How does Liverpool’s Arne Slot incorporate Florian Wirtz, Hugo Ekitike and other new faces into squad?

The Premier League season may be less than a month away, but if Liverpool Navigate through the preseason, coach Arne Slot has many questions to answer, some of which have been shown to Milan in a chaotic 4-2 loss on Saturday. Although the results of the preseason take place in a vacuum, it does not change that the Reds will fit this season in about four new starters in a title -winning team. After he had eradicated the last campaign of the Premier League title, but did not go as far as they wanted in cup competitions, Liverpool added some four new starters to the team this season and can add it even more depending on What happens to Alexander Isakwhile Luis Diaz is linked to Bayern Munich.

Looking at a predicted XI for Liverpool in the coming campaign, based on Diaz leaves, it would look like this:

Liverpool predicted XI: Alisson, Miloz Whez, Virgil van Dijk, Ibrahima Konate” Jeremie FrimpongRyan Gravenberch, Alexis Mac Allister, Dominki Szoboszlai, Florian Wirtz” Hugo Ekitike

These are many new faces to integrate in less than a month, and quite a few where their best roles are not in positions that Liverpool has in their standard 4-3-3 setup. Gravenberch can offer some flexibility that move between midfield and the defense, but when several players are at their best in a 3-4-3, it seems that the Reds will eventually migrate to. The problem is in a tight Premier League race, Slot has to press the right buttons again with a target on their backs, while the expected improved competition of the expected improved competition is Chelsea” Arsenal and Manchester City.

Playing in the Premier League constantly means to stay at the top again, which is why there is more pressure in this coming season than last season. To replace Jurgen Klopp, the Reds were expected to take a step back, but the capacity of lock to create a repeatable system that she put forward in the competition in January, and it was one that they would not give up, so that teams would keep the second half of the campaign diving, even if their own form fell.

This time there are already information about what Liverpool wants to do, and with Trent Alexander-Arnold Now in Madrid, Chance Creation will have to move further to the pitch. Wirtz can bring that, but with Leverkusen he was used as a double 10 to ensure that he stepped on the ball to make things happen.

Last season Liverpool didn’t really use a 10, and to start this campaign in any case, they may still not be with Wirtz who starts versus Milan as a striker. Because he is so high on the field, he can be blocked from the game and the Reds can suffer. The expectations of Wirtz are high, but he is also still 22 and cannot do it all alone, where the adjustments of lock should come into play. The expectations are high with how much has been invested to keep Liverpool at the top of the competition, but now it is locked to make the required adjustments in a short time to keep them there.
