Liverpool manager Anislo admits he has tried to influence referees during matches this season but his efforts have not yielded any results.
In a press conference on Tuesday, Slot explained his approach to creating a beleaguered spirit at Anfield, which he hoped would inspire officials to favor his team in certain situations.
“You try to influence as much as you can,” Slot said.
“The mistake you've made twice here and once or twice in Holland is that sometimes creating an atmosphere where the whole world is against you, you think you can make positive decisions after the game.
“But it's been like that for the whole 90 minutes of Chelsea and Fulham so far.
“After we tried to dominate things a bit, the referee immediately gave us a free kick or two.
“No, He kept it that way the whole match. I know it won't work, But sometimes you think: 'Could I influence this a bit?' But it didn't help at all.”
“They make better decisions than referees” 😂

Slot, who succeeded Jurgen Klopp as Liverpool's manager in the summer, will be banned for Wednesday's Carabao Cup match against Southampton.
Slot's suspension comes after collecting three yellow cards in his first 17 games in English football.
The Dutchman noted that it was unusual for him, although he admitted that emotions can sometimes get the better of him in tournaments.
“You're always reflecting, but I'm generally calm,” Slot added.
“I don't know if it's smart to say that.” But there is also a limit for me. Let's put it that way.
“Then I get emotional and unfortunately, This limit is only reached by the decisions of the referees or the decisions of my players.”
When there is no more slot, His assistant Sipke Hulshoff will take charge of the side when Southampton face Liverpool.
Saints also parted ways with manager Russell Martin following Sunday's 5-0 defeat by Tottenham Hotspur.
