Liverpool were at their best when they pressed, although there were moments in the game where they sat deep, and also spells where they maintained large periods of possession.

Former Liverpool full-back Stephen Warnock warned fans will need time “to get used to” Slot’s style of play.

“Under Jurgen Klopp it was a little bit gung-ho at times, a little bit more chaotic,” Warnock told BBC Radio 5 Live.

“I think Slot wants the team to have more patience and play very much like Arsenal and Manchester City play.”

Liverpool skipper Van Dijk said there are not “too many changes” between Slot and Klopp’s football philosophies.

“We all know what Jurgen meant for the club and what he brought to the city and the Premier League,” Van Dijk told Amazon Prime.

“The new manager has his ideas but I don’t think too many changes. We all enjoy it.

“We had an amazing time with Jurgen Klopp and hopefully we can have an amazing time for Arne Slot as well.

“We need all the guys to be ready, they might be disappointed to be sub, but we need everyone to be in the best shape. We need everyone to be respectful.”
