Eight wins in 10 matches in the Premier League, four out of four in the Champions League, two triumphs in the English League Cup - Arne Slott's start on the Liverpool bench could hardly have been better.
The public was skeptical when the Dutchman succeeded Jurgen Klopp, but Slott shows that he met the biggest challenge of his career ready...
"Am I surprised by the results? I can't use that word, because I am aware of the quality of the team I lead," said Slot.
"But quality is one thing, and consistency is something completely different. I'm not surprised because I could see the energy of my players every day. We played a good number of games and deservedly won, there were also those that were very close," says Slott, whose team won 14 out of 16 matches this season.
The next challenge for the Reds is on Saturday at 21:XNUMX p.m. - Aston Villa, a participant in the Champions League, will arrive at Anfield.
