Slot has begun his tenure as Liverpool manager with a positive result, securing a 2-0 victory over Ipswich Town at Portman Road in their opening Premier League match.
Nonetheless, Keys remains skeptical about Slot and whether his style aligns with Liverpool’s traditional approach and the type of football their supporters expect week after week.
Keys is confident that the fans will initially support Slot if he continues to secure victories, but he anticipates that doubts about the Dutch manager will emerge around October and November.
The experienced broadcaster doubts that Slot’s footballing approach will appeal to Liverpool supporters, given the club’s historical preferences. Keys commented on beIN SPORT: “I believe Slot will manage to keep the fans’ support if he is winning games, but concerns will start to surface by October or November when the team may face losses.
“Liverpool supporters prefer a more dynamic style of play, which Slot’s approach may not provide.”
Slot will be hoping that continued positive results on the field will help him win over the fans in the upcoming weeks and months.
