The coach of Liverpool, Arne Slot, has stood out this Monday, in the press conference prior to the match against Girona in the Champions League, that last season the Catalan team was “very close to being Leicester”, because it competed for the LaLiga title, and he pointed out the “excellent management” of Míchel Sánchez.

He has also claimed that this course the team is “improving beyond what may seem from the results” and that In the Champions League he has had “bad luck” and he has been “very good” in all the games except the defeat against PSV (4-0), so his players must be “at the highest level” in Montilivi.

Slot has highlighted the “football idea” of Girona and has admitted that he finds the “very free” position of Míchel’s sides, “something that was not seen so often in football and that is now seen in other teams.” He has assured that the rival has “many good players”, but he has been left with Daley Blind, for his performance and because he is also Dutch.

The coach of Liverpool, leader of the Champions League with full victories and also in the Premier League, has stated that it seems that it will be “quite useful” to finish among the top eight in the Champions League phase, to save a round intermediate. The team needs “another victory” to seal the classification and Montilivi is “the first option” to get ithe added.

Slot has also explained that there is “no reason” to do rotations, because Liverpool did not play Saturday’s derby against Everton when it was postponed due to a storm and “all the players are fit”, so they will field “a very powerful eleven” against Girona.
