The Reds have kicked off the new season in exceptional form, demonstrating their dominance and competitiveness from the outset. With only two goals conceded in six Premier League games, their attack, led by Luis Diaz and Mohamed Salah, has been prolific, consistently finding the back of the net.
Their success extends beyond the league, as they launched their Champions League campaign with an emphatic victory over AC Milan.
Slot takes a subtle dig at United
In his recent comments, Liverpool boss Arne Slot expressed his views on Manchester United. This occurred during his discussion with the media before his team's upcoming Champions League match against Bologna. It's important to know that Liverpool are yet to face a top 10 placed side in this year's Premier League.
“Every fixture is difficult in the Premier League but everybody tells me that a top league table team is harder to beat than a bottom league table team… and we have not faced one of them yet,” Slot said in the press conference.
Liverpool and Man United have already squared off this season, with Slot’s team crushing Erik Ten Hag’s side 3-0 at Old Trafford, in their own backyard.
It's Arne Slot's most impressive victory since taking charge at the club post the reign of Jurgen Klopp, showcasing the stark contrast in quality between the two Premier League teams.
In just a few months at Anfield, the Dutch manager has made a significant impact, asserting his authority on the squad and crafting a distinctive style of play. This is something his compatriot Erik Ten Hag has failed to achieve at Man United, despite having significantly more time and financial resources.
