"Our playing style is not so much different," said Slot, of comparisons with Klopp, at his first press conference in early July. An unbeaten pre-season was followed by three successive wins – including a 3-0 victory at fierce rivals Man Utd – in a perfect start to the Premier League campaign.

Liverpool has won the 2024-25 English Premier League after a X-X win/X-X draw against Tottenham Hotspur. With four games left of the campaign, the Reds can't be caught, confirming their 20th top-flight title. The achievement puts them at a level with North-West rivals, Manchester United, for the most in English football history.
