Jamie Carragher has delivered a strong message to Liverpool’s manager, Arne Slot, urging him to move beyond the “old Liverpool mentality” and start thinking like Real Madrid.
According to Carragher, Liverpool’s current struggles stem from a lack of killer instinct — something that separates good teams from great ones. He believes that while Slot has implemented attractive football and tactical discipline, the team is missing the ruthless winning mentality that defined Klopp’s best years.
“Real Madrid don’t just play well; they win, no matter the circumstances,” Carragher said. “That’s the mindset Liverpool need now — not just passion and pressing, but the cold, clinical mentality that wins titles.”
With recent defeats raising concerns among fans, Carragher’s comments come as both a warning and a challenge. Slot, he insists, must build a team that not only entertains but also dominates with consistency — even when performances aren’t perfect.
Liverpool’s identity may be evolving under Slot, but Carragher’s message is clear: to return to the top, they must start thinking — and playing — like Real Madrid.
