Slot Addresses Wirtz Return, Gakpo Form & VAR

Slot revealed Wirtz is likely to be back after this week's games while carefully managing Jeremie Frimpong's minutes following his return from injury.

On Gakpo, Slot stated: 'I don't think his confidence has gone. But a few times recently he made different decisions than I am used to.' The Liverpool boss also commented on VAR inconsistencies, comparing Lacroix's red card at Man United to Guehi's similar incident at Anfield, noting surprising differences in decisions.
