Controversial? Liverpool’s biggest weapon was benched! Assisted in 6 minutes of appearance and scored 4 goals in the last 3 games

In a focus match of the 8th round of the Premier League that ended in the early morning of October 20, Liverpool lost 1-2 at home to Manchester United, losing 4 consecutive games in all competitions. In this game, Chiesa, who came off the bench, once assisted Liverpool to equalize the score.

Chiesa still did not start this game. Despite the recent poor record of the team, Slott still has a superstitious belief in Gakpo and Salah on both wings. Seeing that the score was behind and the two of them wasted opportunities, Slott finally replaced Chiesa in the 72nd minute.

Only 6 minutes after his debut, Chiesa cooperated with Wirtz and assisted Gakpo to once equalize the score for Liverpool.

In the last three appearances, Chiesa contributed 2 goals and 2 assists to Liverpool. In the League Cup, he provided 2 assists to help Liverpool eliminate Southampton. In the 1-2 loss to Crystal Palace, Chiesa once scored to equalize the score for Liverpool. In the first round of the Premier League, it was Chiesa's buzzer-beater that helped Liverpool get off to a good start.

In the last round loss to Chelsea, Chiesa sat on the bench for 90 minutes. Slott would rather send Japanese midfielder Koyasu Endo to draw the score than dare to use Chiesa. In the end, Liverpool was defeated by the Blues. In the Champions League loss to Galatasaray, Chiesa did not appear on the pitch after being recruited as a replacement.

As Liverpool's currently best and most threatening attacker, Chiesa can only serve as a substitute for Salah and Gakpo. His limited playing time is indeed quite controversial.

Slott is indeed to blame for the team's 4-game losing streak because of his failure to make good use of his players.
