Speaking in the post-match conference, Slot expressed his admiration for his team's resilience and determination.

Without revealing too much, Slot mentioned the quartet for their 'outstanding' contribution to the match, citing their tireless work rate and unwavering commitment to the team's cause. 'They were instrumental in our victory, and it's not just about the goals they scored, but also their defensive work and teamwork,' the manager added.
While Slot chose not to name the four players, sources close to the team have revealed that the manager was particularly impressed with the performances of his midfield duo and his attacking flankers. It's no secret that these players have been in scintillating form this season, and their efforts have been instrumental in Liverpool's march to the top of the table.
Liverpool's victory against Brighton was a testament to the team's strength in depth and their ability to overturn adversities. As the Reds continue their momentum, one thing is clear: Arne Slot's men are determined to make their mark this season. With their squad depth and teamwork, they will undoubtedly be a force to reckon with in the Premier League.
