Arne Slot hails his Liverpool side and insists they could have scored even more against Tottenham but refuses to get carried away in title race

Arne Slot hailed his Liverpool players and insisted that his side could have scored more than the six they put past Tottenham, with victory ensuring they will be top of the Premier League on Christmas Day.

‘It was maybe our best performance away from home although I really liked what I saw against Man Utd as well. It was total dominance and we outplayed them many times,’ said Slot. ‘Apart from scoring six goals, I think we could have scored more.’

In the last seven seasons when Liverpool have been top of the table at Christmas they have only won the league once and their Dutch boss refused to get carried away.
