Liverpool’s recent run of results has been met with a newly shared statistic that adds an uncomfortable layer to the wider conversation around Arne Slot.
Roy Hodgson’s spell as Liverpool manager never really clicked. He followed Rafa Benitez, a hugely successful figure at Anfield, but the squad he inherited was clearly past its peak by then.
Liverpool are in the midst of a new era under Arne Slot and it’s safe to say that he’s taken to the club like a duck to water, unlike what Roy Hodgson did.

Roy Hodgson parted company with Crystal Palace on Monday. Hodgson became the oldest manager in Premier League history in March 2023 when he came out of retirement at the age of 75 years and 224 days for a second spell in the Selhurst Park dugout.
Crystal Palace manager Roy Hodgson underwent tests in hospital on Thursday evening after being "taken ill" during a training session in the morning.

Crystal Palace are poised to end Roy Hodgson’s second stint as their head coach following the Eagles’ poor run of form. Whether Hodgson leaves before Monday’s
