Liverpool head coach Arne Slot believes it is "too early" to describe his team at the best in the world, despite being labelled as such by Brentford boss Thomas Frank.

In a slight pivot to Klopp’s high intensity, ‘Gegenpress,’ Slot has deployed a more calculated pressing system. Liverpool no longer jump man to man to win the ball high, they now use a zonal pressing model which is seen as high risk, high reward.

Arne Slot admitted he feared history was repeating itself as Liverpool laboured against Brentford on Saturday, before substitute Darwin Nunez scored twice in stoppage time to extend the Reds' Premier League lead.
