A massive positive for Arne slot was Premier League\u2019s most expensive signing Alexander Isak scored his first goal for the club.

Liverpool continued their strong start under Arne Slot with a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Southampton in the Carabao Cup third round last night. The win secured their place in the next round of the competition and highlighted the impact of their new attacking signings.<\/p>\n
Premier League\u2019s most expensive summer signing, Alexander Isak, finally opened his account for the Reds with a clinical finish, giving fans a glimpse of his quality. Meanwhile, Hugo Ekitike, who joined from Eintracht Frankfurt earlier this season, maintained his fine form by finding the net once again.<\/p>\n
The Saints tried to push back, but Liverpool\u2019s solid control and clinical edge proved enough to seal the win. For Slot, the biggest positive was seeing both of his new strikers deliver when it mattered, suggesting that Liverpool\u2019s frontline could be a real force this season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
