Liverpool: So, Arne Slot had a press conference today, right before the big game against Manchester United. He was mainly talking about Trent Alexander-Arnold and the injury updates. You know how it goes, everyone’s curious about Trent, especially with all the chatter about him possibly leaving.
Slot made it clear that Trent isn’t going anywhere this month. He’s committed to the team, and that’s a relief for fans. When asked about resting players, he was pretty firm. He said it’s a big game and he doesn’t plan to take it lightly. He believes Manchester United has better players than their current league position suggests.
He also mentioned that there’s always room for improvement for every player, including Trent. He’s seen some good progress in Trent’s game this season, especially defensively. And yes, he’s spoken to Trent about the Real Madrid rumors, but he kept the details private, as he usually does.
On the injury front, Joe Gomez is out for a few weeks, but there’s some good news with Conor Bradley and Ibrahima Konate training again. The rest of the squad seems fit, which is great heading into such an important match.
Slot also showed some sympathy for Manchester United’s manager, Ruben Amorim, acknowledging how tough the job can be. He praised his own players, especially Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk, highlighting their importance and experience in big games.
As for the game plan against United, Slot emphasized the need to outwork the opponent and be prepared for anything. He knows every match in the Premier League is a challenge, and this one will be no different.
