Liverpool have had an excellent start to their first season under their new head coach, but even so Arne Slot still has one eye on the future.

The Reds currently sit top of both the Premier League and UEFA Champions League tables and Slot has won all but two of his first 16 games in charge in Merseyside.

Slot’s side still hold a perfect record in the Champions League, and their emphatic 4-0 win over Xabi Alonso’s Bayer Leverkusen showed just how good the team can be.

After the match, Luis Diaz’s hat-trick will have been what most Kopites were talking about, but he wasn’t the only player to score three in Europe that night, and the other hat-trick scorer will have been on Slot’s mind too.
