Whats he actually said is airing dirty washing.
I think you’re letting him off lightly. His form has been more than lacking, it’s been diabolical.
Last season he was generally good but nowhere near world class.
I do wonder, with actually reading what he said, that there is no intended malice and he was just replying to questions.

This is always the problem, ‘what was the question?’

To be honest, when it comes to Argentinian players playing at the highest level, I always expect them to play well in the season preceding World Cup in order to give themselves the best chance of being selected.
Mac Allister’s drop off in form this season has been one of the steepest I’ve seen in a Liverpool player, though, comparable to Fabinho or Henderson. I thought it was a long-term issue with his injury but apparently he’s been over it for quite a while. After looking undroppable last year, he knows looks like he might be the first candidate to be sold to fund the purchase of a more dynamic midfielder, whoever that might be. After all, you hear about contract negotiations with Gravenberch and Szoboszlai but Mac Allister’s new contract is never mentioned.
And here you are like clockwork trying to start a fight because I’ve had the temerity to post an opinion.
Why don’t you go away and stop hassling me every time I post anything.
I don’t think he did anything wrong. Players get asked questions and he really didn’t say too much beyond what he should have or the obvious - that the team were not too happy about where they are and the change has been too drastic.
What I found odd, was that on numerous reports of the interview most left out what I thought was a very important part (possibly to give a different feel).
This quote:
“Personally, without the team I am nothing and I feel like we all need to get better and think about the guy next to me, become a better team and that will help us and raise our level."

He’s 100% right about this. And it shouldn’t be read as a charge against Slot. It’s merely the truth, and I think everyone at the club, from fsg til the tea lady’s dog knows this by now.
We changed a lot? Yes, we did.
A few of the players who have left have been possibly his closest mates here. It’s also possible that he felt some of them weren’t good enough to be here long term.
The rest he prefers to keep for himself and not say publicly? That’s fine, even better.
I bet he’s not the only player who had or still has question marks over all the moves we’ve made recently.

“This should be a moment when we are enjoying the Premier League which we won and we should be in a much better place than we are,”
This actually hurts. When was the last time we heard ‘Champions’ ringing out from the stands ?

I don’t know who he is aiming that at, but if it isn’t squarely at himself he can fuck off.
Most players have dropped their level, but his has been bigger than anyone’s. I can’t believe it’s the same player I was worried about Real Madrid taking.
