Former Liverpool defender Stephen Warnock does not believe Arne Slot will be the club's manager next season.
The defending champions are fifth in the Premier League table – and in danger of not qualifying for next season's Champions League.
"No I don't," Warnock told BBC Radio 5 Live Breakfast when asked if he thought Slot would start the 2026-27 campaign in charge.
"It's a big ask for them to get a Champions League place. It's going to be very difficult. They're so inconsistent that I don't see them winning every game until the end of the season. It's going to be very difficult for him to stay in charge.
"They're nowhere near where they'd like to be. It's not gone to plan at all."
When asked if he would want former Reds midfielder Xabi Alonso to replace Slot, Warnock said: "I'm not too sure whether that's the right decision – that's more of a nostalgia thing where people want that romance.
"At Real Madrid the football wasn’t fantastic, but he had a very difficult changing room and tried to change the culture.”
Warnock will be the BBC Radio 5 Live co-commentator for Tuesday's match between Wolvesand Liverpool (20:15 GMT).
