Axa training centre

AXA Training Centre: A day after Liverpool winger Luis Diaz hailed Arne Slot and credited the new head coach for his incredible form so far in the new season, the Dutchman had a humble response claiming a player of Luis Diaz’s quality will ‘always score a lot of goals'.

"We train daily trying to get them as most we can in certain situations and then help them in the best possible way where to position themselves and what to do in certain situations. But it's mainly also in this last third of the pitch the quality of the player and the finishing he has," said Arne Slot to reporters in a press conference.

"I think he always had this and I wasn't even that aware of the fact that (he scored eight league goals last season). For me, he was someone who could score a goal and eight for his quality (is) not of his standards, I would say. I think he just comes back to his normal situation. Maybe he was a bit unlucky last season, but a player of his quality will always score a lot of goals in every season," he said.
