Arne Slot remains committed to Liverpool's ultra-attacking strategy following their 4-2 victory over Bournemouth, despite Jamie Carragher's concerns about their defensive organization. Liverpool dominated early, leading 2-0 with goals from Hugo Ekitike and Cody Gakpo. However, Bournemouth's Antoine Semenyo leveled the score with two goals, demonstrating vulnerabilities in Liverpool's defense. Slot addressed these concerns by noting the absence of key midfielder Ryan Gravenberch, who was unavailable due to recent personal events. He expressed confidence that a return to full strength would restore balance to the team's midfield.
"I talk about a player who was not available last week or this week. That's Ryan Gravenberch. Last season, he was very, very important in these moments."
"With Alexis Mac Allister only being back for two or three weeks, we lost a little bit of that control from our midfield. But Ryan will be back next week and Macca will be fitter."
