ARNE SLOT'S WORDS AHEAD OF MANCHESTER CITY ENCOUNTER!

GETTY

Liverpool will be travelling to the Etihad stadium today for an English Premier League encounter against the defending English Premier League champions Manchester City.

The Arne Slot side are strong candidates to lift the English Premier League title this season as they are currently leading the pack with 61 points after match day 26 and City are in 4th place with 44 points after match day 25.

Arsenal who are in second place with 53 points missed out on a chance to close down the gap after losing 1-0 at home against West Ham United yesterday.

Below is what Liverpool coach Arne Slot said ahead of the Manchester City encounter as reported by Sky Sports News:

"Everybody is surprised that City is not up there because they've been up there for so many years. They have a great manager who has shown that he can be up there every single season. So I don't think anyone would have expected them now to be so many points behind us. I do see they are coming up again.

"I think last weekend they were very good against Newcastle. They have already brought in three or four new players, so I think everybody knows that this probably is a one-time season that they are not up there.

"Everybody knows that this is a one-time season that they are not up there, and everybody, at least I, expect them to be up there next season again because you can already see them going up. So that is a surprise, but I think they are already much better. They had one or two difficult months."

"They started the season well, I think they are getting there now again. But they dropped too many points in a difficult period of the season, where they had many injuries as well. And then this league is ruthless. If you are not at your best, then every game is hard."
