You never like to see that, but it comes from not having the season they hoped for, and after spending a lot of money."Liverpool fans are left once again wondering about what is next for Slot, and whether the manager can recover from such a clear rebellion from the stands.Arne Slot is under fire from Liverpool fans once again after the draw with Chelsea(Image: (Photo by Gareth Copley/Getty Images))With two games left of the Premier League season, the first job will be to gain Champions League qualification, which is all-but complete with just three points separating the side from confirming a place in next season's top European competition.Once that is ideally complete, Slot will be hoping for the season to end without any drama, which he can use to address key areas of the squad in the transfer market and gain favour with the fans again once the campaign is out of their minds."I would love to show them something else, but at this moment of time we're not [often] enough able to," the head coach said on the fans and performances this season."What we are able to [do] is to be the dominant team, to have more than the other team the ball, as has happened so many times this season.

But as I said many times now, ball possession is one thing, but to generate chances of that… second half last week, everybody was probably really positive about our second half, but from open play we did not create one chance. And then we scored two goals and then everybody is much more positive."But we had 60 per cent ball possession at Old Trafford, which apart from [Manchester] City, who has a bit more ball possession than us, it's us."But it's not my idea to like ball possession.

I like to create chances, I like to create and score goals. And I know what we need to get that done, and I think this club, last season and all the seasons before, can show all of you what you need to bring ball possession to chances, because that has happened so many times here, what you need for that.
