Alisson and Andy Robertson Compare Arne Slot to Jurgen Klopp: Liverpool’s Defensive Revolution
Liverpool players Alisson and Andy Robertson have praised the impact of new manager Arne Slot, particularly highlighting the defensive improvements since he replaced Jurgen Klopp.
Slot has led Liverpool to three consecutive Premier League wins without conceding a goal, including a dominant 3-0 victory over Manchester United, leaving the team joint top of the league alongside Manchester City.
Alisson expressed his admiration for Slot’s approach, noting the increased defensive determination and the quality that Slot has instilled in the team.
He emphasized that while he still holds deep respect and affection for Klopp, Slot’s demanding style has brought out the best in the team’s defensive efforts.
Similarly, Robertson pointed out the increased defensive security under Slot compared to Klopp’s more attacking style.
He highlighted the importance of clean sheets in winning titles, drawing parallels to Manchester City’s and Liverpool’s past successes.
Robertson also noted that Alisson has had fewer shots to save this season, attributing this to the entire team’s hard work, including the defensive unit and the wingers.
As Liverpool prepare to continue their strong start to the season after the international break, the players’ comments suggest that Slot’s emphasis on a solid defense could be key to their title ambitions.
The team will next face Nottingham Forest at Anfield, aiming to extend their run of clean sheets and victories.
