Arne Slot broke more Liverpool records on Wednesday as his side beat RB Leipzig 1-0 in the Champions League.
It has been a near-perfect start to life at Anfield for Slot, who has so far made light work of the challenge of replacing Jurgen Klopp in the dugout on the red side of Merseyside.
Wednesday's victory over Leipzig means Liverpool have now won 11 of their first 12 games of the season for the first time ever. A shock 1-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest is the only blot on an otherwise-perfect record.
It was also the sixth-straight away victory to start a season - another feat which has never been accomplished in Liverpool history.
"We should be proud because so many great teams have worn this shirt and so many great managers have been at the club, so to achieve something that hasn't been done before is almost impossible and always nice," Slot said.
"But there is something that is much nicer than records and you know what I mean by that trophies."
Slot went on to confess that he was impressed by his team's response to what was an unconvincing victory over Chelsea at the weekend.
"I don't think we started the game very well but after the first 15 minutes I liked a lot of what I saw," Slot continued.
"We played through their press and opened up attacks many times, which led to the first goal and many other chances. It is a pity at the end of a game like that when you need big roles from your two centre-backs and goalkeeper. A game like that should have been ours after 60 to 70 minutes.
"It is good to see all of our players scoring. In the lead up Cody [Gakpo] and Mo [Salah] were just as important as Darwin. But Darwin was strong, comfortable on the ball, fighting if he had to defend, and he made it very difficult for the two centre-backs of Leipzig.
"If you play a big team away they will always have moments. I liked that in this game we had total dominance like in all the other games apart from Chelsea. I was more worried after Chelsea. This was much more how I like to see my team play. We had much more ball possession."
