'Can compare': Frank Leboeuf says Liverpool are doing something this season no other team can match
Today at 12:00 PM
Liverpool made it seven wins out of seven in the UEFA Champions League with a 2-1 win against Lille at Anfield yesterday.
The Reds have now booked their place in the Round of 16 of the competition but need at least a point against PSV Eindhoven on matchday eight to guarantee top spot.
Arne Slot has lost just two games since taking over the reigns at Liverpool from Jurgen Klopp and looks set to guide the Reds to silverware at the end of the season.
And now, Frank Leboeuf has heaped praise on the Reds for their performances this season, suggesting that they have no glaring weaknesses.
Frank Leboeuf says Liverpool have no weaknesses under Arne Slot
Slot has refrained from rotating his squad too much in the Premier League and the UEFA Champions League as he continues to get to know his players at Anfield.
However, when the situation called for it, he has made in-game changes that have positively affected the outcome of games.
Darwin Nunez came on as a second-half substitute to win Liverpool the game against Brentford with a brace, while Harvey Elliott scored the winner off the bench against Lille.
Leboeuf feels Liverpool’s squad depth separates them from the rest of the teams in Europe as he suggested the Reds don’t have any glaring weaknesses.
"Even their bench is strong, every time somebody comes on, his performance – there's nothing much to say,” said Leboeuf on ESPN UK.
“We can compare with any other team. Every team has a problem but Liverpool. Even if they have injuries, they can substitute somebody and he's going to be effective. So I don't see anybody better than Liverpool this season."
What next for Liverpool?
Despite the result, Slot said he wasn’t happy with the goal Liverpool conceded vs Lille, which is a sign that there’s still some work to be done in the training ground.
The Reds are guaranteed to play in the Round of 16 but will look to beat PSV Eindhoven and seal top spot.
In the Premier League, Liverpool return to action on Saturday as they prepare to face Ipswich Town at Anfield to continue their title challenge.
