Cody Gakpo's impressive brace propelled Liverpool to a victory over Brighton in the Carabao Cup, allowing the reigning champions to advance to the quarter-finals. Under the guidance of manager Arne Slot, Liverpool has now achieved an impressive record of seven wins in their first eight away matches across all competitions, despite making significant changes to the lineup for this match. Slot's start in English football has been nothing short of remarkable, and he praised the standout performance of goalkeeper Vitezslav Jaros. The Czech keeper made a stunning save during his full debut, which proved crucial as the match was tightly contested at 1-0.

Darwin Núñez's goal secured a victory for Liverpool against Leipzig, helping the team maintain their perfect start to the season. While it may be premature to evaluate Liverpool's overall potential or the new Champions League format, the early results under head coach Arne Slot are impressive. Liverpool has achieved a remarkable feat, winning 11 of their first 12 matches this season and claiming victory in all six of their away games. Their latest triumph came from a close-range finish by Núñez against a Leipzig side struggling in the Champions League, having yet to earn a point. With three wins from three matches in the competition, Liverpool is on the verge of advancing to the next stage.

Mohamed Salah's spectacular goal secured a victory for Liverpool against Bologna in a tightly contested match at Anfield. Under the leadership of new head coach Arne Slot, Liverpool is experiencing a surge of confidence, quality, and momentum. Slot has made history by becoming the first Liverpool manager to achieve eight wins in his first nine matches. In this match, Alexis Mac Allister celebrated his first Champions League home game for Liverpool by scoring his first goal of the season. Salah later silenced Bologna's hopes of snatching a point with a breathtaking strike in the second half, further extending his record as Liverpool's top scorer in European competitions. This match also marked Liverpool's 250th appearance in the Champions League/European Cup. While a new era begins with a new leader, Liverpool's dominance on the European stage remains firmly intact.
