ReactionArne Slot's verdict on Liverpool 3-0 Man Utd, pre-season tour and US support
The Reds completed their work across the Atlantic on Saturday night with a comprehensive victory against their Premier League rivals, thanks to goals from Fabio Carvalho, Curtis Jones and Kostas Tsimikas.
Speaking to Liverpoolfc.com post-match, head coach Slot assessed his team's display at Williams-Brice Stadium and their time in the States as a whole – read on for the interview…
On being pleased with plenty of aspects of Liverpool's performance...
Yes, I was – but not with all of them. We are very happy with the result, we scored some really nice goals. But I don't think we had enough control over the game because United were threatening us more than a few times. It's a 3-0 win but the score could have been different tonight as well.
On the tour...
Very positive, I think. Of course the results, that's where everybody is looking at. But players stayed fit and they are able to perform in the way we want, so [a] high-intensity game. We saw some great goals during this tour, some great build-up situations and I see them working really, really hard not to concede. Like I said, today I think we gave away too many chances, United deserved more than a 3-0 loss. But it's also our quality that we do score our own chances.
On the hard work continuing back home ahead of the start to the season...
Absolutely. 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. 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.
On the incredible support in the USA...
I knew this before I arrived at this club but if you experience it, it's massive. Not only the fans inside the stadium but they come so early and they're constantly around the hotel as well. There's massive support and I can't wait to hear the support at Anfield.
