Former centre-forward Daniel Sturridge praised Slot and his players in the aftermath of the draw.
And Gary Neville is the latest pundit to come out in support of Liverpool after they drew 0-0 with Arsenal.
Gary Neville thinks Liverpool shocked Arsenal with second-half display
The meeting in North London began with Slot’s team incredibly deep, and most players tracking back as far as their own box.
Half-time came with Liverpool hardly getting forward and Arsenal dominating the possession.
That changed in the second half, however, which Neville thinks shocked the home outfit.
As per Sky Sports, he said: “Everybody watching, but brilliant what Liverpool did in the second half.
“It’s very difficult to actually turn the performance around when you’re so defensively minded, like they were, to go and then flip it into a dominating possession-based performance in the second half.
“That was the big surprise. I think that shocked Arsenal.”
What would you say to Gabriel Martinelli if you had the chance TONIGHT? 😡

Liverpool’s Premier League finish predicted after Arsenal
Whether Thursday’s match is the start of a turnaround or just a false dawn is yet to be decided.
But what still seems obvious is that after failing to beat Arsenal, Liverpool’s Premier League title defence is over.
Opta make Arteta and co. heavy favourites for the crown, giving them an 86.98% chance of finishing first this season.
Manchester City (8.62% title chance) are predicted a second-place finish, while Aston Villa (4.21% title chance) are backed to take third place.
Liverpool, meanwhile, are expected to secure the final Champions League place, but their Premier League title chances sit at just 0.16% after the Arsenal draw.
