Arne Slot offers his reaction after his Liverpool side left it late to win 2-0 at Brentford in the Premier League thanks to a Darwin Nunez double

Liverpool came out of the blocks quickly at the start of 2024-25 with new manager Arne Slot at the wheel, but have shown glimpses of slowing over recent weeks. Draws against Manchester United and Nottingham Forest in the Premier League came either side of defeat against Tottenham in the first-leg of their Carabao Cup semi-final.

Premier League leaders Liverpool face a difficult away trip against Brentford as they look to return to winning ways. The Reds have suffered a minor dip in form after drawing their last two Premier league games against Manchester United and Nottingham Forest as well as losing to Tottenham in the Carabao Cup semi-final first leg.

Liverpool delivered one of the most dramatic moments of the Arne Slot era with a late, late win at Brentford. The source was unlikely, Darwin Nunez — a much-maligned striker in recent weeks — delivering two injury-time goals to seal victory and tighten his side’s grip at the top of the Premier League.

The likes of Arsenal and Nottingham Forest, both in the top four, are vying for his signature. Per The Telegraph, any potential move may depend on a domino effect of other transfers. For instance, West Ham United are assessing Taiwo Awoniyi from Forest this month. If they bring him in, then Forest would go after Wissa as his long-term replacement.
