New Liverpool gaffer Arne Slot insisted his team still need to improve, after bringing their pre-season tour of the United States to a conclusion following their 3-0 win over Erik ten Hag’s Manchester United — ensuring them finishing with three wins in three games.
The 45-year-old, who replaced Jurgen Klopp, has overseen wins for the Reds against Arsenal and Real Betis.
Their next test is against Spanish outfit, Sevilla at Anfield before their Premier League opener away at newly-promoted Ipswich on August 17.
Quizzed if he was pleased with his new team’s start to his coaching era, Slot expressed satisfaction but understood there is more to be done.
“Yes, I was but not with all of them. We are very happy with the result, we scored some really nice goals … very positive tour.
“But I don’t think we had enough control over the game, I think we gave away too many chances. United deserved more than a 3-0 loss but it’s also our quality that we do score our own chances.
“We will see how players [returning from holidays] fit into the team. We need to work hard in the upcoming two weeks to be ready.”
