Slot believes Manchester City will continue climbing the table

Manchester City's dip in form during the autumn surprised many. However, with the team now regaining momentum, Liverpool head coach Arne Slot is confident that this is just the beginning of their resurgence.

Details: The Dutchman admitted he was also surprised to see City out of the title race but noted that their recent performances and squad reinforcements suggest that they still have plenty to play for.

Quote: “Yes, I think everyone is surprised that Manchester City is not fighting for the title. They have been in the race for so many years, they have a manager who has proven he can compete every single season. So, I don’t think anyone expected them to be this far behind us.

But they are slowly climbing the table, they were good against Newcastle, they signed three or four quality players. So, I expect them to be higher, and next season as well. Yes, I was surprised by their struggles because they had two tough months, but now they have started their recovery,” Slot told Sky Sports.

Reminder: Previously, Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola was forced to respond to Jamie Carragher’s joke during a press conference.
