Not only from the owners but from Richard and Michael \u2026 But as weird as it might sound, I also feel the support from the fans,\u201d Slot told reporters.<\/p>\n \u201cWe were going out in Paris when the players went out for the warm-up, and after the 4-0 loss [against City] the fans immediately started singing, \u2018We love Liverpool\u2019.<\/p>\n \u201cI think it\u2019s fair to say we were outplayed for 90 minutes, and they were still singing and clapping for us. I\u2019ve said many times, the club knows the period of time we\u2019re in, and in \u2060the meantime I feel complete support.\u201d<\/p>\n Meanwhile, a group of fans \u2060are planning protests against the owners at Anfield due to the proposed hikes in ticket prices.<\/p>\n In 2016, about 10,000 supporters headed for the exits during a Premier League game in protest against a proposal to increase ticket prices significantly, after which the American owners bowed to pressure and \u2060backed down.<\/p>\n But Slot hopes Anfield\u2019s famous atmosphere will not be affected.<\/p>\n \u201cNot only when we go through tough times, but I think Anfield has shown in history and since I\u2019m \u2060here how important these fans are for us, especially when we play \u2060a home game,\u201d Slot said.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019ve always felt support in good and bad times. I hope even in protest that they can be as helpful as they have always been for us.\u201d<\/p>\n Slot also praised Andy Robertson after Liverpool announced on Thursday that the veteran defender would be leaving Anfield after a nine-year spell.<\/p>\n The Scotland captain, out of contract at the end of the season, has dropped down the pecking order since the arrival of left-back Milos Kerkez.<\/p>\n \u201cHe had many great seasons here as a player, but I think people got to know him as a great person as well,\u201d said Slot. \u201cI got to know him as a great person.\u201d<\/p>\n Slot suggested the decision from the 32-year-old was due to limited first-team opportunities.<\/p>\n \u201cServed this club for so many years, really loves this club,\u201d he said. \u201cSo it\u2019s been a great nine years for him at the club.<\/p>\n \u201cBut we saw also that this season he didn\u2019t play as much as he was used to. Still a lot, but not as much as he was used to.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Slot says he feels \u2018complete support\u2019 despite mounting pressure after a disastrous season.
