Before the Champions League Liverpool vs Atletico Madrid, Liverpool coach Slott was interviewed by TNT Sports Channel at Anfield Stadium.

Talking about the first time Isaac starter

Slott: "This was originally planned. It was because of this that he did not participate in the game against Burnley so that he could do systematic training in the early stages of joining. The pre-season preparation phase also requires this process - you won't start with a friendly match, but you will have a full training week first, and you can finally play 45 minutes or 60 minutes, which is what we will see today."

Regarding letting Isaac or Ekitic serve as a striker or a winger

Slott: "No, any arrangement is possible, they can do multiple positions. But I think the most suitable position for Isaac is undoubtedly the No. 9. When Ekitic was young, He has also played for the winger, but as he continues to grow in height, although Garkepo proves that tall players can also become excellent wingers, Ekitic is more suitable for activities on the left, and his style is different from Garkepo or Salah. "

" Overall, I think these two players are more inclined to No. 9 than other positions."

Regarding the experience learned from the knockout of the last season's round of 16, Slott: "Not only is it a match against Paris Saint-Germain, what I appreciate is their oppression very aggressive. When they compete in the Ligue 1 (although it is good but not as good as the Premier League) on weekends, they can occasionally rotate players to ensure that all players are in full shape in the mid-week game, and this model may be more advantageous."
