"They are used to the fact that they are top of the league" - Slot on Liverpool success culture

Liverpool, nine points clear of second-placed Arsenal at the top of the Premier League, travel to face mid-table Newcastle on Wednesday. Slot, in his first season at Anfield after replacing Jurgen Klopp, said his men had worked hard for their success.
"If we would have done this by just playing on 50 percent and it's so easy for us, then they might feel, 'Ah, we're just too good for this league'," he said. "But that's definitely not what we feel against every team, no matter if it's City or Liverpool or it was Wolves or Nottingham Forest.
"We had to work really, really, really hard to get the results, and I think that keeps them with both feet on the ground." And the Dutchman said his players were not getting carried away with their breathtaking start to the season, with success part of the "culture" of the club.
"This club, this team, these players are used to the fact that they are top of the league or they are competing for every trophy, so then it helps that they have experienced this," he added.
