He changed the style this season because we were hemorrhaging goals.

I think Alonso is attractive to a lot of people because he's attractive and because of his ties to Liverpool. But I am skeptical. He had a great season in a league that's clearly a step down from the EPL, and he fell on his face in his first chance to run a big club. Now, Liverpool isn't Madrid. But Slot is far more proven in his accomplishments. I don't trust the shiny new object.

Given all the difficulties of this season—Salah's cataclysmic drop in form, massive turnover, injuries, Jota's death, and just plain bad luck—I think it would be an injustice not to let an EPL-winning manager have one more chance the fix the problems.
