ARNE SLOT admitted he is not even thinking of reeling in leaders Arsenal or Manchester City right now while his Liverpool side lack the magic touch needed to overhaul their season.

- BY PAUL GORST

The champions extended their unbeaten run in all competitions to eight games with a goalless draw at home to Leeds on New Year's Day.

But it was viewed as a missed opportunity to go five points clear of Chelsea in fifth and to within four of Aston Villa in third ahead of the trip to Fulham tomorrow.

While unbeaten since late November, Slot’s side have struggled to piece together complete performances during this sequence and were unable to exert too much pressure on Leeds in the Reds' first 0-0 draw since December 2023.

“OK, that is not a nice thing to hear,” Slot said of that statistic. “But I think it is clear and obvious that we hardly concede chances any more.
