Arne Slot achieves feat managed by likes of Jose Mourinho and Carlo Ancelotti

Arne Slot has won the Premier League with Liverpool in his first season in charge.

Here, the PA news agency looks at the four other managers to have achieved the feat in their debut campaign in England.

Jose Mourinho, 2004-05

The Special One lived up to his self-appointed moniker by winning Chelsea’s first top-flight title in 50 years having arrived after leading Porto to an unlikely Champions League triumph.

The team he inherited had finished second to the Arsenal Invincibles and it was added to with the likes of goalkeeper Petr Cech, Portuguese defenders Ricardo Carvalho and Paulo Ferreira, winger Arjen Robben and striker Didier Drogba.

Chelsea conceded just 15 goals throughout the campaign as they won the title with a then-record 95 points.

Carlo Ancelotti, 2009-10

Ancelotti arrived with an already serious pedigree, having won two Champions League titles and Serie A with AC Milan.

His outlay on players was relatively modest – Nemanja Matic, Daniel Sturridge, Yuri Zhirkov and Ross Turnbull arrived for a combined £23million – but he revitalised a side which had struggled under predecessors Avram Grant, Luiz Felipe Scolari and Guus Hiddink.

The team set new records: most goals scored (103) and best goal difference (+71) as they won the league and FA Cup double.

Manuel Pellegrini, 2013-14

The low-key Chilean took over from the more charismatic Roberto Mancini, who had delivered City’s first Premier League title but failed to successfully defend it.

Pellegrini’s side found themselves in an enthralling title race with Brendan Rodgers’ Liverpool.

The season, during which the lead changed hands 25 times, went down to the final day after Steven Gerrard’s costly slip against Chelsea at Anfield gifted City the initiative and they coasted over the line against West Ham to finish two points clear.

Antonio Conte, 2016-17

Conte became the third Chelsea manager to achieve the feat, having returned to club football after a two-year stint as Italy boss.

His success had come prior to that at Juventus, where he won Serie A in three successive seasons.

Without the distraction of European football Conte could concentrate on domestic matters and 13 successive league wins between October and December laid the platform for their title victory, with summer signings N’Golo Kante, David Luiz and Marcos Alonso making his 3-4-2-1 system operate brilliantly.
