Every word Arne Slot said on Jarell Quansah and Federico Chiesa in Liverpool press conference

What does that mean? He had no pre-season because he came back injured from the Euros, so he missed almost a complete pre-season. Which was for most of them only two weeks, but for him it was only a few days. Kostas [Tsimikas] did really well in that period of time.

Tsimikas has featured more frequently than many might have expected 

"It has to do with the quality Kostas brings in that position, but it definitely also has to do with Robbo missing pre-season, so that’s why we started rotating from the start a bit – because if a player didn’t have any pre-season, there was no time to bring him towards the situation where he could play three games in a row. Because we tried to build up our players for that programme and for him that was difficult because he missed out on pre-season, where others were there. That’s his situation and I think it was good for him to play [against] Arsenal and now again the game against Brighton during the week, that makes sure that he’s getting into that rhythm of playing twice a week."
