ARNE SLOT insists he has had no choice this season other than to keep tinkering with his title-winning team.
ARNE SLOT insists he has had no choice this season other than to keep tinkering with his title-winning team. The Reds have undergone a significant overhaul, with almost £450m worth of arrivals and a raft of squad regulars departing. The situation has been exacerbated by injuries and a lack of proper preseason for players such as £125m Alexander Isak.
Liverpool's inconsistent selection contributed to a recent run of six defeats in seven for Slot (inset) before notching successive home wins against Aston Villa and Real Madrid.
Ahead of tomorrow's trip to Manchester City, Slot - who welcomed Isak back to training yesterday after a fortnight out with a groin problem - explained his heavy rotation policy.
"I'm known as being a manager who prefers not to change, but I couldn't do any different," he said.
"We brought new players in who have to adapt. Ryan Gravenberch missed the first two games, Alexis Mac Allister was out preseason, Conor Bradley wasn't able to play, Jeremie Frimpong couldn't play many games.
