The Arne Slot roadshow keeps rolling on. Cody Gakpo’s double helped the Liverpool manager to make it seven wins from his first eight away matches in all competitions as the holders moved into the quarter‑finals despite making wholesale changes.
Slot could not have wished for a better start to life in English football and he rightly singled out the performance of the Czech goalkeeper Vitezslav Jaros, who made a spectacular save on his full debut when the game was finely poised at 1-0.
