In the fourth round of the League Cup, Liverpool lost 0-3 to Crystal Palace in a major rotation. Slott was interviewed after the game.
Sloter: "I saw Manchester City's starting lineup. Although none of the starting players in the weekend league appeared, this lineup is their strongest configuration. This is very telling. People always talk about how deep our lineup is. When we played against Chelsea, I said that they had 8 players missing, but they could still replace Esteban. Now we only have 4 players missing, and we already need to send 4 U19 starters. After I made two substitutions, there are 6 people on the field."
