Slot wants Galatasaray win to be Liverpool blueprint

Slot wants Galatasaray win to be Liverpool blueprint Arne Slot wants Liverpool’s 4-0 win over Galatasaray to be the blueprint for the rest of their campaign. Liverpool eased into the Champions League quarter-finals with an emphatic win over the Turkish champions on Wednesday, recovering from a first-leg loss to reach the last eight. The win was a much-improved performance from Liverpool, who dominated from start to finish.

Goals from Dominik Szoboszlai, Hugo Ekitike, Ryan Gravenberch and Mohamed Salah sealed the success, to set up a quarter-final showdown with Paris Saint-Germain. Reflecting on the win, Slot was asked whether the performance should set the standard for the run-in. “Yeah, but it’s not as simple as you think to say, ‘OK, if you can bring this tonight, you can bring this effort every single game you have.

’ There’s an opponent to play against, there’s a style of play. There are so many factors that why we could bring tonight what we could bring. “I think it’s fair to say for me – especially for all of you because you are following Liverpool so many times – that Anfield and the players can also rise to the occasion.

I think there have been many, many, many moments or parts of games where we showed this but usually we have 10 minutes where we drop down a little bit or the other team takes over and that’s 99 out of 100 times have been the moments where we conceded because that’s the first chance of them and they scored. “Now today that didn’t happen because we did not concede at all and we didn’t drop at all in terms of our intensity. So yeah, we would like us to perform every single time at this level.
