Liverpool manager Arne Slot has revealed he has changed his preparations for home games by allowing his players and staff to sleep at home instead of staying in hotels.
The Reds have made an impressive start to the season, winning nine of their 10 games in all competitions to sit top of the Premier League. Under Jurgen
Klopp, Liverpool players have had to spend the night in hotels before games at Anfield and Slot has made the change to allow his players to relax with their families.
“It’s agreat culture of punctuality for the players, and I hate having to talk about fines or anything like that if they’re late. Being on time is the norm, and we’ve got that culture here,” Slot said.
“Maybe the only thing (the rule change), I don’t know if it’s the rule, but they (the players and staff) used to go to the hotel a lot the day before the game and that’s what we changed because I feel my staff probably feel sleeping in your own bed is the best place to be, สมัคร ufabet it gives you the best rest. It’s not a rule but maybe it’s one of the few things we’ve changed. “
So before a home game the players are at home. And in my own bed instead of in a hotel. It’s not a rule, but it has changed.”
The 48-year-old also spoke about game day preparation. “It’s about watching the other team’s games and having preparation meetings. “
On game day, I always have a strategy meeting, which we try to implement during training the day before, but then show them more of what they can expect and what we want from them. “
So my main focus is on the game day meeting, to finish off how best to prepare the team. After that, I’m pretty relaxed because I think I’ve done what I have to do up until the game. But then you have to be ready to adjust if necessary.”
