Arne Slot named Premier League Manager of the Month for November

The Liverpool head coach claims the award for the first time since taking charge of the club

Arne Slot has been awarded the Premier League Manager of the Month for November, marking his first time receiving the accolade since taking charge at Liverpool.

The Dutchman guided the Reds to a flawless record in the league during the month, with three consecutive wins.

His side showed resilience by coming from behind to secure a 2-1 victory over Brighton & Hove Albion at Anfield, followed by a commanding 2-0 triumph against Aston Villa at home.

Slot’s men capped off the month with another dramatic comeback, defeating Southampton 3-2 on the road.

Slot beat competition from Brighton’s Fabian Hurzeler and Wolverhampton Wanderers’ Gary O’Neil to claim the honour.

“It’s always nice to win something because it means you have won a lot of games, and that is by far the most important thing,” said Arne Slot. “So, winning a trophy like this is the result of winning games – and that’s what I like most.”

On the award being a collective recognition for his whole staff, Slot added: “It is, because we win a lot and that’s mostly because of our players but it’s definitely also because of our staff and the programme we have and the facilities we have over here.

“My staff and players will tell you, all of them, that they put a lot of effort in to make the players on a daily basis maybe a bit better. It’s not going to work every day but we try to every day.

“And it’s not only my technical staff – it’s the performance staff, it’s the medical staff. Ali [Alisson Becker] gave compliments about the medical staff as well, how much they helped him to come back fit.

“It’s a team performance, not only from the players but definitely also from our staff.”
