Arne Slot has been a revolutionary manger whose short-term pragmatism is set to seal Liverpool a commanding Premier League title.

The masses will view Lukeba as the perfect LB for Liverpool.

However, for the demands that Slot places on the LB, Milos Kerkez is the perfect solution.

Comfortable deep, interiorly and high & wide, this is a game-changing LB.

Zubimendi should be the priority for Liverpool.

This is an Arne Slot DM.

A ‘pass-first’, metronomic controller who connects all zones together. A ‘lighthouse’ DM to lead Liverpool to unprecedented heights.

Slot can hit a 100+ point season.

It will require January investment, but the potential is there.

Ultimately, Liverpool would need to purchase at least 2 Arne Slot players.

Arsenal have had a shaky start to the season but have no doubt, they are Liverpool’s main league rivals now.

They possess the game-winners & physical duel-monsters to control any game-state and dispatch opposition with ease.

Manchester City have bowed out of the title race already.

They will go 11 points behind Liverpool by next Sunday.

That is an unattainable distance to claw back.

Therefore, Slot only has to dispose of one team to win the league.

There is an aura of inevitability surrounding Arne Slot.

Even in freak conditions, Slot comes out on top.

Take the freshly finished Southampton game, does Jürgen Klopp get the 3 points?

I don’t think so.

Slot’s approach to the conditioning of his players has been pivotal in maintaining success.

He is finely tuned with his medical department and grants the experts the final say on player’s application.

Ibrahima Konate is yet to miss a game for Liverpool…

Arne Slot’s overarching desire in all phases is control, this has been evident in build-up phases also.

Liverpool, like all teams, play out from the back to control possession. However, Slot aims to control the opponent’s transitional threat.

Therefore, Liverpool go long to their isolated 1v1’s.

Attacking wise, Liverpool have devastating wingers & Mo Salah.

In order to maximise the current players, Slot’s aim was to create optimal conditions for these wingers to win games.

As a result, Slot aims to isolate his wingers 1v1, high & wide, in settled play to allow them to influence the game.

Slot’s overarching defensive principle is to maintain a +1 in the backline to establish constant numerical superiority

This allows Liverpool to control and minimise opponent’s threat.

Conceding only 6 goals, defensive solidity provides a mighty platform to win games.

Slot’s paramount priority was providing a stable foundation to platform these individuals to allow them the perfect conditions to win games.

As a result, the defensive and attacking setups were key.

Liverpool have 4 world class talents:

- Alisson
- Virgil van Dijk
- Mohammed Salah
- Trent Alexander-Arnold

Subsequently, Arne Slot’s strategy was to optimise these game-winning individuals.

In order to maximise the pre-existing world class talent at his disposal, Slot has opted for a short-term pragmatic solution.

Slot has not needed £200M of players to stamp his identity on his side.

Arne Slot’s approach this season has defined him as a world-class coach.

Many managers come into a new club and opt to suffer initially in order to establish long-term tactical philosophies and principles.

The Dutchmen has not.

Just 4 managers in the history of the Premier League have won the league in their first season.

- Jose Mourinho 2004/05
- Carlo Ancelotti 2009/10
- Manuel Pellegrini 2013/14
- Antonio Conte 2016/17

Arne Slot WILL add his name to this illustrious list.
