Arne Slot believes the emphatic nature of Liverpool’s identify triumph and the emotional celebrations that adopted will lend a hand the membership beat off pageant for his or her major switch objectives this summer time.
The Liverpool head trainer gave his avid gamers two days off as praise for clinching a record-equalling 20th league identify on Sunday, when a birthday celebration used to be held at Anfield after the 5-1 rout of Tottenham. Slot’s celebrations persisted together with his spouse’s birthday meal on Monday prior to his center of attention switched again to trade on Tuesday.
Slot described remaining Sunday as one of the vital highest days of his existence and claimed it could encourage his squad to recreate the unforgettable scenes at Anfield subsequent season. He believes Liverpool’s switch objectives may even need to be a part of a “special” membership.
“To experience this once is really nice,” Slot stated. “But we would love to experience it one more time. It has been special for all the fans and it’s definitely been special for the players and for us as well. Now we know why, when we start next season, what we do it for.
“But it definitely helps to attract new players as well because mostly the players that we want, we are not the only club who thinks they are good players, so they have more options. Then maybe it helps for them to see that the way we do things here is special. Until now, if I spoke to players who we wanted to bring in, I always told them that our fans are really special and it is special to play at this club. But after Sunday I don’t think I ever have to tell anyone again how special our fans are because that was unbelievable.”
One benefit of profitable the Premier League in April, in keeping with Slot, is that it offers Liverpool extra time to paintings on transfers and get ready for subsequent season. He intends to make use of the general 4 suits as groundwork for subsequent season via rotating his squad greater than standard.
He stated of plans for subsequent season: “I already did this a little bit in the background. It’s not like after we won the league was the first time Richard [Hughes, Liverpool’s sporting director] called me and said: ‘OK, these are the players we are interested in.’ That would be a bit weird. But there’s a bit more time now to have these conversations.
“But let there be no mistake, we want to win every single game we play. The players will be prepared in the same way [for Chelsea on Sunday] as they’ve been prepared for all the other games.”

Slot’s identify celebrations confirmed he’s going to now not lose center of attention. “Monday was my wife’s birthday, she was here together with the children and some friends, so we had lunch together,” he stated. “Tuesday they left and I had left my car at Anfield so went back to pick it up. And Wednesday we trained.
“It’s not like the whole world has changed by winning this league title. Sometimes you think before you win: ‘Oh, probably everything is going to change.’ But when I woke up Monday morning I still felt the same person. I felt really happy, but it doesn’t completely change you in your life all of a sudden.”
