Honestly folks, this might be up there with the Kolo lean. It is almost inexpressible what the significance of this particular rendition is trying to communicate - in an instant, the symbolic imagery evokes a sense of anticipation for the future and the opportunities to come (note how the lower half is partially oriented towards the badge); while the upper half is firmly aimed at the viewer - which represents both the supporters, and the footballing world at large.
Like the Sun and the Moon - yin and yang - the contrasting-parts comprise the whole, and you'll notice the subtle leaning into the wall, which signifies the foundation this new era is built upon, i.e. those giants upon whose shoulders we stand. All signed and sealed within the facial expression: a firm, and held gaze. The mouth positioned as a semi-serious smirk, signifying the excitement and joy to come; but also, when taken together with the eyes - pointed, direct, assured - this shows that there's both an appreciation for the club's past, but also to reveal the serious nature that the role entails.
All in all: Arne Slot is THAT guy.
8.5/10 lean. While Kolo remains on top, this one has taken me by storm, and in a way - this posture almost invites the viewer/supporter to imitate the implied attitude/orientation of the new boss: appreciation for the past, excitement for the future, but with a measure of poise and seriousness to respect the Club and the work required to keep us on our perch.
8.5 ????? 8.5 !?!?!?!?! are you joking ? I can't remember the last time we had such a clear lean, elbow and all, hands together, the turn of the foot ... the shine off the forehead, my friend, this is 9.5 at least
Slot has to lean/ stand that way with legs apart
... blessed with big '*cojones*' 🍊🍊/born that way! (/joke)
... All the best Arne Slot. (*"Na Na Na Na Na"*)

Incredible form here, the slightly bend knee and clasped hands coupled with the locking eyes with every fan through the camera lens makes this a powerful lean from Slot, 10/10
He knew we’d be sizing him up with this picture, and he took to initiative to size every single fan up with it as well. Touché, Slot. Man is going places (winners podium)
The lean!
It's almost an optical illusion with his tracksuit....makes it look like he has the longest legs and shortest torso in the world....Joel Matip legs!
I’m going go struggle to warm to him when he looks exactly like a Project manager at my work who is fucking useless. I’m betting he’s his long lost brother and Slot got all the talent, with his brother (the PM) got none.
Impressive lean, look at that feet positioning, the way his hands are. The stare, this is a legendary lean right there, not even the greats (my uncle with a beer) could match this
WE ARE SO BACK

Beautiful.
It's about time we were fed a lean, I've been starving.
Set us up for some good ol' plane tracking and van action in a few weeks. Can't wait.
If Arne Slot has a million fans, then I am one of them. If Arne Slot has ten fans, then I am one of them. If Arne Slot has only one fan then that is me. If Arne Slot has no fans, then that means I am no longer on earth. If the world is against Arne Slot, then I am against the world.

Feel like this comment got transported from this sub in 2016
In many ways, it did.
🎶 *Drop it* 🎶
Stop. I’m gonna cry.
Oh my God I miss "When I was Liverpool". What a time to be alive😭

Someone wanna help share a link to the Kolo lean? I don’t remember

This is the greatest lean of all time
Oh wow i wasn’t expecting that
One of the best leans, but not even his best. The shower curtain lean is #1.

There is a small part of me that misses the Rodgers years.
It was exciting winning every game 4-3 and online spaces were much better when we were a bit shit tbf
I hope Pepe returned that guys lion king dvd
Me too
We had a particularly exciting left back arriving from Valencia.

phenomenal analysis!
John Oliver? Is that you?
Drugs are bad mmkay
No they're not
Guess you've never seen South Park
Ofcourse I have it's Mr Mackeys infamous drugs are bayyd speech. Just trying to have laugh
Full apologies then good sir. Mr Mackey, while meaning well, was clearly full of shit lol
Genuinely thought earlier today about how much I miss the silliness of the Lean era. Can't believe we're still living in it 😂 fair play, social team.
It can never die so long as we keep the ancient ways alive.
As long as it keeps the engagement machine happy, it will continue!
This is now part of the club'a traditions 😁

Top post has it at 8.5/10 .. how are people upvoting this stuff, 9.5 MINIMUM
"I know you can read my thoughts, boy. Meow Meow Meow Meow Meow Meow"
Don’t be intimidated … try to imagine him in his underwear …
Oh no, he’s hot!
He's Slot, he's hot We know he's got the lot Arne Slot! Arne Slot!
If this chant goes off on live TV I'm gonna actually lose my shit lmao
Now I’m even more intimidated
The lean! It's almost an optical illusion with his tracksuit....makes it look like he has the longest legs and shortest torso in the world....Joel Matip legs!

I'm Australian and this Slot looks like Peter Dutton (one of the worst prick politicians ever). It's brutal
The potato’s never been that shiny
Ah ya beauty
What a lean son, what a lean
That slight shoulder drop...thats a tribute to.bobbi dropping his shoulder and running through the arsenal defence and scoring
Impressive lean, look at that feet positioning, the way his hands are. The stare, this is a legendary lean right there, not even the greats (my uncle with a beer) could match this
I guess you could say he's really leaning into his new job
10/10 lean
Happy cake day!
10/10 lean.
Beautiful. When was the last time we had a proper lean
Solid 9/10 lean that
WE ARE SO BACK [from one lean to another](https://static.independent.co.uk/2022/04/28/17/GettyImages-1394236755.jpg?quality=75&width=1250&crop=3%3A2%2Csmart&auto=webp)
Giving the people what they want!😂
Imagine being an opposition manager, at anfield, 3-0 down at half time. You look over to the Liverpool dugout and this is what you see.
Can we get an analysis
Happy cake day!
I’ve decided I quite like Slot, seems like a great guy. I really hope he cracks on.
Lean on https://youtu.be/rn9AQoI7mYU?si=0DZl05hZF4Ba-UD_
Beautiful. It's about time we were fed a lean, I've been starving. Set us up for some good ol' plane tracking and van action in a few weeks. Can't wait.
I’ve seen better leans, but I heard that he squats with aplomb
He’s proper, just watched the interview on YT. We couldn’t have signed a better man for the job right now - for real
There is no life without lean.
If Arnie was actually completely stuck to something sticky, but acted like he was just leaning confidently to fool the camera guy, he succeeded
What a lean!
Even Alan Partridge would be proud of that one.
What an amazing haircut this blokes got 10/10
How can he lean so casually, yet so confidently? Truly an elite lean. 10/10

He understood the assignment. Clearly has the same ethos as the club
Gives me David Brent vibes ![gif](giphy|GI26PLcTLEUo0)
Games back
Kolo is the lean that all leans are measured against. Kolo/10
Power lean
Happy cake day!
Yeah I see it. I see the vision, I'm convinced. The next 52 prem titles are ours.
Look at that *lean!*
We need Patrick Bateman to comment on this lean
Good lean ![gif](giphy|kwcRp24Wz4lZm)
Happy cake day!
He should grow a beard
A 10 pixel lean. Can't we have actual photographs with actual pixels?
