That's why I think it's a bit of a it's a real mix in terms of the feelings going into the season.
You know, you look at defensively, you know, they are still short at the moment with Gomez injured, Leone's still out, Bradley's still out.
Um, you know, it's not ideal the fact that Jacques and Arauho have both only played forty five minutes in preseason, and you'd have thought one of them's gonna have to partner Van Dyke at St James's Park on on Sunday.
So yeah, at the minute it feels like Iriola doesn't have all the tools he needs to do the job to the best of his ability.
The hope for Liverpool fans is the fact that the club put that right between now and the end of the window.
Jack, do you
Yeah, I think you're right.
The timing was certainly a shock in terms of, obviously they allowed the dust to settle a week after the end of the season.
It was certainly a shock to Slott himself.
I know from speaking to people close to him over the weekend, he didn't see it coming.
He thought he would be given the chance to put right on.
what had gone so wrong over the course of the season.
He'd even lined up Etienne Reynon to join the club from Feyenoord as a new assistant manager.
And I think it was only really probably the middle to latter part of next week when certainly it became clear that Liverpool weren't
in any rush to kind of ratify that appointment and that contract hadn't been signed that you started to think well actually yeah there may well be something going on here and then you know ultimately that has led to Michael Edwards and Richard Hughes pulling the plug on
On Saturday morning.
So, yeah, ultimately, I think, you know, he has paid the price for the fortunes absolutely nosediving over the last 12 months from the higher winning the Premier League title to finishing fifth with just 60 points.
And yes, he salvaged Champions League qualification.
But, you know, unfortunately, it was pretty torrid during the run in, not just in terms of results, but probably more importantly for him in terms of his future performances.
Yeah, I think the first thing to say is a senior figure that I spoke to said this was a decision we really didn't want to make.
