As Arne Slot prepares to chat before Sunday's crowning glory at Anfield, it feels fitting the Liverpool boss is clutching an encyclopedia about the club he has just guided to its 20th league title.
It's unclear if the book, which was given as a gift at the AXA Training Centre on Friday, charts the progress made during his wildly spectacular 24/25 campaign on Merseyside.
But what is obvious, on the eve of Slot and his players picking up their Premier League winners' medals in front of 60,000 fans, is that the comprehensive read - given to him by LFCHistory's Arnie Baldursson - will need some Slot-centric chapters adding to it in the coming years.

In a world where it has become increasingly rare for managers to become long-serving stalwarts at the clubs that employ them, Slot can see a world where he emulates the likes of Pep Guardiola, whose new contract will take him past a decade of service at Manchester City.
Or, dare it be said, like his predecessor Jurgen Klopp, whose nine-year stint in the Anfield hotseat saw him lift every major trophy available while establishing an almost unbreakable bond with supporters along the way.
"That's hard to say [but] I could see it, yes," Slot says.

"There was never one second of a doubt and that had largely to do with the fact why they wanted me and how they tried to convince me to come," he says.

“I don't think [Hughes] showed me everything, but he knew many, many, many games and many of the assessments I've made during games, the changes I made in tactics.
"Julian, I think that it's known as well, he visited the (Feyenoord) training ground, so he spoke with a lot of people trying to get some knowledge for the club and how I worked over there.
"He spoke with multiple people, so there was not a stone unturned, as I know now because this is also the way we try to bring players in.
"Every manager that works in Holland would like to go to the Premier League and, if you can, go to a club where you can win something.
"The two main reasons, apart from the history and winning, was what I just said."
Slot need only look into his new encyclopaedia to find that history of winning he speaks of.
