Slott: McCa said it would be better to give him a 6 position, we found that Heraffen is very suitable

May 8th Liverpool coach Slot recently revealed to the media that he had discussed plans such as on-court position with McAllister and Heraffenberg before the start of the season.

Slott said: "I asked Heraffenberg if he could return to the team a few days earlier than planned, because we were going to play a few friendly matches in the United States and I was curious to know how he performed in his position. After returning from the United States, we only had two games left, and I remember it was Sevilla and Las Palmas, so I didn't have much time to try it.

"In fact, I've talked with most players in the summer, almost all of them." McCa told me that he didn't mind playing No. 6. He played well last season, but he prefers having a No. 6 standing behind him so that he can perform at his best, which is why we are very interested in signing a No. 6 player.

"Later, Heraffenberg came back a day or two earlier, although I hope he could get a few more days ahead of time. Then in a friendly match against Manchester United, we let him play the defensive midfield position. I immediately liked the arrangement because he was very comfortable in possession. If you look back at that game, you will find that when he received the pass, someone tried to press him, he used his body to protect the ball, and the pressing player didn't even find where the ball was.

"I think this is a very good feature, and then we need to see if he is tough enough in the early stages of the season. It turns out he did a great job, and I think he is one of the players who contributed the most interceptions now. ”

When talking about what other aspects of Heraffenberg need to be improved, Slott said: “It may be touching the ball within one or two feet, and finding the teammates behind him. Maybe he can take Van Dijk as a role model, and in my opinion Van Dijk is our best player in these aspects, and he can quickly find his teammates behind him. But Herafenberg has done a very good job, that's for sure. ”
