It seemed impossible to follow club legend Jurgen Klopp and win the league in his first year, but Arne Slot has done just that at Liverpool.

It turns out there was life after Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool. A Premier League title in his first season in charge is quite the start by Arne Slot to his tenure at Anfield.

"Our playing style is not so much different," said Slot, of comparisons with Klopp, at his first press conference in early July. An unbeaten pre-season was followed by three successive wins – including a 3-0 victory at fierce rivals Man Utd – in a perfect start to the Premier League campaign.
