"We have players that are world class and that can be put in any situation and will perform, so I don't see any problem, the Liverpool forward said. If Crystal Palace wants to play long ball and long throw-ins they are more than welcome to do so, because we're going to answer them with high intensity and winning duels, and trying to win."
"It's many reasons and there's not just one thing, he said. We're not winning. At the beginning of the season we were winning and no one was questioning this and that. Unfortunately it's not [a good time] but I always think positive and I hope we're going to bounce back. We have the quality and the players to do so and we have a fantastic manager so I don't see any trouble. I hope there's not going to be any trouble in the future."
Federico Chiesa insisted Liverpool's current problems are not long term and that the team will have answers to Crystal Palace's long-ball and long-throw tactics. Liverpool lost twice to Palace this season, including a Selhurst Park defeat that began a sequence of five defeats in six games. Arne Slot faces a selection dilemma ahead of the Carabao Cup tie because of injuries and recent results. Slot acknowledged that Liverpool have yet to solve problems posed by low blocks, set pieces and long balls. Chiesa said Liverpool have world-class players who can perform and that winning breeds winning, expressing confidence in a bounce back.
