Another day, another inconsistent performance from Liverpool that ultimately ended in defeat.Fan ire towards Arne Slot is not going away and was on full display in the defeat to Manchester United.Yes, Liverpool looked better at times in the second half, but they were ultimately gifted two goals by some awful defensive play and still ended up losing the fixture.They have now suffered 11 Premier League defeats this season, their highest total since before Jurgen Klopp took over.Arne Slot has suffered most Premier League defeats since Brendan RodgersAfter losing to Man Utd, we have taken a look back at the last time Liverpool suffered 11 defeats in the Premier League in one campaign.It did not happen once under Klopp, with his most defeats (nine) coming in 2022/23 when the Reds finished fifth.Instead, the last time the Merseyside outfit suffered more than 10 defeats under a single manager was back in 2014/15 when Brendan Rodgers was at the helm.With three games of 2025/26 still to go, Slot could match and maybe even surpass that total.And in the worst-case scenario, Liverpool lose to Chelsea, Aston Villa and Brentford, taking the number of defeats up to 14, which they have not suffered in the Premier League since 2011/12.Despite this unwanted record, FSG plan to stick with Slot going into 2026/27, repeating the same mistake they made over a decade ago.Liverpool have not learned from Brendan Rodgers mistakeKlopp arrived at Anfield in early 2015/16 after Rodgers was relieved of his duties.Right now, it feels like Slot’s career at Liverpool is very much going down the same path as the Northern Irishman.He had one good season, which saw the Reds come close to winning their first Premier League title, but things really took a turn in 2014/15.However, despite the issues, Liverpool stuck with their manager before ultimately having to sack him early in 2015/16.
