Liverpool players MARVEL at Arne Slot SUPERPOWER

Liverpool have made an incredible start to the season under new head coach Arne Slot.

In fact, according to Opta data, the Dutchman has equalled a 135-year record since taking over at Anfield.

Not since William Sudell was in charge of Preston North End in 1888/89 has an English top-flight manager reached 20 wins in as few matches as Slot has.

It’s taken the former Feyenoord boss only 24 games to reach that landmark as Liverpool’s season shapes up to be a success.

With progress sealed to the Champions League last-16, the EFL Cup semi-finals and with the club top of the pile in the Premier League, Slot is on target to win major honours in his first season at the club.

Arne Slot can PREDICT the future

The Reds’ hierarchy couldn’t have asked for any more from their new appointment and his performance has certainly left the players gobsmacked too.

With largely the same squad of players as Jurgen Klopp was working with last season, Slot has transformed Liverpool into one of the most dominant teams around. And he has done so with a pragmatic approach which is getting the most out of each of the men at his disposal.

Slot’s approach has won favour from his squad members with the Athletic reporting that they have been left STUNNED with one superpower in particular.

In an article referencing Slot’s standing among the great and good of the game, it’s been claimed that players have been bowled over at Slot’s former clubs - as well as Liverpool - for his ability to predict how matches will play out.

“Slot’s attention to detail has impressed and, like at his former clubs Feyenoord and AZ Alkmaar, players have marvelled at how he predicts certain scenarios will play out during games,” the report states.

Liverpool players think Slot is better than Klopp

Furthermore despite Liverpool winning every major honour under Klopp, it’s been claimed that the players believe Slot is EVEN BETTER than his predecessor.

The players have been left ruing the fact Slot wasn’t in charge over the past couple of seasons when Liverpool were more often than not chasing down Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City.

“The Athletic has been told that at least three players at Anfield have said in private that Slot’s methods could have served the team well during times in recent seasons when they just missed out on the biggest prizes,” the report states.

“Slot’s quiet pragmatism may have been of benefit at times when Klopp’s brand of high-energy, ultra-intense football fell fractionally short.”
