Liverpool boss Arne Slot on whether Andy Robertson would be fit to face Manchester City and his combination in recent games with Florian Wirtz down the left
AXA Training Centre, Liverpool, UK

00:00Just ask about your left-hand side as well, because obviously Florian put in a really good performance the other night.
00:05Is that the way forward for him, playing from the left now rather than the 10?
00:09And just checking on Andy Robertson, is he able to go again after starting the last two games in a week as well?
00:16He started three games in seven days, because he also played the game against Crystal Palace,
00:23where I also played a few starters, not many, I had to take him off at the end of the game.
00:33For me it felt, because I felt he was tired, but we had to wait and see, we had recovery the day after.
00:40We were a day off yesterday and now a two-day lead-in to City.
00:43So let's see where he is today, and Florian can play on more than only one position,
00:51so he can play off the left, which he did almost all the time in Leverkusen,
00:56when Xabi Alonso came and introduced this 3-4-3 system, or the way you want to call that system.
01:02And before that he mainly played as a 10 in the 4-3-3.
01:06So I think it's more about getting him in the positions where he's good at,
01:11than we should be so focused on is he a 10, is he an 11 or is he an 8.
01:17I think we would like to have him in and around the 18-yard box, centrally,
01:24or a bit more of the left or a bit more of the right,
01:27for him to create the amount of chances he's already created for us.
