Liverpool head coach Arne Slot felt that his side's 2-0 win over Newcastle United was a return to normality in terms of performance after the victory at Manchester City last weekend.

That's always easier because people start to question you, but after City everyone was so positive then people start to get confident and complacent.

Only the ones that want to achieve something, they find another gear to win the next game as well.

"We have had a lot of praise after City game but before that we had two draws and not the best game against Wolves so we were questioned.

This was a different challenge because people were so positive after City, that needs a different kind of mental strength to then face a tough Newcastle side a few days later."



And that will allow for some extra preparation time ahead of PSG, with the players afforded a couple of days off.

"Some players who need game time could have played," Slot continued

"Unfortunately, we don't play in the FA Cup this weekend, so we have a couple of days off, and some players need that, but others could've had a game."

Liverpool.com says: Slot is right to be pleased with how his players implemented the game plan
