The Dutch coach’s career has started on the right foot in Liverpool as he visits Arsenal

Anfield is undergoing a smooth transition. Klopp left and Slot arrived. The Dutchman has been a breath of fresh air, with renewed energy and slightly modifying the system he inherited from Klopp. Just enough. With good results.

Liverpool have won eleven of their 12 games this season. Only Aston Villa’s better goal difference prevents the Anfield side from occupying the top spot in the Champions League, and that’s despite Slot’s men having only conceded five goals all season. Against Leipzig, in their last continental match, the Reds won against the current, laboriously. They did not dominate the pitch or take control as they usually do. It was their sixth consecutive victory away from home, a feat that Liverpool had never achieved in their history.
