The Reds have begun the Dutchman’s debut Premier League marketing campaign with a pair of 2-0 wins over Ipswich and Brentford, each of which had been achieved with a way of management and luxury, apart from occasional testing moments.

Carragher stated: “Final season was only a rollercoaster journey for supporters. It was so thrilling. You’d come away from the sport, late objectives, coming from behind – it felt like each sport was like a cup remaining.
“Liverpool wanted extra video games like this [today] final season. That was virtually like a Man Metropolis efficiency in that the sport felt completed as quickly because the second objective went in. It didn’t really feel like there was a lot jeopardy within the sport.
“I don’t suppose Arne Slot’s Liverpool are going to be as thrilling as Jurgen Klopp’s. That’s inconceivable. We may virtually identify 15-20 video games over these eight years beneath Jurgen Klopp the place we had been like ‘wow!’ – 4-3s, 3-2s, last-minute winners.
“It’s going to be completely different beneath Arne Slot and I’m to see how that’ll have an effect on the environment because the months go on as a result of it did really feel like an odd environment [today], however who is aware of, it nonetheless would possibly show to be as profitable, if no more, than final season.
“Final season the best way Liverpool performed, they couldn’t hold it going, falling behind, getting last-minute objectives. It wasn’t sustainable. They wanted extra video games like this and if Liverpool win extra video games like this, 2-0 and comfy at house, it’ll put them in an excellent place.”
We wouldn’t commerce the wonderful time we loved beneath Klopp for something, however we take Carragher’s level relating to how far more managed and composed Liverpool have appeared within the first couple of video games of Slot’s reign.
The dramatic comebacks ship nice pleasure, however followers’ coronary heart charges can be on a much more fascinating stage if we will proceed to rack up the wins as convincingly as now we have firstly of this season.
As for the Man Metropolis comparability…hopefully we will win Premier League titles with the identical regularity that they’ve (however with out the alleged monetary rule breaches to overshadow it!).
