FINISH IT... OP KOP IT

Boss Slot: If you do not win trophie's, it can haunt you for decades ... just look at Holland at the 1974 World Cup

>> I've no room for fear or nerves. I'll lose games in my life, but never will I lose them for being defensive

ARNE SLOT is warning his Liverpool players that they will be haunted forever if they fail to bring the Premier League title back to Anfield this time.

The runaway leaders will return from the international break 12 points clear at the top of the table with nine games left to play.

But the Reds are reeling after losing to underdogs Newcastle United in the Carabao Cup Final just days after being eliminated from the Champions League on penalties in front of their own fans by Paris Saint-Germain.

Slot knows that the failing in the title race now will be utter torment but insists he's still a manager who will always regard attack as the best form of defence.
