Slot discusses challenges of managing Liverpool amid winning streak
Liverpool's head coach, Arne Slot, has shed light on why he doesn’t view managing the team as an easy task, despite their impressive winning streak.
Recently, the Merseyside club thrashed Bayer Leverkusen 4-0 in the fourth-round match of the Champions League group stage. The Reds remain unbeaten in their last 12 games, with just one draw in that sequence.
We have to work really hard, play with an incredible high intensity to win our games, and that has a lot to do with teams – I heard Bayer Leverkusen saying this as well – they think, and I have to agree with them, that Anfield is the best place to play in, one of the nicest stadiums to play in and against a very good team. So, every team that plays against us is in the top of their game.
And if you want to win that, you always have to be consistent in your intensity, and that's not always easy but that is what's needed. And if we can keep producing that then it's still not easy but then we get our wins in and that is what we want," Liverpool's press office quotes Slot as saying.
Liverpool currently tops the Champions League group stage standings with 12 points. In the English Premier League, the Merseysiders also hold the first position, amassing 25 points.
