Kostas Tsimikas and Andy Robertson have rotated in recent weeks at left-back; a similar thing can be said for Trent Alexander-Arnold and Conor Bradley on the right-hand-side. Ibrahima Konate and Virgil van Dijk are the centre-back pairing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More:\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2024\/09\/23\/liverpool-trent-alexander-arnold-contract-update\/\" target=\"_self\">\u2018Superb\u2019 Liverpool Star Makes Bold Statement on Future Amidst Contract Expiry Fears<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2024\/09\/04\/ryan-gravenberch-transformation-liverpools-midfield\/\" target=\"_self\">Ryan Gravenberch<\/a> and Alexis Mac Allister usually pair in central midfield, though the Argentinian was rested for Curtis Jones in midweek. Dominik Szoboszlai is Slot&#8217;s attacking midfielder.<\/p>\n<p>Slot&#8217;s first-choice wingers have been Cody Gakpo and Mohamed Salah for the last couple months, though Luis Diaz was given a start against Lille on the left rather than in his usual position of striker.
