Arne Slot, Liverpool's coach, opened up after leading the team to an away victory over Tottenham Hotspur in the latest Premier League match but then faced some bad news.
Arne Slot, manager of the "Reds" Liverpool, said he was satisfied with the result after the team won 2-1 away at Tottenham Hotspur in the English Premier League last night, raising their points total to 29 and moving up to 5th place in the standings, level on points with 4th place Chelsea. However, he expressed concern about the severity of Alexander Isak's injury.
Slot said, "Getting three points from an away match at Spurs is very good. Playing here is always difficult because they are a strong team. Of course, they lost last week, so today they wanted to make amends in front of their fans. For us, the goal was to win again because we want victories to improve our position in the table, and in the end, we managed that."
"Certainly, we are happy about that, but at the start of the season, I wasn't overly excited or happy being in the top four because we always aim to do our best. After a strong start to the season, we were disappointed with some recent results."
"But I think it's not as bad as people say. It's true we are not yet perfect, but we knew that from the many changes we made in the team over the summer—that it would take time. Perhaps because we won five or six games early on, everyone thought it would be easy, but as a club, including the board, we knew that changes could bring different results, and that has proven true."
Regarding Alexander Isak's injury, "We have to wait and see. The game just ended, so it's too soon to comment. But having a player leave the field is never a good thing."
