Arne Slot was brutally honest in his assessment of Liverpool's poor first half against Ipswich Town on Saturday, particularly when name-dropping young central defender Jarell Quansah
Gary Lineker felt “nervous” when Arne Slot publicly criticised Jarell Quansah ’s performance after Liverpool ’s Premier League opener against Ipswich Town. The Reds eventually won 2-0 at Portman Road, but that didn’t stop new manager Slot from speaking openly about Quansah’s shortcomings – something which Lineker claims former boss Jurgen Klopp would never have done. Slot’s first competitive 45 minutes in charge did not go to plan on Saturday as his side were frustrated by newly-promoted Ipswich.
He read out loud Slot’s post-match comments addressing the Quansah substitution, which were: “'The first thing I said at half-time was we don't have to speak about tactics if you lose so many duels, and that's what we did. It's not that Jarell lost every duel, many of us lost too many duels, so we needed Konate to win these long balls in the air towards their No.9 , so that helped and gave us control.
