Read our Privacy PolicyHere's a round-up of the latest Anfield headlines as we approach the final weekend of the Premier League season...Liverpool must part ways with Slot at the end of the season, according to former Reds winger Jermaine Pennant.Last week's 4-2 defeat to Aston Villa means the Reds have lost 20 games across all competitions this season and Pennant believes a change is urgently required.He said: "If the board thinks that this is the guy to stay in charge, then something's wrong with the board."Everyone can see this Liverpool team, see that they broke almost every single record which is not good - the most goals conceded, the most losses ever in a campaign, you name it. The stats are shocking."Pennant went as far as to back Salah, who took aim at Liverpool's recent shortcomings in a social media post last weekend.The former Arsenal star also argued that Liverpool cannot justify yet another summer of extravagant expenditure under the Dutchman."What he's saying [Salah] is stating the obvious.
