We’re getting ever closer to finding out who the winners and losers from Arne Slot’s appointment at Liverpool will be.
After so much build-up, Slot will officially arrive on Merseyside this weekend to start his Liverpool career.
It is a little bit of a leap of faith from the Reds, but anyone following on from Jurgen Klopp would have been.
All in all, Slot seems poised to be a very good hire.
Part of the reason there should be confidence over the Dutchman joining is because of the quality Klopp has left him in the Liverpool squad.

With Liverpool players away on holiday, we haven’t heard too much in the way of comment about Slot.
Trent Alexander-Arnold did say a few words recently, but the right-back didn’t go into too much detail.
Meanwhile, Virgil van Dijk has also briefly commented on Slot.

And, now away with the Netherlands national team, Van Dijk has opened up a little more on the 45-year-old via ESPN.
The outlet also carry quotes from Ryan Gravenberch, who had a mixed first season at Anfield.
Now 22, Gravenberch is clearly hoping that the arrival of his countryman will see him fulfil his mighty potential.
“I think he can be good for my career, it’s a coach who wants to play good football,” raved the Liverpool midfielder.
While more will be expected from Gravenberch as he grows into his role at Liverpool, Van Dijk is also set for a massive role under Slot.
With some speculation over his future, the Reds captain has moved to quell that.
Quite obviously, Van Dijk is going nowhere between now and the closing of the transfer window.
