Arne Slot Changes His Attitude, Now the FA Cup is Liverpool’s Serious Target, Just Be Realistic!

Gilabola.com – Arne Slot seems to be starting to be realistic about his team’s targets this season. In the Premier League we are far behind, in the Champions League it is also difficult, finally the FA Cup is now Liverpool’s priority target.

Usually, the Cup tournament is not given much priority by big clubs and makes this tournament an opportunity to give opportunities to fringe players and young players.

Unless you have reached far enough, especially when you meet other big teams, then the main team will be sent out because they see that there is a big opportunity to win the trophy.

But Liverpool now seems to be starting to change their attitude. Realizing that the chances in the Premier League and Champions League are difficult, Slot is now chasing the FA Cup trophy, rather than nothing at all, right?

It should be noted that after the 0-0 draw against Arsenal in the middle of last week, Communists Now they are 14 points behind from the 21 matches they have played and Slot is realistic, their target is just the top four.

In the Champions League, of course there is still a chance because there is still a long way to go and it is still the league phase, but considering their performance so far, it is quite a difficult target.

The FA Cup is the most rational target if Liverpool wants to win the trophy, after last season this tournament barely left an emotional mark for them after being eliminated surprisingly by Plymouth Argyle.

This defeat came during a period when Arne Slot’s troops were focused on competition in the Premier League and European competitions which were considered more prestigious. The results were not bad, they at least managed to win the league.

So, sacrificing the FA Cup seemed acceptable because it had a bigger target, but now Slot has shifted priorities because it is no longer in the Premier League competition.

While they have also been eliminated in the Carabao Cup, the FA Cup is now a relevant target. The last time they won this tournament was four years ago when they won on penalties against Chelsea.

Now Arne Slot’s troops can repeat this achievement because their squad is competitive enough to compete in this tournament. Ahead of the match against Barnsley, Slot even made a statement that surprised many journalists.

He said the positive result against Arsenal could be a benchmark for Liverpool’s readiness to compete in the final phase of the FA Cup and Champions League, indicating that the FA Cup is no longer just a rotation event.

Slot considers that winning in big matches builds that confidence Communists able to go far in the knockout phase, and consider the FA Cup no longer just an annoying schedule.

Our opinion

Slot’s change in attitude towards Liverpool’s priorities makes sense. After spending IDR 10 trillion and not winning any trophies, there will definitely be problems, right? So, if not the Premier League, there will be the FA Cup, the important thing is the trophy.
