There’s no hiding from the fact that Eddie Howe’s men deserved to leave St James’ Park with all three points, but in the end, the reigning Premier League champions got the result.
However, Chris Sutton believes that even though Liverpool beat Newcastle, Slot will still have been “furious” about Ryan Gravenberch being handed a yellow card after the challenges both Joelinton and Bruno Guimaraes made just moments before.
“I can imagine Arne Slot being furious that Gravenberch was given a yellow card, but Joelinton and Guimaraes haven’t,” he said while live on Sky Sports.

Although the main thing that matters is that Liverpool managed to come away with all three points, their first three competitive games of the season have been way below their usual standards.
Indeed, they have managed to win their last two, but even then, they’ve been much harder fought than many likely anticipated.
If Liverpool want to retain their Premier League title and perhaps go far in the Champions League this season, things need to change as soon as possible.
