Liverpool boss Arne Slot insists what made him feel good was the 2-1 win over a tough Brighton side, not the defeats to top-flight rivals Arsenal and Man City.
“Brighton have had good ideas about football for many years. They had a great plan today as well and they have spent a lot of money in the last few years to get that quality. ทางเข้า ufabet https://ufabet999.app I was not surprised that the first half was very difficult for us. The intensity was much lower than I would expect from our players.”
“But then the second half started and the game changed completely. It wasn’t about tactics without the ball, it was about running and just running. That’s what they mixed with a slightly different set-up.”
“We must not forget our fans who did everything for us today as well.”
On the loss of both Arsenal and Man City: “Not because of those results, but it was special because we played Arsenal last week, who are a very strong team, have quality and have good ideas about football.”
“Today we played against the same quality and the same idea, and in both games we had to come back from behind to get the result. That’s what made it a good day for me, not the results from other games.”
On turning the game around: “I was waiting for us to score but it didn’t happen, that’s why I had to make the substitution. The two players who came on were very strong. Then you can say there was a bit of luck, but the goalkeeper had a dead leg. Mo’s (Salah) second goal was special.”
“This is not the first time and it will not be the last time he will score from that position.”
