A few quotes from Bill and Bob here that every successful Liverpool manager has followed, that Jurgen embraced and followed and Slot needs to learn

”“If a player is not interfering with play or seeking to gain an advantage, then he should be.”

FSG “We have a marvellous backroom team at Anfield who share the workload wonderfully well. No club has a more able and closely-knit staff than ours.
Youth development a d recruitment
“A lot of football success is in the mind. You must believe you are the best and then make sure that you are. In my time at Anfield we always said we had the best two teams on Merseyside, Liverpool and Liverpool reserves.
“It’s the greatest thing in the world, natural enthusiasm. You’re nothing without it.”
