Liverpool continued to win the Premier League when they beat Brentford 2-0 at home, with goals from Luis Diaz and Mohamed Salah.
They are one of only four teams to win both of their first two games of the new season, along with Arsenal, Man City and Brighton. In addition, the Anfield team also kept a clean sheet in both matches like Arsenal.
This is also the 6th time in the Premier League that Liverpool have opened the season with 2 wins and 2 clean sheets, while the behind-the-scenes pass rate to Brentford is their most accurate pass rate in a Premier League match since the 2003-2004 season.
Every sign shows that Slot is a talented coach and Liverpool can compete for the Premier League title.
"Liverpool have only played 2 matches, while Ipswich have just been promoted and Brentford is the opponent you look forward to be against. However, the pressure has been relieved. If Klopp remains Liverpool's manager, fans expect them to overcome Arsenal and Man City. With the coach, the pressure on them has been relieved, said Glenn Hoddle, a former England player and coach.
Michael Owen - a former Liverpool player who won the Ballon d'Or and scored 150 goals in the Premier League - believes Slot will face a very difficult season to win the tournament.
Liverpool have started the season well, but so have Arsenal and Man City, he said. This could be the toughest tournament to win. Liverpool need to reach 90 points, have very few margin of error and need to be almost perfect to hope for the championship".
Although the two Liverpool losers are not too famous, Owen is still very impressed with the way his former team won. The former England international believes Slot can replace Jurgen Klopp, who has parted ways with the club for nine years.
He shared: "I am really impressed with Slot. He looked very confident. They have 2 easy wins, 2 clean sheets. I stopped thinking about Klopp leaving. Slot knows what he's doing.
The match between Man United and Liverpool will be very special
But although the season is still too early to draw too many conclusions, Owen, and Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk, all believe Liverpool's trip to Man United on Sunday 1 September could be the first sign of what Liverpool can achieve this season.
Owen added: "If Liverpool beat Man United, people would think Slot was exactly what Liverpool needed. Everyone will be excited when Liverpool come to Old Trafford and win a pressure game, against a big opponent.
Otherwise, people may start questioning, as Liverpool have so far only beaten Ipswich and Brentford. If Liverpool beat Man United, they will have a good run of fixtures after that, and could have won 18-21 with six or seven wins in the start of the season.
Meanwhile, captain Van Dijk is confident in Liverpool's strength. He emphasized: "This is a good start. We have to continue to promote and get ready for a big match next week. The upcoming match is very special. It can change many things.
Meanwhile, Arne Slot said he was happy with Liverpool's start but did not want everything to go too far. He shared: Liverpool have had an encouraging start to the season. Winning against opponents was really difficult because Brentford had a very good opening match last week.
But we still have a lot to prove this season because I have said this many times, both Ipswich and Brentford, we should respect them for the way they play with us, but I don't expect any of the two teams to be in the Top 6.
Therefore, Liverpool still have a lot to do, to prove themselves. But starting the tournament with 2 wins, 2 clean sheets is a very good thing."
The Man United vs Liverpool match will take place at 22:00 on September 1.
