Statements by Arne Slott
The official Liverpool FC account published Arne Sloat’s statements, where he said: No one needs me to tell them that our recent performance was difficult, it was simply not good enough for this club or our fans, and the sooner we improve things, the better.
He added: At the same time, I hope that everyone will see the quality we have here, and thus be able to realize not only the potential we have, but also what can be achieved in the future if everyone continues to come together. It is never easy to come out of a difficult period, but the only option is to work hard as usual, believe in each other, and do everything we can, whatever our role.
He added: I do not look for positives at a time like this, because that is illogical in a club like Liverpool, where expectations are always very high, and no one should underestimate the effort that we see from the players every day. What we see in the training center is a fully committed team at all levels, and this has not changed from last season when we were achieving completely different results in most matches, and we hope that it will not be long before things start to improve.
Regarding the Crystal Palace match, he stated: We were two-0 behind, and to be completely honest, we did not really feel that we would return to the match, but nevertheless the fans kept cheering for us, and trying to help us make a difference. It was not destined, but what happened tells me that the crowd tonight will be great again, especially if we as a team show our best.
Arne Sloat confirmed: After a difficult start to the season, Villa’s performance has improved significantly in recent weeks, and they have achieved impressive results – including a victory over Manchester City last week – so we expect to face a team that is competent and confident, and they are an example of how quickly things can change as long as everyone’s faith and commitment continue, and as I mentioned before, these fundamentals are essential for us, not only tonight, but also in the days and weeks to come. I would like to welcome Unai Emery, his players, his coaching staff, the Aston Villa fans and officials to Anfield for tonight’s match.
Slott concluded: We have a week ahead of us in which we will face three big challenges, starting with tonight’s match, but we have proven time and time again our ability to rise to the challenge. This is what we will strive to achieve again, and as always, we will try to do so with our fans.
