In the match where Liverpool defeated Brentford 2-0, full-back Arnold was substituted in the 72nd minute of the second half, after which he appeared somewhat unhappy on the bench. Head coach Slot addressed this issue post-match.
Slot said at the post-match press conference, “You say Arnold was unhappy after being substituted? I understand, every player wants to play the full 90 minutes, but I don’t think the players on the bench are happy to see this situation either.”
“Arnold has returned from international matches, initially playing a lot during the early stages of the European Cup, but his playing time decreased later on, then he had a few weeks of vacation. Today is only his third game back with the team, and we need to pay attention to his physical condition. We need his help throughout the entire season, not just the first two games.”
“For me, the good thing is that we have excellent substitutes like Bradley, which means we can give Arnold some rest, although he still played a great game.”
