Arne Slot insists he is completely happy with his squad both in terms of size and quality after he was accused of ‘making excuses’ over this on Wednesday night.
Slot irked fans of both Liverpool and rivals when he discussed the depth of rivals Manchester City, Arsenal and Chelsea after his own Carabao Cup squad saw him make 10 changes and leave most senior stars out of the matchday party altogether.
It was a talking point given Liverpool, who are on a run of six losses in seven games, had spent £446million in a record-breaking transfer window.
