Arne Slot said sky-high expectations at Liverpool would not allow for any let-up next season after they won the Premier League title in style on Sunday. A crushing 5-1 victory against Tottenham at a raucous Anfield put the Reds out of reach of nearest challengers Arsenal with four games to go. Liverpool are now level with bitter rivals Manchester United on 20 English top-flight titles after winning just their second league crown in the Premier League era.
It is a remarkable achievement for Slot, who took over the managerial reins from Jurgen Klopp last June, with few pundits expecting him to win the league in his first season. But Liverpool started at a sprint and have lost just two league matches all season as Manchester City, Chelsea and Arsenal all failed to mount a consistent challenge. Thousands of fans lingered outside Anfield hours after the final whistle on Sunday, chanting and letting off fireworks as they revelled in the club’s success.
