‘Look into the details’: Arne Slot says new Liverpool full-backs not to blame for defensive lapses

‘Look into the details’: Arne Slot says new Liverpool full-backs not to blame for defensive lapses

The article discusses Liverpool's defensive issues this season under manager Arne Slot. Despite an impressive start to the campaign, Liverpool have conceded seven goals in six league games, compared to just two in the first six games of last season's title-winning season. Slot has refuted the notion that the introduction of two new full-backs, Jeremie Frimpong and Milos Kerkez, is solely to blame for the defensive lapses. Instead, he has identified Liverpool's set-piece defending as an area that needs improvement, as Crystal Palace scored two goals from set-pieces to beat the champions on Saturday. The article emphasizes that the defensive issues are a collective problem, and Slot has called for the team to "look into the details" to address the concerns. The Reds face Galatasaray next, as they aim to bounce back from their recent defeat to Crystal Palace.
