Slot remarked, “If you’re in this game for a long time like these players are, or I am, then you know that, 20 games before the end, you don’t look at it that way.” He highlighted the rapid changes in team fortunes, referencing Manchester City’s recent struggles as a reminder of the league’s unpredictability.
He further stated, “There are so many challenges still ahead. It was only two months ago that we were one point behind City and look what has happened there in terms of injuries, then a bit of bad luck, and a suspension. This can happen to any team.” Slot emphasized the importance of focusing on each match individually, acknowledging the challenges posed by injuries and suspensions.
Slot also noted that Liverpool has not had any “easy wins” this season, underscoring the competitive nature of the Premier League. He stated, “It’s far too early to already be celebrating but it is of course nice for us to be the team we are. We know we are able to do this. But I don’t think there was any easy win for us in all these games.”
