Liverpool has no rival. Arne Slot will win the Premier League in his first year in English football. The Norwegian coach has adapted perfectly, mastering group management from internal competition and has managed to free the group from the reign of Jürgen Klopp. It is time for titles. Eliminated in the FA Cup, although with the Premier in the
bag and the Champions League in sight.
Slot has overcome the shadow of his predecessor by breaking records, one after another. No one before, in 132 years of Liverpool's history, achieved 11 victories in their first 12 matches on the bench. Nor had anyone managed to win their first eight matches in European competition while managing the "reds." The "reds" are on track to win the Premier League well in advance and, if the winning pace does not drop, they will do so while staying very close to the best team in Premier history. That team was Mourinho's Chelsea.
The "blues" accumulated 64 points in their first 25 matches. The "reds" made 60 in the same 25 matches. In the end, that Chelsea finished with 95 points at the end of the competition. Liverpool has 67 in 28 matches, so they need to win almost everything to surpass the unbeatable Chelsea of the "Special One."
