Arne Slot on Jarell Quansah

Liverpool's new head coach, Arne Slot, has shown a tough approach towards his players, notably substituting young defender Jarell Quansah at half-time during their match against Ipswich Town due to his struggles against Liam Delap. Slot clarified that while he raised his voice at halftime, his decision to substitute Quansah was tactical, not personal, aimed at addressing a team-wide issue of lost duels. Quansah expressed disappointment over being substituted but sought to train on the following day to improve. Slot emphasized that Quansah's performance was not solely to blame for the team's lackluster first half, stating he lost only a couple of significant duels. Despite showing signs of frustration, Quansah's dedication to training reflects a strong desire to develop further. He is now a doubt for the upcoming match against Brentford due to an injury sustained in training.
