Agree with you, Arne Slot should maintain the condition of several main players so that in the last 16 they can still perform impressively, fielding second-string players is not bad thing considering that it can also be very useful to add experience to shape the mentality of the second-string players.
So far, whether in the Premier League or UCL, they have shown very perfect quality of performance, don't let problems like what Manchester City and Real Madrid experienced with player crises and getting series of difficulties to achieve victory, it just that we don't know how their ambitions and goals are because Arne Slot could also try to perform well in both competitions.
After Liverpool qualified for the last 16, the burden on Arne Slot became even greater. He must keep his players fit to face strong teams in the knockout stages, while they also have to fight to secure top spot from Chelsea. Player conditions need to be considered, Arne Slot must be wiser in formulating strategies to maintain opportunities in the two competitions. Liverpool have conceded 5 goals in their last 2 games in the EPL, this could happen in the UCL if the players are too tired due to the busy schedule, Arne Slot must anticipate early before it is too late.
After the red card they received early in the match against Fulham, the balance of the game was disrupted. However, Liverpool still managed to draw the match. Yes, they conceded five goals in the last two league matches and they need to work on this. We see that the defense was better in the past. They started making critical mistakes in the last matches. We don't want things to go wrong later when everything is going great for a team like Liverpool. I think coach Arne Slot will definitely take precautions in this regard.
