  • Jamie Carragher criticised Slot's tactical decision to start with a back-five system, stating it made Liverpool more open than a back-four.
  • Carragher defended Virgil van Dijk, who he said looked "uncomfortable" in the new system, instead stating Ibrahima Konate has been “awful all season” and claiming he “makes a mistake every game”.
