Arne Slot slammed over Liverpool team selection after shock FA Cup exit Arne Slot was slammed for not naming a stronger bench for Liverpool’s FA Cup clash at Plymouth Argyle as the minnows mastered an all-time giant killing.
Slot will undoubtedly name a much, much stronger team when Liverpool travel to Everton on Wednesday night where a win will put them nine points clear at the top of the Premier League.
But at the end of the day, when he looks back and thinks about it, he might change his mind about one or two things he has done today and one of them would be to have more firepower on the bench.
The likes of Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk and Dominik Szoboszlai were nowhere to be seen, given extra rest ahead of the last Merseyside derby at Goodison Park on Wednesday.
Nevertheless, the starting XI still featured a number of quality first-team players including Luis Diaz and Diogo Jota but Darwin Nunez was only recognisable name on the bench.
