Could Eddie Howe ever be Liverpool manager? Perhaps the moment has passed forever, and this job is now Arne Slot’s for the life cycle of this current team and beyond.

So much would have to change, so much would need to align. But of all the many things that may never happen in football, you might consider this one the likeliest of all the unlikely.
