The clash against Manchester City will be a crucial test for Liverpool. This is what coach Arne Slot said on the eve of the Premier League superchallenge, which will be played on Sunday afternoon, emphasizing the importance of this meeting in the final stages of the season.
"City remains a strong team and will always be so. For us, this match is another moment to understand where we are on our path to growth. We know how important it is to get a result, but this applies to everyone, because now the decisive phase of the season has begun and points weigh more and more," declared the Dutch technician.
Slot, who currently sees his colleague Guardiola from the bottom of the table, with City eight points ahead of Liverpool and six behind leaders Arsenal, is looking for a signal of strength from his team. The Reds are currently in sixth place, but just two points behind Manchester United who hold fourth place, the minimum target for Champions League qualification.
Slot has ignored the initial criticism and has continued to regularly activate the German, a choice that is paying off. "The main credit for the improvement is his, but the coach's job is to insist and throw the player on the field. Only by playing can footballers grow," said Slot.
