Overview
- Arne Slot said Liverpool’s set-piece record makes it impossible to finish in the top four or compete for the title.
- He noted that at the midpoint of last season Liverpool had not conceded a single goal from a set piece.
- Liverpool host Wolverhampton on Saturday at 16:00 on Sky in their final league match of the year.
- Selection is stretched: Alexander Isak is out with a broken leg; Mohamed Salah is at the Africa Cup; Joe Gomez, Wataru Endo and Dominik Szoboszlai are unavailable; Cody Gakpo and Conor Bradley are doubtful.
- Slot urged the available players to roll up their sleeves, with Sportbild reporting 11 set-piece goals conceded and only three scored this season.
