Liverpool boss not getting carried away by his league leaders after 2-1 victory at Wolves
-
 
 Liverpool manager Arne Slot is not getting carried away with his side topping the English Premier League standings after their 2-1 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers on Sept 28, their fourth win in all competitions in less than two weeks.
Slot's side have 15 points from six league games, one point more than reigning champions Manchester City and the 2023-24 season's runners-up Arsenal.
The win at the Molineux was the latest in a string of solid results for Liverpool, who defeated AC Milan 3-1 in the Champions League, beat Bournemouth 3-0 in the league and then crushed West Ham United 5-1 in a League Cup third-round tie.
However, Dutch coach Slot insisted it did not mean Liverpool were definitely title challengers.
"I always try to be realistic and Jurgen's work has been incredible, everybody knows this," Slot said of former manager Jurgen Klopp, who stepped down after the 2023-24 season.
"Two years ago was the last time they played in the Champions League and they finished fifth. Now we have to prove that we can compete in the Champions League and the Premier League.
