Slot inherited the reins at Anfield after J\u00fcrgen Klopp\u2019s transformational era of almost nine years in charge of Liverpool concluded last summer.<\/p>\n
The Reds had finished third in 2023-24 alongside lifting the Carabao Cup at Wembley, providing solid foundations on which to build under former Feyenoord boss Slot.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was a good job to get,\u201d reflected Dalglish. \u201cI know J\u00fcrgen left and J\u00fcrgen in his own way was hugely successful at Liverpool and a great manager.<\/p>\n
\u201cArne is a different breed but he is still a great manager. They had a great year last year and we\u2019re looking forward to this year. It\u2019s not that anybody needs to be better than somebody else, you just need to be better than the people you\u2019re playing against.<\/p>\n
\u201cTaking over from J\u00fcrgen, you\u2019re better taking over from a team that\u2019s a good team. I think I would rather have it, with a good team than having to build one yourself.<\/p>\n
\u201cNow he\u2019s seen them and had a look, maybe he\u2019s starting to get it in his mind to make a few changes to bring in some of the people he likes, which I think is fair enough. I think it\u2019s brilliant the way he\u2019s gone about it.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe had a hard act to follow and follow as well as he did. Now he\u2019s got himself in. I\u2019m sure we\u2019re all looking forward to [next season].<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd he\u2019s a really good guy. They say good people don\u2019t normally win but I don\u2019t think that\u2019s the case. So, fingers crossed for him this year because he deserves it.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe couldn\u2019t have done any better. A really, really good job he did \u2013 and I hope it continues for him.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Slot inherited the reins at Anfield after J\u00fcrgen Klopp\u2019s transformational era of almost nine years in charge of…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":13146,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[563],"tags":[13514,64,63,13515,596,13503,13510,13505,13516,13518,13517,7886,13509,13508,13504,13513,13506,13511,85,13507,13512],"class_list":["post-13145","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-football","tag-alisson","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-firmino","tag-football","tag-homepage","tag-klopp","tag-lfc","tag-lfc-news","tag-lfctv","tag-lfctv-go","tag-liverpool-fc","tag-liverpool-fc-match","tag-liverpool-fc-news","tag-liverpool-football-club","tag-mane","tag-reds","tag-salah","tag-sports","tag-the-reds","tag-van-dijk"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13145","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13145"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13145\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13146"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13145"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13145"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13145"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
