Arne Slot ‘must start’ Harvey Elliott after Liverpool exit reports at Anfield – ‘Diabolical’
Liverpool fans are demanding change from Arne Slot after a rocky few weeks at Anfield.
The Dutchman has impressed during his first season, but after a series of poor results, there have been some doubts cast in the minds of supporters about him.
The Reds are set to cruise their way to the Premier League title this season, and the 11-point gap they have over Arsenal could lead to some underutilised members of the squad getting further opportunities.
Harvey Elliott is someone that fans believe is worthy of a more significant run in the team, which might be the only way to keep him around in the long term.
Elliott could leave Liverpool in the summer
Liverpool have been focused on the futures of Virgil Van Dijk, Trent Alexander-Arnold, and Mohamed Salah due to them being out of contract, but they’re not the only players who might be leaving.
The future of Elliott is also up in the air as he has struggled to gain consistent game time under Slot and is now being seen as a sellable asset within the squad.

Xabi Alonso and Bayer Leverkusen are keeping tabs on Elliott’s situation at Anfield, with the former Liverpool midfielder impressed by the England Under-21 international.
Liverpool have set a £45million price tag on Elliott’s head and are willing to consider bids in that price range for him in the upcoming summer transfer window.
Liverpool fans believe in Elliott
Even though the Premier League giants seem to be open to receiving offers for the midfield playmaker in the summer, supporters are less keen on the decision.
Fans want to see the homegrown star given further opportunities in the first team as they feel he makes something happen whenever he features.
They have now urged Slot to consider giving Elliott more of an opportunity, which might just lead to him playing his way into the starting lineup.
Whether Slot will change his beloved midfield three of Ryan Gravenberch, Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai is unknown, but it could be time.
Elliott is raring to go, and unleashing him now when the pressure is low could be perfect.
