"Arne Slot has claimed Liverpool have much more to offer this season and can become the dominant team he envisaged, although only once their set-piece failings have been eradicated. Liverpool have stemmed a damaging sequence of nine losses in 12 games the club's worst run in 71 years to climb to fifth in the Premier League, level with fourth-placed Chelsea."
"But Slot, who admits Liverpool's position remains below expectations, insists he will not get carried away by an unbeaten run of six matches because the team's performance level requires big improvement. I think we should be higher, let that be clear I was expecting and hoping for us to be higher in the table but even in the last six games the difference between us and the other team is constantly too small."
Arne Slot believes Liverpool can offer much more this season and become dominant once set-piece weaknesses are fixed. Liverpool halted a run of nine losses in 12 games to rise to fifth in the Premier League, but the position remains below expectations. Slot refuses to be swept up by a six-match unbeaten run and stresses the team must produce clearer superiority to avoid results hinging on luck. Suspensions and long-term absences affect selection, and refereeing and set-piece issues had a major early-season impact that must be corrected to progress.
