Watch: What Liverpool fans were seen doing after the FA Cup defeat as clear message to owners sent

The atmosphere at Liverpool has reached a toxic breaking point following a humiliating 4-0 FA Cup quarter-final defeat to Manchester City, with footage now going viral showing traveling supporters singing the famous Xabi Alonso chant as they streamed out of the Etihad Stadium.

The defeat, which marked a staggering 15th loss of the season for manager Arne Slot, appears to have been the final straw for a fanbase that has grown increasingly disillusioned since the turn of the year.

Liverpool supporters send the club hierarchy a clear message

As the goals flew in from a rampant City side, the away end began to empty well before the final whistle.

Footage shows the travelling fans leaving the stadium, as they sent an indirect message to the Liverpool hierarchy, singing the famous Xabi Alonso chant in full voice.

Alonso has been strongly linked with a dream return to Anfield after his success with Bayer Leverkusen.

With Liverpool’s title defence in tatters and chances of a domestic trophy now gone, the fans are no longer hiding their discontent.

The vocal support for Alonso, coupled with fans calling for the dismissal of Slot, suggests that the grace period afforded to Slot following last season’s Premier League success has officially expired.

A deep disconnect between club and fans

The scenes at the Etihad highlight a worrying disconnect that is beginning to tear at the fabric of the club.

Beyond the result, the behavior of the players and the reaction of the supporters signal a growing internal crisis.

Szoboszlai altercation: At full-time, Dominik Szoboszlai was involved in a heated standoff with fans.  The midfielder appeared to shrug his shoulders and wave his arms dismissively toward the away, requiring teammate Federico Chiesa to physically lead him away.

Early exits: Many fans opted to leave with 20 minutes remaining, an almost unheard-of sight for a club defined by its “Never Walk Alone” values.

Managerial uncertainty: With a crucial Champions League clash against PSG looming on Wednesday, Slot is facing a mutiny.

The lack of fight shown against City has led many to believe the players have stopped playing for the manager.

For Liverpool, the “defining month” of April has started in catastrophic fashion. If the board does not act soon to bridge the gap between the dugout and the Kop, the final weeks of the season could witness an unprecedented collapse.
