Slott: Top Premier League teams have two excellent No. 9 players, and we are no exception

The gap in Liverpool's first half performance in the first half

These are very good players, and we have also performed well in different formations. For me, it's largely because we take the position we want to occupy, because the opponent isn't doing what we expected. Most of the time, we have to make adjustments at halftime because opponents will come up with completely different tactics in the second half, which is normal because most of the teams we face have a week to prepare.

If you're wondering, we only did six-on-two training between the game against Atletico Madrid and today, that's all we've prepared in two days. This is not an excuse, we have a lot of good players, but it is reality. So I can't come up with new tactics. That's why other teams always anticipate what they will encounter when they are playing against us because we don't have that much training time. You don't have to feel bad for me because I have great players.

Everton did what we expected and we took the spot well, which is why I think we could penetrate their defense several times. Normally, we would have better second half performances because we had to make adjustments at halftime because our opponents performed differently in the first half than we expected.
