“He is playing here, he spends an excellent season, like many, many other players are also here,” said Slot. “It probably shows you how much you have a manager, and what a big sports director you had, or always, I don’t know how the fact now, he brought very good players and this manager works with them in a way Incredible because he takes out the best of each player, including the one you just mentioned.
“But I’m not talking about an individual, he all comes out of his game right now.”
By being able to overcome Bournemouth on their own lawn, the former owner of Feyenoord added: “If you want to win here against such a competitive team, you need a team performance and a work rate.
“This is what we have and you need quality people who make the difference for you and this objective of Mo [Salah] was an absolute quality and the backups that Alisson also made. But it is not only them, the way in which our central defenders defended themselves again today was also impressive. “”
