LIVERPOOL and Arne Slot just keep passing each test.
Reds boss Slot said the period between the October and November international breaks would be the real grading moment for his side after a flying start.
Well it's A+, first class, distinction or whatever way you want to mark it.
Since they've returned from the October break, Chelsea, RB Leipzig, Brighton (twice) and Bayer Leverkusen have been beaten.
And the Reds got out of the Emirates with a point after playing below their best against Arsenal.
The next examination of their Premier League title credentials arrives at Anfield tonight when Aston Villa visit.
Given it is a decade since Villa have won a game on Liverpool's patch, there will be expectation that Slot's side will head into the November break still top of the Premier League table.
