Liverpool won 2-1 at home in the eighth round of the 2024-2025 EPL at Anfield, Liverpool, England on the 21st (Korea time).
Liverpool, which won four consecutive regular league games, recorded 7 wins and 1 loss, maintaining its single lead with 21 points.
It was the greatest crisis. Liverpool have been unexpectedly successful.
There was no significant reinforcement of power in the transfer market this summer. Jurgen Klopp left, and under Arne Slot, Liverpool was in a crisis.
In addition, it was not possible to renew contracts with the team's leading stars such as Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold.
There were numerous rumors of a transfer.
However, Liverpool were still strong this season.
In particular, this game attracted high attention. Chelsea is a powerhouse in the EPL. However, Liverpool was able to maintain its lead by catching it without difficulty.
The BBC said `Liverpool passed the biggest test ever.'
The media reported that `Arne Slot's controlled approach to Liverpool stands in stark contrast to his predecessor Jurgen Klopp.' `At this point, Liverpool's style is closer to the middle than his predecessor Jurgen Klopp's 'heavy metal', but it is on the way to the top of the Premier League.'
The tempo of the slot is more restrained than Klopp's trademark thrill, but he has continued his impeccable start since taking over as United manager with a 2-1 victory over Chelsea at Anfield.
The slot manager has won 10 games in 11 games since his appointment to Liverpool. It is the best record since Kenny Dalglish took the helm in the 1990-1991 season.
Liverpool's passing accuracy is 85.9 percent this season, slightly improving from Klopp's 85.8 percent in the last season. Liverpool has 22.6 long balls per game this season, down from 25.3 last season.
The overall statistics are similar, but there are distinct differences in passes made within the box. Under Klopp last season, he recorded 39.3 times per game and 28.9 times under the slot.
