As he face the media on Friday for the first time as new Liverpool head coach, Arne Slot admitte he has “big shoes to fill” as the Dutchman attempts to build on the legacy of his legendary predecessor Jurgen Klopp.

“They are big shoes to fill but you can look at it as inheriting a squad and a team which has a winning culture,” he said at his first press conference.
One of the reasons to come here — and there are always more reasons for this — but I do feel we have a really good squad, and as a manager you want to work at a club with good players with an opportunity to win something.
“The past has shown there is a possibility to win some trophies. I like to work with players and like to develop them but I like to win as well, and at this club there is an opportunity to win.
“It always helps to get to know the city but I think, as a manager, it helps even more if you win most of your games.
“If we do that in the best possible way it will probably give me some time as well, and if I have time then I can get to know the city a bit better.
“But it all starts with improving the team and winning as many games as we can.”
