Liverpool’s early season positivity has them sitting atop the table.
Having navigated the emotional turbulence of losing Jurgen Klopp in the summer, the Reds have responded with impressive performances.
With the final international break of 2024 underway, Liverpool comfortably leads all contenders. Arne Slot’s influence is evident as they aim for a remarkable campaign.
However, not everyone seems content with the direction things are taking under Slot at Anfield. Federico Chiesa, despite featuring rarely so far, is reportedly growing discontent.

What is wrong with Federico Chiesa?
Slot has generally chosen to remain tight-lipped about the nature of player injuries. While this approach respects players’ privacy, it leaves fans with limited insight into their situations.
| Game | Minutes | Goals | Assists |
|——————-|———|——–|———|
| vs AC Milan (17/09/24) | 1 | – | – |
| vs Bournemouth (21/09/24)| 18 | - | – |
| vs West Ham (25/09/24)| 59 | 1 | – |
Some supporters speculate that Chiesa’s absence isn’t due to injury but rather a strategic decision by Slot to bring him up to speed behind the scenes after missing pre-season. If true, it would be understandable why Chiesa wouldn’t be dismayed. He’d likely see a significant role upon his return.
Alisson Becker described Chiesa as “wonderful” after observing him in training. While fans haven’t witnessed much of that potential yet, there’s no need for panic.
