Liverpool’s 2-0 win kicked off the season on a positive note for Arne Slot.

Liverpool won their first game of the Premier League season this past weekend in a 2-0 victory over Ipswich Town. And Alexis Mac Allister believes that Arne Slot is already influencing the team positively.

“I think this manager asks more to stay in the position, and that’s maybe like a different structure. But the principles are the same. We know that defensively we have to run, we have to give our 100 per cent, the last two steps are so important and that can make the difference”, he said.

“There is a couple of changes, not much, but I think Arne can help us to be a better team.”

Liverpool played a goalless first half, but recovered that in the second half with a 2-0 scoreline thanks to Mohamed Salah and Diogo Jota.

“Maybe [in the] first half we were not at 100 per cent but in the second half we showed the team we can be and we are really happy with our second-half performance. It was good to start with a win – it’s always important. We know that we came to a tough place”, Mac Allister explained.

“You could see how excited they [Ipswich] were to play football, to play in the Premier League again. It was a nice game for both. I think they showed good things as well. But the important thing is that we got the three points.”
