Liverpool icon Jurgen Klopp gives honest feedback on Arne Slot

Former Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has praised the work his replacement Arne Slot is doing at Anfield.

The Reds opened the season with an impressive win against Ipswich Town, with goals from Diogo Jota and Mohamed Salah.

They play their second game of the season at Anfield against Brentford and Slot will be hoping for the same performance as his team last week.

Klopp has acknowledged that Slot is working well on his ideas and that his former club is in safe hands under the leadership of the Dutch manager.

“We spoke once or twice (in the beginning),” Klopp told ESPN Netherlands:

“I think we texted a few more times. But I can’t tell him anything he can’t know himself. Now from my side, just to give positive feedback in the beginning, because we’re all human and he worked really hard.

“I know that because the tour is super intense in a year where you have the European Championship and the Copa, you don’t have the team together, but they come, you have one week until the first matchday and things like that.

Arne Slot hopes to become as successful as Jurgen Klopp was at Liverpool.

“So I think he had a similar situation, but exactly the same situation? Absolutely not. When I saw the games, that’s why I watched them, not to think, oh, what does it look like? The work he did was clear, the ideas were clear. And that’s the best thing you can say about the coach.”

Liverpool fans will be hoping Slot can emulate Klopp’s success at Anfield.

The German manager led the Reds to glory in the Premier League and the Champions League.

The start under Slot has been impressive, despite the club not having signed any new players.

Slot is happy with his selection and is ready to make the Merseyside club competitive again and challenge for trophies.

If Klopp agrees, it would encourage Liverpool’s new manager to continue the fantastic job he is doing at the club.

It is no easy task for Slot to replace Klopp. He was manager of Liverpool for nine years and was not only successful on the pitch but also built a strong bond with the fans and the community.
