“‘Oh no!’: Liverpool coach stunned by Arne Slot’s training ground moment this afternoon”

Aaron Briggs could hardly believe his eyes as Arne Slot emerged as the only member of Liverpool’s coaching staff to beat the crossbar challenge.

Several of the Reds’ backroom team took part in the light-hearted wager ahead of a training session, with the reigning Premier League champions preparing to face Tottenham in London on Saturday night.

The club’s set-piece coach was seen crying out “Oh, no!” and turning away as Slot’s floated effort struck the bar.

“I like the cameraman behind,” the Dutch head coach remarked before strolling off.

A welcome bit of levity during a difficult spell for Liverpool

Moments like this matter when Liverpool appear to be navigating choppy waters.

Things threatened to grow even more tense after Mohamed Salah stirred debate with his candid recent comments to the media.

Yet the response since then suggests this squad has firmly rallied around the manager and remains committed to restoring the high standards once taken for granted.

Back-to-back victories over Inter Milan and Brighton & Hove Albion mark clear progress, but the challenge now is sustaining that intensity and resilience as the new year approaches.

Liverpool must show this is not just another false dawn—another tease before inconsistency and underwhelming performances return to frustrate supporters.

Fans want substance, not fragile optimism, as the club moves toward 2026.
