It seems like (Arne) Slot will stay at Liverpool, so Chelsea might see an opening here with Alonso.\u201d<\/p>\n Unsurprisingly, supporters on X are not particularly happy, with some slamming the Reds for keeping Slot, while others don\u2019t believe Alonso would take the position at Stamford Bridge anyway:<\/p>\n Total negligence if we sit back and watch Alonso go to Chelsea or City & let that Slot continue to lower standards at the club<\/p>\n \u2014 Shamrock Red (@Shamrock_Gael) April 28, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Chelsea wants a yes man.
