Arne Slot is walking into huge shoes at Anfield and there’s set to be a lot of pressure on his shoulders from day one but we have reason to believe he can achieve success.

“I’ve seen lots of managers and seen a lot of people interacting with the press and this guy is a cool customer, he’s really, really good.”

The two-time Eredivisie winner clearly has a lot of faith in the Dutchman, something which should provide our supporters some peace of mind.
