On Jeremy Jacquet, who agreed a summer move to Liverpool earlier this week: "It's very pleasing. Slot added: "From the start he was special on the ball, maybe now he has a better connection with his team-mates because they've played more together. On facing Manchester City: "It's another moment to see where we are in the development of this team. Slot continued: "They're a very good team who were able to win on Wednesday, against a team [Newcastle] we beat at the weekend, not even with their starters. That tells you, combined with the game we played against them, what a force City still is and always will be."
