Liverpool go to Leeds United on Saturday evening, once again hoping to turn around their fortunes.
After beating West Ham last weekend, we all thought a midweek home win against newly-promoted Sunderland would follow. Unfortunately that didn’t happen, but thankfully it wasn’t another defeat and we managed a 1-1 draw.
Saturday’s game at Elland Road is going to be another tough one. Leeds will be in high spirits after beating Chelsea on Wednesday night and will no doubt be looking for another three points from the Reds.
Here’s what Arne Slot had to say about the upcoming game…
“Yesterday I looked at Leeds v Chelsea and I thought I saw a Liverpool game, Chelsea conceding a set-piece and for the third goal making a big, big error where they conceded a goal from. Very difficult for them.
“Either Leeds went very aggressive to one-v-one or they went to a low block and it was really hard to create chances. It’s not only difficult for us, that playing style, it’s difficult for many teams, including us.
“So what we expect is what we’ve seen in the second half against Man City when they were 2-0 down, coming back to 2-2.
“Eventually Foden made the difference with a moment of magic for City and against City they were really strong and played a very good game.
“They were really aggressive and had a lot of long balls as well from their goalkeeper. We know what to expect but what to expect is probably what we’ve faced in all of the games with maybe the exception of two.”
