I don’t know if Liverpool would have won the league. They’re an excellent team, and in many ways, they are very similar to us.
They’ve been fortunate with injuries, and that’s allowed them to maintain stability, something we couldn’t achieve. It is what it is.
You can’t always get what you want. I know how tough it will be to secure a Champions League spot. I’m happy with how we performed against Newcastle and today.
I don’t want to say that if we had Erling Haaland, we would have won because that wouldn’t be fair to the players who gave their all today. Of course, with Erling, we’re a better team. With Rodri, John Stones, Akanji, and other players, we’re a better team.”
Arne Slot’s effective rotation strategies have helped Liverpool avoid major injuries, keeping them in the title race. Under Slot, the Reds have also managed to beat Man City in both encounters this season, completing a league double over them in his first year as Liverpool manager.
