Arne Slot has told his Liverpool players to keep working hard because they’re not a great team yet.
Liverpool can secure one of the seven wins needed to guarantee a record-equalling 20th title against Southampton at Anfield on Saturday and Slot insists they must not let up.
Slot claims Liverpool are not yet as good as previous great Reds teams, who could win a game in just 30 minutes.
He is wary of complacency setting in and his side are a massive 13 points clear of Arsenal at the top of the Premier League.
The Reds head coach remembers how Liverpool struggled to get over the line at home to Wolves last month and the two tough games Southampton gave them at St Mary’s.
He knows they have to keep grafting and said: “Wolves was difficult, Southampton away was difficult, the League Cup was difficult, against Paris St Germain it was really difficult.
.
“So, yes, we’re a really good team, but not a team that every week wins four or 5-0 and after half an hour, it’s already 3-0.
We’ve seen a team doing that in recent years a few times and I think longer ago, Liverpool also had that, after half an hour, it was already 3-0.
“We’re not that team yet.
We only have to look at the game we played against Southampton away, a 3-2 win, a very difficult on, we were a goal down.
“So, no, we’re not looking at all at the results of Arsenal, we look at our own and we know we have to be on top of our game because if we’re on top of our game, we mostly win by one-goal margins.”
