Arne Slot Reveals a New Rule He Has Implemented at Liverpool After Jurgen Klopp’s Departure
Arne Slot has made history as the first manager of Liverpool to secure victories in eight out of his initial nine matches with the club.
The Dutch manager has begun his time at Liverpool on a high note, with the team currently at the top of the Premier League table and having won both of their matches in the Champions League.
Despite facing challenges in the transfer market, Slot has successfully revitalised the Liverpool squad.
The team’s defence has become formidable, anchored by Virgil Van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate, while the attack has been dynamic, spearheaded by Mohamed Salah and Luis Diaz.
As Liverpool move forward after Jurgen Klopp’s exit, the outlook is positive, and the Dutch manager aims to replicate the success of his predecessor.
Slot has built upon the impressive foundation laid by Klopp, maintaining many of the existing strategies at the club while introducing one new rule.
In a recent interview with Sky Sports, he addressed the changes made during his tenure, highlighting the single change from the Klopp era.
“Maybe we’ve implemented one or two (rules), but I don’t even know what they are,” said Slot.
“There was (already) a really good culture of players being on time, so I hate it if we have to talk about fines and these kinds of things for players being late. It’s normal that you’re on time.
“But that culture was already here, so maybe the only one – I’m not sure it’s a rule – but they used to go into hotels a lot the day before a game, and that’s what we’ve changed, because I and my staff feel the best place to sleep is your own bed, so it gives you the best rest possible.
“So it’s not really a rule, but that’s one of the few things we’ve changed.”
The impact of Slot on the club has been nothing short of remarkable.
He has successfully revitalised players who faced significant challenges last season, such as Ryan Gravenberch and Konate, while enhancing the skills of others like Diaz and Trent Alexander-Arnold.
This season, the Liverpool team that appeared to be devoid of ideas by the end of the previous campaign now presents a strikingly different outlook.
Although it is still early in the new manager’s tenure, the initial results are encouraging, leading fans to remain hopeful for a more promising future.
This weekend, Liverpool will take on Crystal Palace, who are still in search of their first victory this season in the Premier League.
