Slot began his Liverpool campaign with two comfortable wins over Ipswich Town and Brentford. However, it was the Reds' 3-0 win over Manchester United at Old Trafford on Sunday that is their most impressive win so far as they dominated their bitter rivals. Luis Diaz scored a brace and Mohamed Salah also got on the scoresheet to maintain their perfect start to the season.

With this latest clean sheet, Slot has now emulated a record of Sven-Goran Eriksson's. In 2007, the Swede won his first three Premier League games with Manchester City without conceding a single goal, per Opta. Slot becomes the first manager to do the same since Eriksson 14 years ago.
DID YOU KNOW?
Slot also became the first Liverpool manager to win his first away league game against Manchester United in 88 years. The last Reds manager to do so was club legend George Kay, who won his first league match at United in 1936.
WHAT NEXT FOR SLOT?
The Dutch manager will now have two weeks to work with the rest of his squad thanks to the international break. The Reds will return to action against Nottingham Forest on September 14.
