Liverpool manager Arne Slot says he feels “complete support” from the club's ownership even though his team is on a three-game losing streak and facing a trophyless season. Liverpool's midweek 2-0 loss to Paris Saint-Germain in the first leg of the Champions League quarterfinals followed a 4-0 defeat to Manchester City in the FA Cup last eight and a 2-1 loss at Brighton in the Premier League. The season had started with high hopes after the club’s record summer spending of $570 million on new players following a Premier League title in Slot's first campaign.

Amid a challenging run of form, Liverpool manager Arne Slot has publicly affirmed his belief in the backing he receives from the club's hierarchy. Despite a three-game losing streak that has left the Reds facing a potential trophyless season, Slot expressed feeling "complete support" from the owners and the fanbase.

The recent setbacks have been significant. A 2-0 Champions League quarterfinal first-leg defeat to Paris Saint-Germain was preceded by a heavy 4-0 FA Cup loss to Manchester City and a 2-1 Premier League stumble at Brighton. This dip comes after a summer of record investment and a title-winning debut campaign for Slot, raising the stakes at Anfield.

Currently fifth in the Premier League and battling for Champions League qualification, Liverpool's immediate focus shifts to hosting Fulham this weekend. Slot highlighted the unwavering support from the traveling fans in Paris, even in defeat, as a key source of motivation for his squad during this period.

In other news, Slot took a moment to praise the departing Andy Robertson, whose exit at season's end was confirmed Thursday. The manager lauded the veteran left-back's trademark "intensity," a quality he noted was sorely missed against PSG. Slot acknowledged Robertson's reduced role this season, suggesting the desire for regular first-team football was a likely factor in the defender's decision to move on.
