“I repeat, I don’t see Man United as a top team and that’s because they’ve decided to be keeping their best player on bench… Unless they start using THREE of them, they’re not a big team”: Liverpool coach Arne Slot reveals the real reason he’s doesn’t see Man United as a big team
Liverpool are sitting comfortably at the top of the league ahead of Manchester City and Arsenal.
The Reds have started the new season in fine form, showing their strength and competitiveness in the early stages of the season.
In six Premier League games, they have just conceded two goals and their attack, inspired by Luis Diaz and Mohamed Salah, has managed to perform well and scored goals for fun.
Not only in the league but also in the Champions League, they started their campaign with a convincing win against AC Milan.
Liverpool boss Arne Slot has aimed a thinly-veiled dig at Manchester United with his latest comments.
The Reds boss was speaking to the media ahead of his team’s Champions League encounter against Bologna.
He said, as quoted by the Liverpool Echo:
“Every fixture is difficult in the Premier league but everybody tells me that a top league table team is harder to beat than a bottom league table team… and we have not faced one of them yet”.
