SLOT'S INCH PERFECT

Boss will ONLY focus on tiny details Kop need to land title... and not the Anfield immortality that waits

- BY CHRIS MCKENNA X@cmckennasport

ARNE SLOT is on the brink of becoming a Liverpool legend by leading the Reds to the Premier League title.

But while he may be just an “inch” away from Anfield immortality, he remains fully focused on that inch.

The Reds need just a point from tomorrow's home clash with Spurs to be crowned champions.

It will be a record-equalling 20th title for Liverpool and will spark special celebrations on Merseyside.

It also means Slot will join an illustrious list of managers who have led the Anfield club to the biggest prize in English football.

Jurgen Klopp, Kenny Dalglish, Joe Fagan, Bob Paisley, Bill Shankly, George Kay, Matt McQueen, David Ashworth and Tom Watson have gone before Slot as title-winning managers at Liverpool.

But none of those did it in his first season as Kop manager.

Yet, in typical Slot fashion, the Dutchman is refusing to get carried away until the job is done.
