Liverpool boss Arne Slot on his excitement of facing Manchester City and his feeling of the need to find consistency
AXA Training Centre, Liverpool, UK
Transcript
00:00You said before about finding consistency with the team,
00:04how much of a boost would it be for everyone in terms of having faith
00:09that your troubles are behind you if you can go to Manchester City
00:13and get a result to build on what you did against Real Madrid and Aston Villa this week?
00:18Yeah, to make that a little bit more clear, we were actually very consistent,
00:23but the thing is we were consistent in losing.
00:26So that wasn't the idea about being consistent,
00:31doing the things right which we have to do and improving in that way.
00:37So, yeah, City is of course a game on itself,
00:41you could say playing there away from home is probably one of the most difficult challenges
00:46you have throughout the season,
00:48although I constantly keep on saying how difficult it is to play Brentford away
00:52or Palace away, every away game is difficult,
00:56not every home game as well, but an away game even more.
00:59And that's I think what City have felt this season,
01:01because they've lost I think two away games, we've lost away games.
01:06The only exception to that is Arsenal, who maybe lost one away game against us,
01:10but they've been the exception this season,
01:13where the rest have probably done similar things.
01:17So, yeah, very interesting game to look forward to,
01:22because when I wasn't working here and when I was in Holland,
01:28I did know when City-Liverpool was, or where Liverpool City was,
01:32and I could tell you I was 100 per cent sure in front of my television when this game was there,
01:37similar to Clásico, by the way.
01:39But these are the few games everyone is looking forward to.
01:42And if you're not part of it, you're looking forward to it as well.
01:45Do you think it'll be worth watching again?
01:47I think it's always worth watching because so many great individuals are playing that game.
01:53And, yeah, these teams nine out of ten times give you what you expect.
02:04For me with Pep that's ten out of ten, and people should give their opinion about me,
02:09but what I liked about Pep Guardiola's teams is that you ten out of ten times get what you're hoping for,
02:19a great game of football with no time wasting and no all kind of things that I start to dislike
02:25more and more and more about football.
02:27But these are not the things you can see if you're watching a Man City game.
