Things feel pretty good on the red side of the Mersey at the moment. Arne Slot has slipped seamlessly into the big shoes left by Jurgen Klopp and has Liverpool early leaders in the Premier League.
And when put to the test in Europe, he passed that audition with flying colors, too — they went to the San Siro and dominated when AC Milan played against Liverpool in the first game of the campaign. After falling behind after just a few minutes, goals from Ibrahima Konaté, Virgil Van Dijk and Dominik Szoboszlai propelled the Reds through to a famous win.
It hasn't been such a convincing start to Vincenzo Italiano's reign at Bologna. They have only one league win so far this season in Serie A and were held to a scoreless draw when Shakhtar Donetsk visited the Stadio Renato Dall'Ara two weeks ago.
