    Two ‘great’ Liverpool figures who Daniel Sturridge identifies will ease Arne Slot’s ‘transition’

    A hectic summer is ahead at Anfield with Arne Slot taking over as manager

    A hectic summer is ahead at Anfield with Arne Slot taking over as manager of Liverpool starting on Saturday. Daniel Sturridge thinks having important people around will make a difference.

    Despite Jurgen Klopp’s departure, former Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge thinks the team is in good hands. With the commencement of a new era at Anfield, Arne Slot’s tenure as the Reds’ new head coach officially began on Saturday.

    The players at Liverpool won’t be back together for another month as Slot and new sporting director Richard Hughes have some important transfer market decisions to make.

    For Liverpool and its FSG owners, who have entirely reorganised its football department, this summer is going to be a major one. Michael Edwards, who was previously the CEO of Football, has rejoined the team, as has Julian Ward, who took his post at Anfield.

    Although their responsibilities will go beyond what is going on in Merseyside, their top concern will be making sure Slot has all the resources he needs to make the transfer go smoothly. Additionally, Sturridge expresses confidence about Edwards’ attendance with FSG president Mike Edwards.

    Regarding Klopp’s exit, the former striker said to The Times: “He accomplished amazing feats.” Those, in my opinion, were not the expectations upon his arrival. He developed wonderful relationships with individuals.

    He will go down as possibly the best Liverpool manager of all time. The club is now going through a change of phases. Players expiring their contracts, a new manager—it’s just that kind of season. “However, the backstage crew is incredible.

    Gordon and Edwards are two Mikes I know quite well. They have undoubtedly evaluated the manager they have hired and are aware of how well his management style fits the present team. They are also likely keeping an eye on players they would like to recruit. I don’t think Liverpool will lose this time.

    Gordon will be replaced by Edwards in overseeing FSG’s football operations on a daily basis. So long as there are intentions to add another club to the sporting portfolio, Liverpool will come under his purview.

    According to Liverpool.com, the Arne Slot era has officially begun. Although the preseason doesn’t begin for another month, Liverpool is probably going to have a lot going on before then. After joining the team again, Edwards will play a significant part because he has demonstrated his ability to be effective and successful in the past. However, Liverpool must now focus on the future, which, as Sturridge notes, seems to be good.

    Liverpool has had a fantastic recent run of results. Having played for both Manchester City and the Reds, Daniel Sturridge has expressed his opinions on the title fight.

    Liverpool’s victory versus Manchester United on Sunday would allow them to reclaim the top spot in the Premier League. On Saturday, the Reds’ opponents for the title, Manchester City and Arsenal, respectively, defeated Brighton and Crystal Palace, each with three points.

    Arsenal is currently ahead once more and has a superior goal differential after Mikel Arteta’s team kept another clean sheet. Now that the season is entering its last two months, Daniel Sturridge has given his forecast on the championship race.

    After rising through the ranks at City, he spent seven years at Anfield, where under Jürgen Klopp, he helped Liverpool win the Champions League in 2019.

    Before the game on Sunday at Old Trafford, Sturridge said to NBC Sports, “You can’t be sure who’s going to win the title, so everyone has got a bit shaky right now.” All three are in their element and everyone is aware of the stakes.

    “Man City’s background will be important, but Arsenal is also eager and wants it.” After what transpired in the previous season, most of these players are hungry and confident they can win their first title.

    “Liverpool hopes to repeat as Premier League winners in Jürgen’s final season. They did so recently.” In other words, each squad really needs the intangibles. Although Man City is trying to make history, the other two have a great deal on the line.

    When asked for his prediction, Sturridge responded, “I’m going to go with Liverpool.” It’s not prejudiced! My instinct is telling me that right now.”

    Arsenal manager Arteta was questioned about the title push that failed to materialise in the latter months of the previous season after his team’s victory against Brighton. You can see that we are older, especially with me,” Arteta said to Sky Sports.

    We had many difficult times together, and as a team, you grow. Although we also signed some amazing players, this is a positive time since the team is healthy and there is a positive vibe and enthusiasm all around. We’ve previously been through that, so I think that helps.”

    According to Liverpool.com, although the final stretch will be nerve-wracking, Liverpool has set itself up nicely to win the championship. Although Liverpool has more experience and is more motivated in Klopp’s last season as manager, City does have the experience. Sturridge was a player for both teams, thus he is impartial. Of course, Arsenal appears to be highly dangerous at the moment as well.
