Curtis Jones has heaped praise on Liverpool’s new manager, Arne Slot, and the impact he’s had at Anfield following Jurgen Klopp’s departure.
Curtis Jones on Arne Slot: ‘The Happiest I’ve Been at Liverpool’
Speaking after a string of impressive performances, including his standout showing against West Ham, Jones highlighted how Slot’s style has rejuvenated him and many of his teammates.
“It’s probably the happiest I’ve been in terms of how we play,” Jones said.
“We’ve got a clear plan, and Slot’s fully involved in everything. He focuses on the finer details, and it’s working.”
The young midfielder, who has dealt with injury setbacks, has returned to the pitch with renewed enthusiasm under Slot.
His words echo the sentiments of several Liverpool players who have publicly praised the Dutch manager’s influence.
Conor Bradley called Slot’s approach “refreshing,” while Alexis Mac Allister commended the coach’s tactical acumen, noting that his attention to detail is key to their success.
Slot’s arrival signaled a new chapter for Liverpool after Klopp’s transformative nine years at the helm.
There was an expectation that it would take time for the team to adapt, but with six wins, 18 goals scored, and only three conceded, Liverpool’s resurgence under Slot has been quicker than anticipated.
For players like Jones, it’s not just about the results but also the joy of playing football again.
“I just want to play with a smile on my face,” Jones added, reflecting the overall mood in the Liverpool camp.
With Slot at the helm, the Reds are thriving, and the future looks bright.
