• Liverpool boss Arne Slot describes the first half of the Premier League season as a "constant battle" for his team.
• Slot acknowledges Arsenal and Manchester City are "quite far ahead" and Liverpool should not focus on the title race against them.
• Currently 4th, Liverpool trail Arsenal by 12 points and Manchester City by 8, following a 0-0 draw with Leeds.
• Despite being unbeaten in seven league games, Slot states Liverpool are "not flying" and struggle to create chances from possession.
