season.
It's a very big challenge for Arne Slot to help Liverpool regain their position and place as one of the best teams in England but I totally believe that it's very achievable for him to build the team and make them more competitive than they've been in recent years.
The vacuum that Klopp has left the club will be so hard to fill.He single handedly brought Liverpool from where they were,to give them premier league tittle,and Champions league tittle,and also made Liverpool a respectable and fearful team again.The club lost it former glory some years back before Klopp came,but he came and started everything afresh,proved to the world how good he is,and started winning games back to back to ensure that Liverpool get to where they were supposed to be.
Now he has left,I believe this new coach will take time to familiarise with the players,but gradually,he will get to know them well,and how he can manage them.
