Liverpool Fans on X (formerly Twitter) are unhappy with Arne Slot's decision to fall Alexander Isak and Florian Wirtz for their Premier league Clash against Everton on Saturday September 20. The manager chose to stick to Hugo Ekitike, who started in all the championship matches, and moved Dominik Szoboszlai in the midfield.

Slot stayed with Alisson in order, with Virgil Van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate playing in the heart of the defense. Conor Bradley arrives at the right back, while Milos Kerkez, who was removed in the first half against Burnley and bench against Atletico Madrid, begins on the left.

Ryan Gravenberch keeps his place in the midfield, with Szoboszlai and Alexis Mac Allister as partners. Mohamed Salah And Cody Gakpo is on the wings, with Ekitike leading the attack.

The programming sees Liverpool's record signatures, Florian Wirtz and Alexander Isak, being a bench for the Merseyside derby. Many fans believe that the duo should have started the game and posted:

Liverpool won the last four derbies of Merseyside in Anfield, keeping a white leaf in all matches. Their last defeat against Everton at home in the Premier League was back in 2021, when Richarlison and Gylfi Sigurðsson marked to ensure a 2-0 victory for the Toffees.

Arne Slot has spoken of a possible change in training to accommodate two Liverpool stars

Liverpool manager, Arne Slot, spoke to the media before the Merseyside derby and admitted that he wanted to continue playing with the training 4-3-3. However, it is open to go to a 4-4-2, if the players are not available and said (via Club website):

“I consider, of course, because you consider a lot of things and it always depends on how they are doing well, so if the two are in the best form of their life, you would even consider it more, playing them together. But it is also clear that we have a certain structure, which was mainly 4-3-3 [and] Playing with three fields in the field, but the number of times we have, in the final phase of the game, played with two nine, it also happened a lot. “”

“Hugo can also play the left differently from Cody [Gakpo] or rio [Ngumoha] And that's the right thing about our team, we have several options. But first of all, they must all stay in shape to have these options and if some of them are not in good shape, we may have to use them both in a 4-4-2. It all depends on their form and the number of players we have. All are in good shape now and I think I may be choosing between 21 players, so it's completely normal. It's not that it is far too much. “”

Liverpool is at the top of the Premier League table with four victories of so many games this season.
