The Reds coach paid compliments to Nottingham Forest, his team’s future opponent on Tuesday in the Premier League.
Nottingham Forest “deserved” to be considered a contender for the title of champion of England, Arne Slot, Liverpool coach, argued on Monday on the eve of a delicate trip to the City Ground.
“I’ve always said that it’s halfway through the season that you can draw the best conclusions from the table, so if Nottingham are at the top with us, Arsenal, Chelsea, (Manchester) City and all the others, it’s is that they are in competition with us and others. They deserve to be treated as such if you look at how they play and their results.explained the Dutchman at a press conference.
Forest, surprising third in the English championship and the only team to have beaten Liverpool this season in the Premier League, will return in the event of a three-point victory for the Reds.
Nottingham spent more than €100m on the transfer window last summer
Winners of the European Cup in 1979 and 1980, Nottingham, returned to the Premier League in 2022 after more than twenty years in the lower tier, remain on six consecutive victories in the league and have not conceded a goal since mid-December . Arne Slot also highlighted the work of Forest coach, Portuguese Nuno Espirito Santo, while saying he was not surprised to see the team at this level.
“They do really beautiful things and Nuno does an incredible job. But if you look at the amount of money they’ve spent, it’s not a total surprise that they’re doing well this season.he said. First non-relegation last year, the club from central England spent more than 100 million euros during the transfer window last summer.
