This remarkable start puts Slot in elite company, matching the record set by Guus Hiddink and Carlo Ancelotti during their respective spells at Chelsea. No manager has enjoyed a better Premier League debut since then. Enter Arne Slot, who has taken Liverpool’s momentum to new heights.

Maintaining this pace, however, will be a formidable challenge. On Wednesday, Liverpool will host Real Madrid in a highly anticipated Champions League clash. Then, over the weekend, Manchester City visits Anfield for what promises to be a blockbuster Premier League encounter. The stakes couldn’t be higher, especially for City, who are reeling after an unprecedented run of five consecutive defeats—a streak unseen since 1956.
