Liverpool Fans Impressed by Arne Slot’s ‘Elite Mentality’ After Manchester United Win
Liverpool’s pre-season tour has been a resounding success, with the Reds rounding off their American adventure with a 3-0 victory over Manchester United. And, as expected, the fans are impressed not just with the result, but with the manner in which the team approached the match.
Speaking after the game, manager Arne Slot praised his side’s high-intensity performance, stating, "We should have controlled the game better. United created big chances and deserved more than a 3-0 loss." But it was the Dutchman’s words on mentality that really caught the fans’ attention.
One fan tweeted, "He knew we’re still far from the best. Proper elite mentality." Another added, "Arne Scott is him!!!! We’ve got another J Klopp in this man, no doubt." The consensus was clear: Slot’s attitude and approach are exactly what the Reds need to take the next step.
The win over United capped off a successful tour, which saw Liverpool face off against Sevilla and Las Palmas. And, according to Slot, the team’s hard work paid off. "A lot of new players come in – I think seven, eight or nine maybe. Not new but they come back from their holiday. So it’s interesting to see how these players fit into the team and implement them as soon as we can."
With the Premier League season just around the corner, Liverpool will face off against Ipswich Town in their opening match. But the positivity surrounding the team is palpable. As Slot noted, "We need to work hard in the upcoming two weeks to be ready for Ipswich because there are a lot of positives to take from today but also, like I just said, we gave away too many chances."
