Talking about the team's transfer operations at the beginning of this summer, Slot said: "What people tend to ignore is that we also lost four main players, which is not normal. Ideally, we hoped (completed the transfer earlier) but it was difficult. I was really happy that we were able to bring in these players now. You certainly hope that new players can play as good as possible, but it would be difficult to face Crystal Palace. They beat Aston Villa and Manchester City on the way to winning the FA Cup, and we all know how strong it will be when a team is in full so we have a tough challenge."
When asked about the integration of new players, Slot continued: "I'm very happy with them. It's not just their own credit, but the players who stayed there are, too. Helped a lot because the team has a very good team atmosphere. We lost Arnold, Louis Diaz and Nunez, and the loss of these experienced players will have an impact. But I can tell you that the players we introduced have the strength to play for Liverpool. "
When asked whether our team will sign another central defender, Slot responded: "We have enough choices in this position, but if we see the right opportunity in the transfer market, we will take action without hesitation."
Regarding the memory of Jota, Slot finally said: "After such a tragedy, the cohesion displayed by the fans and the respect for this excellent player and kind person are incomparable to any club in the world. Jota is completely worth it."
