Slot names two things that made him emotional during title celebrations at Anfield
Arne Slot has opened up on the two things that made him emotional during Liverpool's title celebrations at Anfield.
“Two things make me emotional when I look back at that day and the first one is when we arrived at the stadium and all the fans were singing, ‘We’re gonna win the league, we’re gonna win the league and now you’re gonna believe us.’
“It’s not what they sung but it was more how passionately they sung it. That was so, so, so impressive and all of them, it came from deep down inside. It makes me a little bit emotional at this moment, not that I’m going to cry but every time I think about it, it makes me emotional.
“And the second thing that makes me really emotional is the amount of people that told me, ‘I’m going for 45 years to Liverpool, 40 years or all my life to Liverpool but I’ve never experienced Anfield or a special moment like this.’
“[This] is what does make me emotional because I’m not here at the club the only one [to win] for the first time a trophy in 35 years.
“No, this club has had so much success over the course of its whole history and then for people to say that this was one of their special moments and be part of it as a manager… every time someone says to me things like this then I’m like, ‘We really did something special.’
“And yeah, apart from that, the whole stadium celebrating. What makes me emotional is these two things. What makes me really happy looking back at it is the songs that were played – great compliment to the DJ – and to the fans that stayed away from the pitch.
“It was an incredible day and a day that will live forever in my memory.”
