I've no expectations on next year really, but I'll be backing the new gaffer 100% wherever we end up. We've got a great squad think we need a few in few out [in particular a DM] but I think we could end up anywhere from 8th to top 3. I will say that doing alright in the first 4/5 games really does feel important. Everyone - fans and players alike - will relax a bit then as expecting a bit of a shock to the system initially.

Potentially as low as 8th would suggest Chelsea/ Utd levels of implosion.  I just can't see anything that bad.

I don't see any reason why we can't maintain our place in the top 4 minimum.

Realistically no expectations other than top 4 finish and knockout stages of CL

Comfortably 3rd. Hopefully a deep run in the CL.

This time last year I said comfortable top 3 alongside City and Arsenal and a trophy. Both came true even though I suspected we'd win the Europa League and not the League Cup. Decent season even though it ended up being a bit of a let down at the climax.

Next season should be the same IMO. You can't outright just expect a title with City and even Arsenal around now. I've never liked the idea of looking at just qualifying for the Champions League as success but I suppose it must be done. In the same manner though, anything less than being comfortably among the top 3 again is underwhelming and disappointing as far as the league goes. We can't erode standards under any manager post Klopp even if they'll never be the same man.

A trophy to start Slot's time here would be lovely, most likely to be the FA Cup or League Cup. Once again we should have the squad to compete deep into four competitions. We could have competed in the Champions League this season and should be able to do so next season with more quality additions to the side. Klopp started out in Europe with a few famous European nights at Anfield but in the last couple of years we didn't get any unfortunately, that would be a nice start under Slot.

To be honest this is total guesswork now, we have a new manager in post in 5 weeks time and we do not know which players are not staying (or who is coming in), I'm saving any predictions for July because I might as well say we'll win everything just to be bold. What I will say is that to win anything 90 points is needed and someone is also needed to dump City out of any cups.

5th place, but that's enough for CL qualification
We finish between 9th and 24th in the new CL table, go into the playoffs and win, but go out in the round of 16
4th round of the FA Cup
Quarterfinals of the League Cup

Bit of a meh season all round as we bed in a new manager and new signings

Very bold.

If anyone can project or wants to project that far forward is a weirdo.

Your bold predictions for Liverpool, bud. Not that of your archrival, United.

I predict we'll have a honeymoon period and win our first four or five matches, then have a shaky couple of months before finishing out the season looking like things are on the up. I think we'll finish 4th.

Exactly. Lets take it all game by game.
We'll soon know after each result whether incremental adjustments are needed, or we were unlucky or we were amazing.
In other words, lets just watch the footy and let the season unfold.

I can't help getting carried away - Kloppo left a great squad, we've wonderful players both established and coming through, Slot seems to tick most/all of the boxes and comes across well as a person, can't wait to see his first presser and our first games. I'm excited for the new season, which I didn't think I'd be once Klopp left.

In a few weeks I'll definitely be in the excited category mate. Particularly when there's been some player turnover, ins & outs, I'll be bursting for the season to start.
