'Lots of goals but loads of chances as well' - Slot

Liverpool boss Arne Slot, speaking to BBC Match of the Day: "Yeah [lots of goals] but loads of chances as well. It was 3-0 at half time but soon after that we could have scored three.

"On the other side it was good that not every chance that they had went in, they had two or three, one hit the post and one hit the bar. Against Leicester they had one chance and scored. We were a bit unlucky that we did not score in the first few minutes but as well we were lucky that at 1-0 Kudus hit the post.

"[Clean sheets] are one of the reasons why you win a lot. If every time you have to score two, three or four goals it is difficult, at the moment we do but it is not sustainable for a longer period of time. Sometimes you need a win by keeping a clean sheet and scoring one or two.

"At the end we did not need our clean sheet but it is always good for the confidence of the back line and goalkeepers.

"If a player makes a sprint then asks to go out we know it is a hamstring and it will not take one or two days to fix. The positive thing was that Joe [Gomez]'s replacement Jarrell Quansah played an amazing game. That shows how important the squad is.

On losing just one game in 2024: "Compliments to Nottingham Forest. They were the one."
