Liverpool manager Arne Slot has downplayed the Premier League title race ahead of his side’s crucial match against Manchester City this Sunday. Speaking at the pre-match press conference, Slot emphasized that his primary concern is Liverpool’s own performance and consistency rather than league standings.
Slot acknowledged the recent challenges Liverpool has faced, including more defeats than usual, but expressed optimism following two recent victories that have helped restore confidence. He stressed the importance of improving the team’s play, maintaining player fitness, and achieving steady results to climb the table naturally.
Slot also shared insights into his tactical preparations, noting that Liverpool’s approach will adapt depending on the style of their opponents. He highlighted high-quality players on both teams and reiterated that matches in the Premier League and Champions League remain tough tests regardless of form.
Regarding individual contributions, Slot mentioned key players like Florian Wirtz, Mohamed Salah, and Dominik Szoboszlai, underlining their roles in Liverpool’s current resurgence. Injury updates were also given, offering hope for further squad reinforcement.
While the title race remains tightly contested, Slot’s pragmatic mindset focuses on performance improvements as the pathway to success rather than becoming preoccupied with points and standings.
